SerpWow is a real-time SERP (search engine results page) API from Traject Data. A single GET request to https://api.serpwow.com/live returns clean, structured JSON, HTML or CSV results from Google, Bing, Yahoo, Baidu, Yandex, Naver, Amazon or eBay, with fine-grained control over location (down to ZIP/postal code), device (desktop, tablet, mobile), language, country and result type — organic search, Maps places and reviews, Shopping, Product, News, Images, Videos, Scholar, Trends, Autocomplete, Reverse Image and Google AI Overviews. Alongside the real-time Search API, SerpWow ships a Batches API for scheduling up to 15,000 searches at a time with webhook or object-storage delivery, a free Locations API, a Destinations API that pushes result sets to S3, Google Cloud Storage, Azure Blob or any S3-compatible store, an Error Logs API, and an Account API for credit and platform-status telemetry. Billing is metered in credits with published per-tier overage rates, and requests that do not return HTTP 200 are not charged.
SerpWow publishes 2 APIs on the APIs.io network, including Search API, and 1 more. Tagged areas include Search, SERP, Web Data, Scraping, and SEO.
The SerpWow catalog on APIs.io includes 1 event-driven AsyncAPI specification.
SerpWow’s developer surface includes documentation, API reference, getting-started guide, support, engineering blog, pricing, signup flow, and 25 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.
Create-or-Update Ergonomics does not apply to this provider. The published contracts declare
no write operations, and a read-only API cannot create-or-update. The facet is excluded from this provider's
denominator entirely — not scored zero. A reference or data API is not deficient for being unable to
upsert.
The six quality facets above are damped to 85 points between them,
because the conditional facet above carries the other
15. That is why each facet's contribution is shown against a damped
maximum: raising a quality facet moves the composite by 85% of its nominal
weight, not 100%. The full arithmetic is at apis.io/rating/.
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 github.com/api-evangelist/serpwow: open an issue to ask a question, or submit a pull request to add artifacts.

Interfaces this provider implements that became standards by being copied rather than ratified. Each is profiled by the API Commons, and the evidence column says how the claim was established — not that it was made.

removed_pointers:
- type: GitHubOrganization
url: https://github.com/serpwow
reason: Confirmed dead 2026-08-27 — https://github.com/serpwow returns HTTP 404, as do all three SDK repositories it used
to hold (google-search-results-nodejs, google-search-results-python, google-search-results-php). The published npm/PyPI/Packagist
packages still declare those repositories. Removed rather than left as a false claim on the provider's behalf.
