Prowlarr¶

Prowlarr is an indexer manager that integrates with the arr ecosystem (Radarr, Sonarr, etc.) and also works standalone with CLI_Debrid. It's an alternative to Jackett with a more modern UI and native arr sync.

Prerequisites¶

Prowlarr installed and running
At least one indexer configured in Prowlarr

Notes¶

Prowlarr and Jackett serve the same purpose — you don't need both
Prowlarr has better UI and native sync with Radarr/Sonarr if you use those
Jackett supports more obscure indexers if you need them
