API.SH vs the official JustWatch API

JustWatch's official API is a business service for content partners and enterprise data customers, requested through a form or partnership; it is not an open developer API. API.SH returns public JustWatch availability, offers and popularity as JSON with no partner agreement.

Instead of relying on an unofficial JustWatch wrapper from GitHub that breaks when the site changes, or running an Apify actor, API.SH gives you where-to-watch data with one key and a fixed price per call.

JustWatch API questions

What JustWatch data can I get?+

Title search with streaming offers (/justwatch/v1/search), one title with offers in up to 20 countries, scores, cast and chart position (/justwatch/v1/title), popular and trending titles (/justwatch/v1/popular), new arrivals by day (/justwatch/v1/new) and the streaming services of a country (/justwatch/v1/providers).

How much does the JustWatch API cost?+

Every JustWatch endpoint costs 1 credit per call. On a monthly plan 1,000 credits cost $1 (Starter is $50/month for 50,000 credits). Pay-as-you-go is $2 per 1,000 credits, with top-ups from $15 that never expire.

Is there a free trial?+

Yes. Every account gets 1,000 free credits every month. That is 1,000 calls to /justwatch/v1/new at 1 credit each.

Is there an official JustWatch API?+

Yes, but only for business partners: JustWatch sells data and the Streaming Charts API to approved companies through its partnerships team. There is no open API key for developers. API.SH needs no partner approval.

Do I need a JustWatch account?+

No. API.SH reads public JustWatch pages only. No endpoint uses a login or anyone's watchlist.

Is there a free JustWatch API alternative?+

Unofficial GitHub wrappers exist but break when JustWatch changes. With API.SH you can start free on your monthly credits and get a maintained, documented API.

Can I use the JustWatch API from Python?+

Yes. Use the API.SH Python SDK or any HTTP client: call /justwatch/v1/search with q and country and read the JSON.

How do I get started?+

1. Sign up at api.sh. 2. Copy your API key. 3. Call /justwatch/v1/search with a title and a country such as US. Request examples and every parameter are in the docs at https://api.sh/docs. You can also use the JS or Python SDK, Google Sheets, Zapier, Make, n8n or the MCP server at https://api.sh/mcp.
