Watchmode
Watchmode specializes in telling developers where a given movie or TV title can be streamed, rented, or bought across services like Netflix and Prime by region, layered on top of general title metadata. Access requires an API key and usage is metered against an account quota, enforced and exposed via dedicated rate-limit/quota response headers.
