OpenSERP

OpenSERP is an open-source, self-hostable SERP API that returns structured search results from Google, Bing, Yandex, Baidu, DuckDuckGo and Ecosia through one REST interface, alongside OpenSERP Cloud, a managed pay-as-you-go version of the same API adding page extraction, multi-engine megasearch, image search and scheduled rank monitoring. The self-hosted server ships an MIT-licensed Go binary and CLI with a published OpenAPI 3.0.3 contract, a v2 response envelope carrying query echo, metadata, normalized results and pagination, plus cache, proxy-pool and circuit-breaker telemetry endpoints. OpenSERP Cloud adds bearer-token authentication, credit-metered billing, engine health routing, batch URL extraction and Search Monitor webhooks, and the project publishes first-party JavaScript and Python SDKs, an MCP server and an n8n community node.

OpenSERP publishes 6 API contracts indexed on the APIs.io network, including Docs API, Health API, Mega API, and 3 more. Tagged areas include Company, Search, SERP, Web Scraping, and Content Extraction.

The OpenSERP catalog on APIs.io includes 1 event-driven AsyncAPI specification and 1 Spectral governance ruleset.

OpenSERP’s developer surface includes documentation, API reference, getting-started guide, authentication, pricing, engineering blog, signup flow, and 42 more developer resources.

Regulatory Posture applies to this provider. Its tags matched the Horizontal (data, software, accessibility, platform) regime, so Regulatory Posture carries 15 points of the composite. If this regime is wrong for your business, say so on your provider repo — the applicability map is public and we will correct it.

Open Source Surface applies to this provider. This product is open source and we read its repository directly, so Open Source Surface carries 10 points of the composite. It is scored from what the repository actually publishes — a security policy, a contribution guide, a release history, a code of conduct — read live from the provider rather than inferred from our own catalog pointers. This facet adds; nothing was taken away to make room for it. An open-source project is not excused from the commercial facets, because exemption would strip it of the points it does earn. If we have the wrong repository, or this product is not open source, say so on your provider repo and we will drop the facet rather than have you publish against it.

Create-or-Update Ergonomics applies to this provider. This API accepts writes, so it carries 10 points of the composite. It is scored from the published contracts themselves: whether a caller can create-or-update in one call, whether the write accepts a key the caller already holds, and whether the response says which branch ran. Without that, every write needs a search-and-branch in front of it, and the first time that check is skipped a duplicate record is created. Scored against the observed mean rather than raw — a provider at the catalog average is unchanged by this facet, not penalised by it.

The six quality facets above are damped to 65 points between them, because both conditional facets apply and carry 35 points together. That is why each facet's contribution is shown against a damped maximum: raising a quality facet moves the composite by 65% of its nominal weight, not 100%. The full arithmetic is at apis.io/rating/.

Agent readiness — checks not met, largest first (exact, from this profile):

Idempotency +9 pts — OpenAPI mutating operations declare an idempotency key — a header, a request-body property, or a named de-duplication token whose own description says so (verified); else common[].type matches /idempoten/i (documented)
A2A Agent Card +8 pts — a2a/-a2a.yml manifest, graded on conformance.grade against A2A 1.0.0
Rate-Limit Signaling +7 pts — OpenAPI responses document X-RateLimit-* / RateLimit headers (verified), else a rate_limits artifact or RateLimits link (documented)
Registration Without a Human +6 pts — a `registration_endpoint` in the served RFC 8414 / OIDC discovery document
Delegated User Identity +6 pts — a served discovery document listing authorization_code in grant_types_supported (served), else an oauth2 authorizationCode flow or openIdConnect declared in an OpenAPI (documented)
Documented Reversibility +6 pts — a reversal operation in the contract, graded up when a window is documented too

4 more unmet checks in the Agent Readiness table above.

Kin Score — facets with the most composite points still available (weight × headroom):

Contract Quality scores 47.2 — up to +13.2 composite points
Contract Governance scores 18.2 — up to +9.8 composite points
Operational Transparency scores 26.3 — up to +9.6 composite points

Each check links to what satisfies it. Publish the artifact, or tell us where it already lives, and the score moves on the next scoring run.

Improve this rating by publishing the missing artifacts — every area above can be raised, and the full rubric is at apis.io/rating/. Every facet and dimension name above is a link: it opens that measurement's own page — what it means, the exact checks that feed it, how the whole catalog distributes on it, and the providers at the top of it. This rating is computed from the provider profile at artifacts.apis.io/openserp/apis.yml: open an issue on github.com/api-evangelist/openserp to ask a question or point us at an artifact you publish.
