About IMDb

IMDb Metadata is a licensed data product providing entertainment metadata covering more than 12 million movie, TV, and video game titles, and over 16 million cast and crew records. Data includes IMDb's 1-10 star ratings (computed from votes by over 250 million monthly IMDb visitors), global box office grosses from Box Office Mojo, IMDb Meters (popularity rankings for titles and entertainment professionals), user reviews, parents guide content (severity ratings and scene descriptions for adult or potentially harmful content), and trivia and goofs. The dataset totals 1.9+ billion ratings.

Data is organized into packages: basic title data with ratings, an essential metadata package (extended title data, ratings, and name data), and a combined IMDb and Box Office Mojo package that adds box office performance data, plus add-on datasets. All data products are updated daily and accessed through Amazon Data Exchange (AWS), available in bulk and via a GraphQL-backed API. The service is intended for companies building products such as search, discovery, and recommendation features, or performing data analytics on entertainment data, and requires contacting IMDb to obtain a license.
