Ideas: Please publish a public API

Ravenbane — Mon, 26 Oct 2026 19:26:40 GMT

I'm a paying Pandora subscriber, and I have been for many years. Most of my friends switched to Spotify years ago for its single-song search and play, exact playlists, and all the other options it offers — but I stuck with Pandora, and I'd like to keep listening to Pandora. I listen daily. I also use a personal AI assistant to control playback on my phone. Spotify offers a public API that lets an assistant start playback, but Pandora offers nothing comparable — your API is partner-only. Please consider publishing a public API, or a listener-level API, so a personal assistant can fully control Pandora — not just start playback, but switch stations, skip songs, and thumb tracks up or down. I'd use it daily for listening to my Pandora stations.
