Data toolfare buys · quoted firstAsk your AI who owns the results page — ads, answers and all.
A real search results page from Google, Bing, YouTube, Amazon, Maps and more — organic positions, ads, People Also Ask, knowledge panels and local packs, for the country and language you name — answered inside ChatGPT, Claude, Codex or Cursor. No SerpApi plan or key of your own: toolfare runs each search and quotes it first.

Claude’s own instructions2What to ask
Copy a prompt into your AI app once you’re connected. It picks the right one of the 1 tools and tells you the price first.
The whole results page, as data
Runs a query on Google — or Bing, YouTube, Amazon, Maps and others — and returns the page as structured data: organic results with positions, ads, knowledge panels, People Also Ask and local packs.
- “What ranks on Google for marketing automation?”
- “Get the results page for this keyword in Japan.”
- “Which competitors are running search ads on our company name?”

serpapi_searchRuns a query on Google — or Bing, YouTube, Amazon, Maps and others — and returns the page as structured data: organic results with positions, ads, knowledge panels, People Also Ask and local packs.
Use it when
- You need to know what actually ranks for a keyword, in position order.
- You want the results-page features — ads, People Also Ask, a knowledge panel — not just the links.
- You are checking rankings from a specific country or language.
Look elsewhere when
- You want results by meaning rather than what Google ranks. That is a neural web search. Use this instead
- You want the pages’ content rather than the results that point to them. Use this instead
- You want your own site’s search data. Search Console is free and more accurate for your own site. Use this instead
SerpApi directly, or through toolfare
Directly
- A SerpApi plan sized to a monthly search allowance
- An API key of your own to hand to an agent
- A monthly bill that does not move when your usage does
Through toolfare
- Per search, quoted before it runs, on the same balance as everything else
- No SerpApi plan and no key to hand to an agent
- Reachable from any MCP client, in the chat you are already in
You get searches on demand, not rank tracking. Nothing watches a keyword for you, there is no history of past results, and every check is a new charged search.
Limits
- Each call is one results page for one query; checking many keywords is many searches.
- Results reflect the moment of the search and the location you asked for.
- Pay as you go from your toolfare balance, in US dollars; there is no subscription. A call runs when your balance covers its quote.
