Data sources and accuracy

ReelSeek merges provider signals from TMDb’s watch-provider data and Watchmode into one normalized answer per title, per country. Sources are matched to the tracked services by identity and alias, deduplicated, and labelled by availability type (subscription, rent, buy, free, or ads). Results are cached briefly for speed and carry a last-checked timestamp so you can judge freshness.

Country-specific answers use each source’s regional data for the selected market. Where a provider is absent from an upstream catalogue (currently Watch It in TMDb’s provider data), search filtering for that provider is limited and ReelSeek shows a warning rather than pretending the gap doesn’t exist. Regional Middle-East services (OSN+, Shahid, Watch It, TOD) do not operate in the US, UK or Canada and correctly show as unavailable there.

Streaming licenses change on the providers’ schedules; catalogue databases observe those changes with a delay. That means a title can occasionally show as available shortly after leaving a service, or take a short while to appear after arriving. Treat ReelSeek as the fastest way to a very reliable shortlist — and confirm on the provider’s page (one tap away) before paying for anything.

Spotted a wrong result? Report it via the support page with the title, country, and service — reports are checked against the upstream sources and help improve provider matching.

ReelSeek is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or partnered with any streaming provider. A machine-readable summary of these facts is available at /api/public/reelseek.json.
