What This Skill Does
Looks up US streaming availability for movies and TV shows by querying the WhereCanIWatch.tv public API. Returns which services carry a title, the access method (subscription, free, rent, or buy), price, and quality. Covers 2,400+ titles across major platforms.
Checks availability across all major US streaming services in two API calls and returns direct deep links with prices, instead of manually visiting each platform.
When to use it
- Checking if a specific movie is on Netflix before subscribing
- Finding a free ad-supported option before paying to rent
- Comparing rental prices across Prime Video, Apple TV, and Vudu
- Confirming a TV show is still available on a service before recommending it
- Deciding where to watch something on short notice based on existing subscriptions
