note: >-
  Kakao Entertainment publishes no developer plans, no API pricing page and no metered API tiers. There
  is no developer portal to price against. Access to the only public machine-readable surface, the Melon
  MCP server, is not sold as an API product: it is gated by a consumer Melon account plus, for the
  personalization tools, an active Melon streaming subscription, and by a per-partner OAuth allowlist
  that Melon administers by email. This is an honest zero, recorded rather than omitted.
access_model:
  pricing: not-published
  onboarding: allowlist
  self_serve: false
  trial: false
  public: true
  public_note: The MCP endpoint is publicly reachable and tools/list answers anonymously.
  requirements:
  - A compatible MCP client (Claude.ai / Claude Desktop, Kakao PlayMCP, or any MCP client implementing
    Streamable HTTP)
  - Valid Melon account credentials
  - Active Melon subscription, which the provider states may be required for full access to premium
    features and is required for personalization features
  - Redirect URI and client credentials registered with Melon via melon_info@kakaoent.com

consumer_pricing_note: >-
  Melon sells consumer streaming vouchers on melon.com in Korean and Korean won, and Kakao Page and
  Kakao Webtoon sell in-app currency for episode unlocks. Those are consumer subscription products, not
  API plans, and are deliberately not recorded here as plans.
