About SerpApi - Search API
SerpApi is a search API that returns structured JSON results scraped from Google and other search engines, including organic results, Maps, Local, Stories, Shopping, Direct Answer, and Knowledge Graph data, with links, addresses, prices, thumbnails, ratings, reviews, and rich snippets. Beyond Google, it covers engines and platforms such as Bing, Baidu, DuckDuckGo, Yandex, Yahoo!, Amazon, eBay, Walmart, Apple App Store, Tripadvisor, Yelp, YouTube, Instagram, and Facebook, with dedicated endpoints for use cases like Google Flights, Hotels, Trends, Scholar, Patents, Jobs, Finance, and Maps. Requests run in real time through a full browser cluster with CAPTCHA solving, and a location parameter routes requests through geolocated proxy servers for accurate regional results. Integrations are available for Ruby, Python, JavaScript, Golang, PHP, Java, Rust, .Net, Swift, C++, CLI, and MCP.
The service is built for developers and businesses needing programmatic access to search engine result data for use cases such as SEO, local SEO, product research, price monitoring, news monitoring, background checks, travel information, and cyber threat intelligence. It includes a U.S. Legal Shield covering scraping and parsing of search engine data (up to $2 million in coverage) for lawful use, included with the Production plan and above.
Pricing is a month-to-month contract with no long-term commitment. Plans include Free (250 searches/month, 50/hour), Starter ($25/month, 1,000 searches/month, 200/hour), Developer ($75/month, 5,000 searches/month, 1,000/hour), Production ($150/month, 15,000 searches/month, 3,000/hour), and Big Data ($275/month, 30,000 searches/month, 6,000/hour), with an enterprise option for higher volume and compliance needs.
