Colormind vs Metropolitan Museum of Art

Colormind generates five-color palettes from a model trained on movies, art, and popular color schemes, returning a plain array of RGB triples from a single POST to /api/ with no signup. A live probe of the real gateway confirmed it now answers over HTTPS as well as HTTP (correcting https false -> true) and sends Access-Control-Allow-Origin: * on every response, resolving cors unknown -> yes.

The Met's Collection API exposes all 502,000+ objects in its Open Access collection — the same data behind its own site — fully keyless and free, asking only that callers self-throttle to 80 requests per second. A live GET against the real gateway, collectionapi.metmuseum.org, returned genuine object data carrying Access-Control-Allow-Origin: *, correcting cors no -> yes while reconfirming auth None.
