PoetryDB vs Wizard World

PoetryDB

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.

Wizard World

A community-run REST API mirroring the Harry Potter Wiki: houses (with founders, ghosts, and heads), wizards, spells, elixirs, ingredients, and magical creatures, each returned as detailed JSON. Built and maintained by a small volunteer team (MossPiglets) on .NET/ASP.NET Core with a public Swagger spec, hosted free on Heroku with no key, account, or documented rate limit beyond the dyno's own capacity.
