Import your library

Drop an OpenAudible, Libation, Audiobookshelf, or folder-scan export and this page checks, entirely in your browser, which of your audiobooks are already in the open database and which are new. Your file never leaves your device - the API receives only ASINs and ISBNs to look for a match, plus the author names of unmatched books to check for an existing work.

Everything you contribute here is factual metadata dedicated to the public domain (CC0). See the contributing guide and the licensing terms.

Producing an export

OpenAudible

In OpenAudible, choose Controls -> Export and save the library as JSON (books.json). Drop that file above.

Libation

In Libation, open the Export menu and choose Export Library. When prompted for a format, pick JSON and save the file - CSV and XLSX exports are not supported. Drop the saved .json above.

Audiobookshelf

Export your Audiobookshelf library with one command and drop the JSON above. The Audiobookshelf page has the copy-paste commands, and shows how to use AudioSilo Meta as a metadata provider inside Audiobookshelf too.

A plain folder of audiobooks

No library manager? Scan a folder of audiobooks with the repo's metascan tool - it reads embedded tags, file names, and the folder layout to produce a scan file this page accepts:

go run github.com/kodestar/audiosilo-meta/cmd/metascan@main <folder> -o scan.json

The scan file lists only factual metadata. Local paths and file names stay on your device - they are never uploaded or included in anything you submit.
