As atfergs said, Overseerr.
I have a lot of friends and family that stream from my Plex so I set up an Overseerr instance that is outward facing through a Cloudflared tunnel.
Overseerr uses Plex shared users to handle authentication and allows fine control of permissions per user.
It sends requests straight to Sonarr and Radarr to handle.
For people using jellyfin, Jellyseer is the fork of it and it works wonderfully.
My main question is: what automates pushing new content to my Plex libraries and kicking off a library scan?
Seems like there are lots of apps that do similar things (monitor trackers for example). I just need one that moves content from \Data\Torrents\ to Plex:\movies and tickles it enough to trigger a scan.
Does Overseerr do this?
Sonarr and Radarr can transfer your finished torrents and tell Plex to scan.
Under both services, go to Connect and add your Plex server. You can specify what triggers a scan.
Overseerr is basically a frontend that combines Sonarr and Radarr and allows you to share that access with friends and family so they can make requests.
