NZBHydra2 is an open-source software tool for aggregating Usenet indexer search results. It acts as a “meta-search” engine for Usenet content, allowing users to search across multiple Usenet indexers at once and obtain more comprehensive results. NZBHydra2 supports a variety of Usenet indexers and also integrates with popular download clients such as SABnzbd, NZBGet, and others. With NZBHydra2, users can streamline their search process, reduce the time spent searching for content, and improve the accuracy of their search results. Additionally, NZBHydra2 provides features such as detailed logging, a user-friendly web interface, and customizable search filters and sorting options.
