Questions

SERP API questions

What is a SERP API?

A SERP API runs a search on a search engine and returns the results page (the SERP) as structured data instead of HTML. Ujeebu's SERP API covers Google: web results with People also ask and Google AI Overviews, plus news, images, videos, Maps places, jobs and Google AI Mode, all as JSON from one endpoint with the search_type parameter.

How much does the SERP API cost?

Every request costs 5 credits, whatever the search type, and a batch costs 5 credits per 10 results requested. The Starter plan ($49 a month, 300,000 credits) covers 60,000 searches. Failed requests (blocks, timeouts, server errors) cost nothing, and the Ujb-Credits response header gives the credits each call used.

Is there a free SERP API plan?

Every new account gets 5,000 free credits for 7 days, no card needed: that is 1,000 searches to test every search type. After that, pick a monthly plan or a one-time top-up pack.

Can I scrape Google search results for a specific city or language?

Yes. Set location to a country code (us, de) or a place name such as "Austin, TX", lang to the language, and device to desktop or mobile. Each request fetches the results page from Google for that place, language and device.

Is it an alternative to the Google Custom Search API?

It answers a different need. The Custom Search JSON API searches a Programmable Search Engine you configure in Google Cloud. Ujeebu returns the Google results page a searcher sees, with People also ask, Google AI Overviews and the news, images, videos, Maps and jobs results, with one API key and no search engine to set up.

Does it return Google AI Overviews and Google AI Mode?

Yes. A web search returns Google AI Overviews in the ai_overview field when Google shows one (null otherwise), and search_type=ai returns the Google AI Mode answer with its citations. Both cost 5 credits.

How do I get more than 10 results?

Use page (1 to 40) to walk the pages of web, news, images, videos, maps and Google Jobs results; each response carries the next page URLs. For web search and Google Jobs, batch=true with results_count up to 100 returns them in one request, billed 5 credits per 10 results.

How does Ujeebu compare with SerpApi and Serper?

Ujeebu covers Google only, and SERP shares one credit pool with our scraping, extraction, screenshot and Markdown APIs. Our comparison pages list each provider's plans, prices and features side by side: Ujeebu vs SerpApi, Ujeebu vs Serper and SerpApi vs Serper.
