| Tooling | No API. Web upload plus a 'Sounds import from sharehosters' feature (pull from a sharehoster URL rather than uploading through the browser) — that is the automation-adjacent path. |

| Composes with | 400 MB/week x N accounts, accumulating indefinitely (the quota resets, storage does not expire). ~1.7 GB/month/account at zero cost, so 10 accounts is ~17 GB/month and 100 accounts ~170 GB/month. Throughput, not quota, is the constraint. |

| Reliability | RE-ENCODES to 192 kbps CBR joint stereo for everyone on Free ('This ensures compatibility across all devices. Premium members can set their own bitrate preferences'). The 'original (mp3 only)' option in the feature list is a Premium/paid capability, so on the free tier what comes out is the 192k transcode, not your file. |
