Overview
Linking your streaming services tells ReelRifter what content is available to you right now. This powers availability badges on every title, AI recommendation filters, leaving-soon alerts, and the Cost Optimizer's value calculations.
Setting Up Services
Go to Settings โ Streaming Services or open the Cost Optimizer at /optimizer. You'll see a grid of all major streaming services โ Netflix, Max, Disney+, Hulu, Apple TV+, Peacock, Paramount+, AMC+, Shudder, and more. Toggle each service on and enter your monthly subscription price.
Monthly Price Entry
Entering your actual monthly price (or your share of a shared plan) allows the Cost Optimizer to calculate your Cost Per Hour and Cost Per Title watched. This surfaces which services are giving you the most value based on your actual viewing habits.
