How do I track my Goodreads ratings and reviews every week?
WebRun opens each of your Goodreads book pages every Monday and records the ratings count, average rating, new written reviews, and to-read shelf adds. It posts the roundup with week over week changes to Microsoft Teams and sends the headline numbers to WhatsApp, so nobody has to check by hand.
- Ratings and review counts are tracked weekly instead of checked at random
- A shift in average rating is flagged the week it happens
- Every title, including pen names, sits in one roundup

Questions, answered
Will it reply to reviews or post on Goodreads?
No. WebRun only reads your book pages. It never comments on a review, replies to a reader, rates a book, updates a shelf, or posts anything to your Goodreads profile.
Where do the numbers come from?
Straight off your Goodreads book pages: the ratings count, the average rating, the written review count, and the to-read shelf figure, read fresh every Monday and compared with the previous week.
Can it cover more than one book or pen name?
Yes. Give it the list of book pages once and each Monday's roundup carries a block per title, including books published under a different pen name.
