Quotes on Design vs Zen Quotes

Quotes on Design is a WordPress site publishing curated design-inspiration quotes, whose standard WP-JSON REST endpoints (quotesondesign.com/wp-json/) expose the full post archive as read-only JSON. A live GET against wp-json/wp/v2/posts returned a genuine paginated post list while echoing Access-Control-Allow-Origin back to the sent Origin header, resolving cors unknown -> yes; no key was required, reconfirming auth None. A fully free WordPress content API — pricingModel free.

ZenQuotes serves a large collection of inspirational quotes as JSON, with a free rate-limited tier and a paid premium subscription unlocking unlimited requests and self-hosting. A live GET against the real gateway, zenquotes.io/api/random, returned a genuine quote with no Access-Control-Allow-Origin header on either a GET or an OPTIONS preflight, resolving cors yes -> no; no key was required, reconfirming auth None. pricingModel freemium.
