Is there software that tracks movies and TV shows I've watched and lets me manually add them to my library?

I use Jellyfin, but it lacks this feature. I'm looking for a solution that allows me to create placeholders for shows or seasons I've watched elsewhere, without having to download or create empty MP4 files.

It would be even better if this software integrates with Jellyfin.

The best one I know of is JustWatch. Its an app you can install on your Phone or on your Smart TV. It tracks TV & Movies you have or haven't watched and you can simply ✅ them off as you watch them. There's a free version and a paid version. You can mark off entire season's in one go if you've seen them instead of episode by episode. It's available on the Google Apps or iPhone store

I used to use JustWatch before self hosting. They don’t make it easy to get you data out of their system (last time I tried)
