What is SerpApi?
Scrape Google and other search engines from our fast, easy, and complete API.
What it is
SerpApi is a real-time search API for developers. Instead of maintaining your own scrapers, proxies, and CAPTCHA solvers, you call one REST endpoint and get back structured JSON from Google, Bing, DuckDuckGo, and 100+ other search engines — web, images, news, shopping, local, and jobs results included.
Why AI builders use it
Agents and RAG pipelines need fresh facts from the web, and raw HTML is a poor input for a model. SerpApi returns clean, structured data with location, device, and language parameters, so each search is reproducible and precise. The team also publishes hands-on tutorials, including a remote job finder built on OpenAI's Decisions API and a Jev-based fact checker — both pairing live search data with decision models.
Pricing
A free plan covers 250 searches per month (50/hour throughput) with no credit card on signup. Paid tiers start at $25/month for 1,000 searches and scale to enterprise volumes; only successful searches count against quota.
