GurbaniNow vs PoetryDB

Keyless JSON API serving Sikh Gurbani scripture — full-text search across Sri Guru Granth Sahib Ji, Sri Dasam Granth, and several other granths, the daily Hukamnama, and Gurmukhi/transliteration conversion utilities, all backed by a Cloudflare-fronted CDN for low-latency global access. Any data returned is licensed CC BY-NC-ND, so commercial reuse or redistribution needs separate permission from the GurbaniNow team.

Keyless JSON API for a curated collection of roughly 3,000 English-language poems across 129 authors, queryable by author, title, line content, or poem-count/line-count filters, with matching results returned as full structured poem objects. Built and maintained as a free open-source project with no rate limits or usage tiers documented anywhere.
