The Office API vs Fanart.tv: common questions

Which is more reliable, The Office API or Fanart.tv?

Only Fanart.tv is on our probe schedule so far (—% uptime over 90 days). The other is catalogued but not yet live-checked, so we can't compare measured reliability head-to-head — check the uncovered API's own status page for now.

The Office API needs no key, while Fanart.tv requires a free API key. If you want to start calling without signup, reach for The Office API first.

Can I call The Office API and Fanart.tv from the browser?

Yes — both The Office API and Fanart.tv send CORS headers over HTTPS, so front-end code can fetch either directly with no backend proxy. That makes them easy to swap in a client-side app while you compare responses.

Are The Office API and Fanart.tv free for commercial use?

The Office API has unclear commercial terms, and Fanart.tv has unclear commercial terms. We track service terms and the data license as separate fields — see the Commercial use and Data license rows above, and confirm both before shipping either in a paid product.
