Search-native API
Built specifically for Google SERP delivery, not general rendering.
ScrapingBee Alternative
A search-focused ScrapingBee alternative
ScrapingBee renders pages and returns HTML; for Google search you still parse the SERP. Searlo returns the parsed SERP directly — positions, snippets, and structured fields — at $0.30 per 1,000 queries.
ScrapingBee is a capable render-and-return scraping API. Its Google endpoint helps, but you remain responsible for handling result structure and keeping up with SERP changes for anything advanced.
Searlo is search-native. A single keyed request returns organic results with positions and the full set of SERP features already parsed. It is priced at $0.30 per 1,000 queries, with 3,000 free credits and sub-second responses.
Parsed results
Positions and SERP features returned as structured data.
Fast responses
Sub-second SERP fetches without headless rendering overhead.
$0.30 per 1,000
Per-query pricing tuned for search volume.

const res = await fetch(

);
const { organic } = await res.json();
organic.forEach(o =>
console.log(o.position, o.domain, o.title));Searlo vs ScrapingBee
For Google search results, a search-native API is simpler.

Why search-native matters
General scraping tools treat Google like any other site. A search-native API treats the SERP as a first-class object, returning positions and features consistently and absorbing Google's layout changes for you.
If search results are what you need, that specialization removes ongoing maintenance and gives cleaner data.
- No headless rendering to manage
- Consistent, parsed SERP structure
- Search-tuned cost and latency
Switch when you
- Need parsed Google results, not HTML
- Want SERP features out of the box
- Prefer per-query search pricing
- Build rank trackers or SEO tools
- Want to avoid rendering overhead
- Feed search data to LLM workflows
