Web Search API for Google, Bing and every major engine
Scrapingdogβs Web Search API gives you real-time results from Google, Bing, Brave, DuckDuckGo and Baidu in clean JSON. With the same API key, you can also pull data from Google News, Shopping, Flights, Hotels, Scholar and Images. We handle the proxies and CAPTCHAs, so you just send a query and use the data.
Everything you can pull with Scrapingdogβs Web Search APIs
Real-Time Search Results From Every Major Engine
One request, one response shape. Ask Google, Bing, Brave, DuckDuckGo or Baidu the same question and get organic results back as structured JSON, with the ranking position, title, link and snippet already separated.
- Organic results arrive parsed, alongside ads, featured snippets, people-also-ask and the knowledge graph.
- Set country and language to see the results a searcher in that market actually gets.
- The Universal Search API runs one query across several engines when you want more than one opinion.

Live News From Thousands of Publishers
Track a story, a brand or a market as it develops. The Google News APIs return headlines, snippets, publishers and timestamps as JSON, so a feed stays current without anyone watching it.
- Narrow to a window with tbs=qdr:h for the last hour, or qdr:d, qdr:w and qdr:m for longer.
- Country and language select the news edition, so a US and an Indian query return genuinely different coverage.
- Search by keyword, or pull a topic or publication feed straight through.

Flight and Hotel Data for Travel Products
Prices, routes and availability move constantly, and they are the hardest part of a travel product to keep honest. Query them on demand instead of caching numbers that go stale within the hour.
- Flights returns itineraries with carriers, stops, durations and prices, for one-way, return and multi-city searches.
- Hotels returns rates, ratings, reviews and amenities for a set of dates, so comparisons reflect the stay being booked.
- Both take a currency and a locale, so a price is shown the way the traveller expects to see it.

Product and Price Research Across Marketplaces
A product rarely sits on one site. Pull the same item from Google Shopping, Amazon and Walmart to see where it is cheapest, who is in stock, and what buyers are actually saying.
- Shopping results carry seller, price, rating and delivery, so a comparison table builds itself.
- Amazon search and product endpoints reach listings, offers, bestsellers and reviews.
- Run the same query on a schedule to watch a price move rather than reading it once.

Academic Results From Google Scholar
Reach papers, theses, books and conference proceedings from publishers, societies, repositories and universities, with the citation counts that tell you which of them the field actually leaned on.
- Each result carries the title, authors, publication, year, snippet and cited-by count.
- Author and profile endpoints follow a researcher and the body of work behind them.
- Citation endpoints return a reference in the format a bibliography expects.

Image Results With Sources You Can Follow
Collect image titles, thumbnails and the page each one came from, so a result can be credited and traced rather than floating free of its source.
- Every result carries the thumbnail, the full-size link and the originating page.
- Filter by size, colour, type and usage rights to keep a set usable.
- Google Lens takes an image as the query when you need to search by picture rather than words.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is a Web Search API?
It is an API that runs a search for you and hands back the results as structured data. Instead of loading a results page, rotating proxies and parsing HTML that changes without warning, you send a query and get JSON with the position, title, link and snippet already separated.
What is the difference between a Web Search API and a SERP API?
The terms overlap. A SERP API usually means results-page data from Google, while a Web Search API covers search across engines and the verticals underneath them, such as news, shopping, flights, scholar and images. Scrapingdog offers both through the same API key and response format.
Which search engines can I query?
There are dedicated APIs for Google, Bing, Brave, DuckDuckGo and Baidu. The Universal Search API runs a single query across several engines when you want to compare them.
Can I get results for a specific country or language?
Yes. Every search endpoint takes a country and a language parameter, and Google searches also accept domain and uule for finer geographic targeting. Results come back the way a searcher in that market would see them, which matters for rank tracking and for any pricing that varies by region.
Do you cover more than plain web results?
How many credits does a search request cost?
It depends on the endpoint. A standard Google search costs 5 credits and an advanced one costs 10; most other search endpoints are 5. The full table is on the documentation home page, and failed requests are never charged.
Can I use this to feed an AI model or agent?
Yes, and that is a common reason people start. Every response is JSON an agent can call as a tool, and the SDKs & MCP Server page covers wiring that up. For retrieval, pair a search call with the Web Scraping API using formats=markdown to pull the full page behind a result.
