Runs a keyword search and delivers the organic results with title, URL, displayed path, snippet, date and sitelinks, paginating until max_results. Google is answered by the stateless HTTP tier and Bing/DuckDuckGo by a plain request — no browser is ever used, which is why this is the cheapest collector to run at volume.
$0.0004 per delivered result, up to 100 results per run. Nothing delivered means nothing charged.

What does the Web search API return?
Runs a keyword search and delivers the organic results with title, URL, displayed path, snippet, date and sitelinks, paginating until max_results. Google is answered by the stateless HTTP tier and Bing/DuckDuckGo by a plain request — no browser is ever used, which is why this is the cheapest collector to run at volume. Each row carries 9 fields, listed in full on this page.
What do I send it?
A semantic input, not a URL list: query are required. One run returns up to 100 results.
How much does the Web search API cost?
$0.0004 per delivered result. A run that delivers nothing is not billed, and the
monthly free credit covers about 2,500 results here.
Do I need my own proxies for it?
No. The collector runs on our residential network and handles rotation, retries and pagination internally.
