Why it exists

Song-link services don't take artist URLs. MusicBrainz caps you at one request per second. The platforms keep shutting down their own APIs. Partita is the neutral resolver in between. One call in, the whole identity out, and reads stay free and keyless.

Next up

MCP server resolve_artist_url and get_artist, no auth for reads

Batch resolve POST /v1/resolve, up to 50 URLs per call

MusicBrainz & Wikidata IDs Open identifiers in every payload

Free API keys Higher rate limits; keyless stays available

v1 is live. The MCP server is next.

Join the list and we'll write exactly once, when the MCP server and batch resolve land.
