Introducing the Pro Sound Effects Partner API

Power your platform with our sound effects API to deliver seamless functionality to your users.

Sound is a powerful storytelling tool. George Lucas himself said, "Sound is 50 percent of the movie-going experience, and I've always believed audiences are moved and excited by what they hear in my movies at least as much as by what they see."

At Pro Sound Effects, our mission is to empower all creators to quickly find and use the right sounds for any creation. But building a platform to efficiently search, license, and deliver sound effects is a hard problem – one we’ve spent years solving.

That’s why we’re excited to introduce the PSE Partner API: a powerful way for companies and platforms to integrate professionally curated sound effects directly into their products. With our Partner API, companies can deliver sounds to their users curated from the industry’s leading SFX library (that’s us) via seamless search, preview, and download functionality – without the need to build or manage complex backend systems.

It’s the same API that powers our own website and desktop app, now available to select enterprise partners.

Under the Hood: What the API Does

With the PSE Partner API, you can:

• Leverage Our Professional SFX Search Engine
  Our API delivers fast, accurate, and intuitive search functionality tailored for sound effects – which is considerably different than searching for music or other media assets.
  
  
• Preview Sounds from the Cloud
  Let users browse and preview curated sounds directly from our secure, cloud-based SFX library.
  
  
• Enable One-Click Download
  Serve downloads instantly from PSE’s infrastructure, without hosting or managing the content yourself.
  
  
• Skip the Backend Hassle
  Just build the front-end experience, and our API handles the rest.
  
  

How It Works

Getting started is simple:

• Connect via API
  Request access and receive documentation to begin development.
  
  
• Build Your Front-End
  Create your own UI and UX while the API delivers search, preview, and download functionality under the hood.
  
  
• Get Access to PSE Sounds
  Our curation team works directly with you to understand what sounds your users will need, and establish pricing and licensing terms.
  
  
• Empower Your Users
