What SerialBot does
SerialBot has one job, stated plainly in its own about text: "Bot will help you track the release dates of new episodes of your TV shows." Add the series you are following, and it watches release schedules for you, sending a notification when a new episode is about to premiere so you never lose track of a show you meant to keep up with across a long hiatus between seasons.
It is purely a notification and tracking tool — there is no built-in player, no video content and no links to watch anything, legally or otherwise. That narrow scope means it slots in neatly alongside whichever streaming service or broadcaster you actually use to watch, rather than competing with it.
Support is handled by a single named contact rather than a company, which is typical for a small independent utility bot like this one; treat it as a lightweight, free companion for schedule tracking rather than a full-featured entertainment platform.
