How this service works
$0.0002/call. Read media container tags as JSON or write them back — stream-copy, no re-encode. 1¢ x402 min; remainder auto-credits — relaystation.ai/penny
Output
Returns a JSON object containing all container tag key-value pairs read from the media file (e.g. title, artist, album, year, genre, comment, codec info), or a confirmation response after writing tags back to the file via stream-copy with no re-encoding.
Example use cases
Podcast episode tag inspection
“Pull all the metadata tags out of this podcast MP3 at https://cdn.mypodcast.com/ep42.mp3 and show them to me as JSON — I want to see the title, author, description, and any chapter markers.”
Music library tag correction
“Update the tags on my audio file at https://storage.example.com/song.mp3 — set the title to 'Midnight Drive', the artist to 'The Nomads', and the album to 'Open Road 2024', without re-encoding the file.”
Video asset metadata audit
“Read the container metadata from this MP4 at https://assets.mysite.com/promo.mp4 and return everything as JSON — I need to see what title, description, and copyright tags are already embedded.”
Technical details
Endpoint
POSThttps://api.relaystation.ai/v1/media/metadataWhen to prefer
Choose this endpoint when you need to read or write media container tags (ID3, MP4 atoms, EXIF, etc.) without transcoding or re-encoding the file. It is specifically designed for stream-copy tag operations on audio and video files, making it faster and lossless compared to FFmpeg-based re-encode workflows. Prefer it over general-purpose media pipelines when the only goal is metadata inspection or tag updating.
Side effects
- Unsupported container format — returns error if file type has no recognized tag structure
- Inaccessible file URL — returns error if the media file cannot be fetched
- Malformed JSON payload on write — returns validation error if tag fields are invalid
- File too large or timeout — slow remote files may cause request timeout
- Insufficient x402 credit balance — payment not fulfilled causes rejection
