## WtfNZB

- `debrid/wtfnzb` | qualifies-with-caveat | evidence reported | binding none | category Usenet indexer (web only, no Newznab API found) | tier free
- needs card no, phone no, ID no, institution no | verified 2026-11-03T11:28:53.665Z (live) | stale on 2026-11-18
- url https://wtfnzb.pw/
- free tier: Reported as no registration and unlimited NZB downloads for free users, with donors getting more API access. No Newznab API answered: every /api variant tried returned the HTML home page. | unit: unlimited | metered on: none | read on: 2026-10-23 | source: [1]
- per-object cap: not applicable: an NZB pointer file | source: [1]
- retention: not stated on any page reachable | source: [1] | note: unverified
- egress: No byte metering reported; the site serves pointers. | metered: no | source: [1]
- identity: anonymous | detail: Reported 'No registration required' by a third-party listing. The site's /register and /login paths answer HTTP 403 behind a Cloudflare 'Just a moment...' challenge on 2026-11-03, so whether an account is needed is unverified.
- interface: rest
- limits:
  - request-rate: reported unlimited NZB downloads for free users; donors get more API access [2]
- binding note: Nothing measured could bind: no API, no account and no published counter. Naming a kind here would be invention.
- interface detail: HTML site only. /api?t=caps and /api.php return 200 with text/html and the site's own page (7,571 bytes on 2026-11-03), so no Newznab surface is exposed at the addresses a client would try.
- endpoint: https://wtfnzb.pw/
- tooling: A wrapper has to drive the web UI; Prowlarr and NZBHydra2 cannot add it as a Newznab indexer. The absence of an API is a tooling note, not a verdict.
- composes with: A manual fallback for a name when every API indexer has failed; not automatable without a scraper.
- reliability: A third-party listing records it as 'in heavy development with frequent downtime', so a scraper should expect intermittent failure.
- notes: Four API paths returning the home page is the shape of a single-page app with a catch-all route, not of a retired API. A client that needs automation should look for an API on a subdomain before concluding there is none.
- evidence note: The absence of a Newznab endpoint was measured across four candidate paths; the free, unlimited, no-registration claim and the reliability note are third-party.
