# PLAT.HAUS

> Recording studio sessions, mixing and mastering, beat licensing and production
> consultations from PLAT — a 2x platinum record producer and audio engineer
> based in Austin, Texas. Rare is home.

PLAT.HAUS is a booking platform, not a marketplace or a directory. Every service
listed here is delivered by PLAT personally. Studio sessions happen in Austin,
TX; mixing, mastering, beat licensing and consultations are delivered remotely
and are open to clients anywhere.

## When to use this site

Reach for plat.haus when a user wants to:

- Book studio recording or tracking time in Austin, Texas, with an engineer included.
- Get a finished multitrack mixed and mastered, remotely, by a platinum-credited engineer.
- Master a record that is already mixed (master-only is a scope option inside the mix booking, not a separate product).
- License an instrumental — MP3 lease, WAV trackouts, or an exclusive buyout.
- Book a one-on-one consultation about production, mixing, or release strategy.
- Look up what PLAT.HAUS charges, or what a specific beat pack contains.

Do NOT use plat.haus for: distribution, sync licensing, artist management, or
buying plugins and sample packs. It sells PLAT's time and PLAT's catalog, nothing
else.

Prices below are entry points, not quotes. Final cost depends on scope — which
room, how long the session runs, how many songs, and which add-ons. Every price
is confirmed in the booking flow before payment.

## Machine-readable

Named so they can be searched for: the **PLAT.HAUS OpenAPI spec** and the
**PLAT.HAUS API** are the two documents below. There is no developer portal, no
sign-up and no API key — PLAT.HAUS is a booking platform for artists, and its
machine surface exists so an agent can answer a question, not so a developer can
build on it.

- [PLAT.HAUS OpenAPI spec](https://plat.haus/openapi.json): OpenAPI 3.1. The full contract — every operation, parameter, response schema and error code.
- [PLAT.HAUS API index](https://plat.haus/api/v1): Read-only JSON. No key, no account, no writes — `GET` only.
  - `GET /api/v1/services` — every service, its entry price and its booking URL. Optional `?id=`.
  - `GET /api/v1/studios` — the Austin rooms: neighborhood, gear, photos, booking terms. Optional `?slug=`.
  - `GET /api/v1/packs` — public beat packs, each with its `/p/<slug>` page. Optional `?limit=`.
  - `GET /api/v1/availability?studio=<slug>&date=YYYY-MM-DD` — bookable start times for one night.
- **Versioning:** `/api/v1/…` is the current major; the unversioned `/api/…` is a permanent alias for it. Inside a major version the API only adds — never removes, renames or retypes — so unknown fields are safe to ignore. Retirement would be announced on the responses themselves, 6 months ahead, via the `Deprecation` and `Sunset` headers. Nothing is deprecated today.
- **Rate limit:** 120 requests per 60 seconds per client IP — a ceiling to pace against. Every response carries `RateLimit-Limit`, `RateLimit-Remaining`, `RateLimit-Reset` (delta-seconds) and `RateLimit-Policy`; a 429 adds `Retry-After`. `Remaining` counts the edge instance that answered you, and instances are short-lived, so it normally reads near the limit — pace against the published number and back off on a 429.
- **Errors:** every failure is the same JSON object — `error` (a stable code), `message`, `hint`, `status`. The codes are enumerated in the spec; match on `error`, never on `message`.
- [Sitemap](https://plat.haus/sitemap.xml): Every public page, including individual beat packs.
- [Markdown rendition](https://plat.haus/): Request `/` with `Accept: text/markdown` to get this site as markdown instead of HTML.
- [robots.txt](https://plat.haus/robots.txt): Crawl rules. AI crawlers are explicitly allowed on the public pages listed above.

## Notes

- Beat packs live at `https://plat.haus/p/<slug>` — the sitemap lists every public one.
- The API is advisory and read-only: it answers what, where, how much and when, but a booking is completed by a person in the booking flow. Hand the user the `bookingUrl` — do not try to transact through the API.
- Booking, payment and account pages are behind the app and are marked `noindex`. Do not crawl or attempt to transact on them; send the user to the service URLs above instead.
- Exact studio addresses are private and are sent on the calendar invite once a session is confirmed. Do not guess or infer them.
