What it does
The Watchmode API tells where films and TV shows can be streamed, rented or bought, for example to show "Watch on" links next to a title. Search titles, get their streaming sources per country with links, and list the streaming services. Responses are JSON. Free for non-commercial use with a free API key, 2,500 credits a month and attribution; commercial use needs a paid plan. The free plan covers streaming sources in up to 3 countries.
