justmeme.wtf vs PotterDB

justmeme.wtf

justmeme.wtf is a free, keyless meme API covering 2,000+ templates with endpoints for browsing, searching by name (e.g. "drake"), pulling trending memes and categories, and an AI-generation endpoint that picks a fitting template and writes captions from a text prompt. Every response is JSON with CORS headers enabled by default, and the whole API is rate-limited to 60 requests per minute per IP rather than gated behind an account. It's a newer entrant compared to Imgflip and Meme Maker, aimed squarely at no-signup, drop-in meme generation.

PotterDB

PotterDB is a free, keyless database of the Harry Potter universe covering books, chapters, characters, movies, potions, and spells, reachable through both a JSON:API-style REST interface (api.potterdb.com) and a GraphQL endpoint. Every resource supports filtering, sorting, sparse fieldsets, and pagination in the JSON:API convention, and the REST side publishes a live OpenAPI schema. It's a community-run, open-source project welcoming Hacktoberfest contributions rather than a commercial offering.
