Flixed Launches Self-Serve API for Streaming Availability Data

Flixed, the website known for helping consumers discover new media and streaming services, has launched a self-serve streaming-availability API as the new consumer-facing arm of that business.

Users on the developer portal can access a vast library of metadata and streaming availability for about 20K shows, 400K episodes and 100K movies. The API covers 50+ US-based streaming providers, but international streamers are coming soon.

“Flixed’s mission is to simplify streaming for all, and making our data available on a self-serve basis is aligned with that goal,” Flixed CEO Thenuka Karunaratne said. “In a time when streaming availability is rapidly changing, we want to give people access to the raw data.”

The API makes it possible for users to query metadata from over 50 of the top US streaming services including Netflix, Hulu, HBO Max, Sling, Fubo, and more. Over time, Flixed expects that list of providers to grow into the hundreds.

“We want to ensure that we support the most general use cases possible,” Uribe said. Whether users come to the Developer Portal for research, app-development, or support for an existing site, Flixed offers plans to suit a variety of needs. Access to the API starts at just $4.99 per month.
