TasteDive
TasteDive's recommendation API takes one or more seed items — movies, music, shows, books, games, people, places, or brands, optionally typed to disambiguate titles like "movie:Chaplin" — and returns similar items scored by TasteDive's own recommendation engine, with an optional verbose mode adding descriptions and YouTube links. It requires a free access key (`k` parameter) issued on request, capped at 300 requests per hour, and there's no paid tier beyond that shared rate limit; TasteDive has been affiliated with Qloo since 2019, which now positions itself as the current home for this taste-graph technology, though the legacy TasteDive endpoint documented here remains live. Responses are plain JSON with no CORS headers, so browser-side calls need a server-side proxy.

- Sign up with the provider to get an API key.
- Send it on every request as a header
Authorization: <key> - The exact header isn't documented — Authorization is a common default; confirm in the provider's docs.
Your key is stored only in this browser (localStorage) and sent directly to the API — never to greatapis.
