Serpent API

Serpent API exists for one reason: SERP data shouldn't cost more than the team analyzing it. For a decade, the SERP API market was dominated by providers charging $5–50 per 1,000 searches, locked behind enterprise contracts, monthly minimums, and sales calls. A single SEO agency tracking a few thousand keywords a day was burning through $1,500–$5,000 per month on raw search data alone — money that should have funded talent, content, and client outcomes, not API bills. We're a team of marketers who lived this pain every month. So we built the infrastructure ourselves. Today, Serpent API delivers the same Google, Bing, Yahoo!, and DuckDuckGo data — at a fraction of the cost, with no contracts, no minimums, and no enterprise sales calls required.
