Lots of Sounds
What it is
Lots of Sounds combines a CC0 sound-effects library with an online soundboard, browser audio tools, a REST API and a hosted MCP server. The library is listed for use in videos, games, apps and streams, and the maker says sounds can be used commercially without attribution. Its API searches by keyword and filters by tags, category and duration, then supplies signed URLs to stream or download MP3 files. It uses standard HTTP requests with an x-api-key header and needs no SDK. The hosted MCP server connects to Claude, Cursor, ChatGPT or another MCP client. Free browser tools convert and trim audio and create waveform images; processing happens on the user's device, according to the maker. The soundboard offers 48 sounds without signup, with keyboard shortcuts for its first ten pads. The free plan provides catalog browsing, search and previews, but no API access. Pro costs $15/month or $150/year; Enterprise costs $49/month or $490/year. Both paid plans include unlimited downloads, with different daily API request allowances.
