}Four SERP API endpoints, one API key
Each endpoint returns the same envelope, so switching from web results to images is a one-word change.
GET /api/v1/search
Organic results with title, URL, displayed link, snippet, source and date. Up to 100 results per call, plus related searches.
GET /api/v1/images
Original image URL, thumbnail, source page and pixel dimensions, up to 150 per call.
GET /api/v1/autocomplete
Live query suggestions for any prefix, in the language and market you choose.
GET /api/v1/rank
Pass a keyword and a domain, get its position in the top 100 and every URL from that domain that ranks.
A SERP API built for products that run on search data
Live, not cached
Every request fetches fresh results at that moment. A typical first page returns in under a second.
Clean JSON
Click-tracking redirects are decoded to the real destination URL. Dates and snippets are separated.
Fair billing
One credit per results page. Failed requests are refunded automatically, so you only pay for data you receive.
40+ markets
Target a country with gl and a language with hl. Results come back as a local user in that market sees them.
One HTTP request
Works from any language that can make a GET request. No SDK required.
curl "https://serpfast.com/api/v1/search?q=best+running+shoes&gl=US&api_key=YOUR_KEY"const res = await fetch(
"https://serpfast.com/api/v1/search?q=best+running+shoes&gl=US",
{ headers: { Authorization: `Bearer ${process.env.SERPFAST_KEY}` } }
);
const { organic_results } = await res.json();What teams build with a SERP API
Rank trackers
Track daily search positions for thousands of keywords per client.
AI agents and RAG
Ground LLM answers in fresh web results with sources.
SEO and content tools
Pull competitors, related searches and keyword ideas into briefs.
Market research
Compare what search results look like in different countries and languages.
Results you can trust
Every response is checked: if a search engine serves unrelated or empty results to automated traffic, serpfast retries with another profile, and failed requests are refunded.
Free SERP API: common questions
- Is there a free SERP API?
- Yes. Every serpfast account gets 5,000 free credits on sign-up, enough for 5,000 searches of 10 results each. No credit card is needed, and free credits never expire.
- What is a SERP API?
- A SERP API runs a search for a keyword and returns the search engine results page (SERP) as structured JSON: titles, URLs, snippets, related searches and more. You get the data without building and maintaining scrapers, proxies and parsers.
- How much does a SERP API cost?
- With serpfast, paid plans start at $1.99 per month for 6,000 searches, and the price drops to about $0.17 per 1,000 searches on the Growth plan. One credit returns one results page, and failed requests are refunded automatically.
- What are the limits of the free plan?
- The free plan includes every endpoint and every market, with a rate limit of 1 request every 30 seconds. Paid plans raise it to between 1 and 10 requests per second. One free account is allowed per person.
- Which countries and languages are supported?
- More than 40 markets. Set the country with gl and the language with hl, and results come back the way a local user in that market sees them.
- Are the results live or cached?
- Live. Every request fetches the results page at that moment, so rankings reflect the time you ask. A typical first page returns in under a second.
