Test SERP API Endpoints Live
The Serpent API Playground lets you test all search engine results page (SERP) API endpoints directly in your browser. No setup required — select your API key from the dropdown, choose an engine, and get instant JSON responses.
SERP Endpoints
Test web search, news, images, and video results across Google, Yahoo, Bing, and DuckDuckGo. Quick search returns ~10 results, deep search up to 100 with multi-page scraping.
AI Ranking
Check how AI models cite websites. Query Claude, ChatGPT, Gemini, and Perplexity to see which domains get referenced in their responses. Track your brand's AI visibility.
Social Media
Search YouTube videos, get channel statistics, retrieve video metadata, and scrape Instagram profiles. All responses in clean, structured JSON.
How the Playground Works
- Select an API key from the dropdown — use one created on the API Keys page after signing in.
- Choose a category — SERP search, AI Ranking, or Social Media.
- Configure your query — set the search engine, country, number of results, and filters.
- Hit Run — the playground calls the API and displays formatted results with timing, result count, and the raw JSON response.
Supported Search Engines
Serpent API supports four major search engines: Google (web, news RSS, images), Yahoo (web, news, images, videos — 112 countries), Bing (same backend as Yahoo), and DuckDuckGo (web, news, images, videos — lightweight HTML scraping). Each engine returns structured data including organic results, ads, People Also Ask, related searches, featured snippets, and more.
Pricing
Searches start from $0.03 per 10,000 pages at Scale tier — flat per-call pricing (10 pages = 1 charge). Every new account gets 10 free web searches. See full pricing for per-engine costs across all tiers.
