SERP verticals
What this board tests: google serp verticals (web, news, images, places, scholar) as structured json. Every provider below ran the identical corpus on 2026-06-22. The composite blends measured quality, latency p50, cost per successful call and error rate. Method and corpora: how we measure.
| Rank | Provider | Composite | Quality | Cost | Latency p50 | Field note |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 |  Serper |
9.56/10 | 1.00 | $0.0003 / call | 1.0 s | Lowest cost and latency; Google only. |
| 2 |  SearchAPI.io |
9.02/10 | 0.98 | $0.004 / call | 1.9 s | Widest vertical coverage, with SerpApi-compatible JSON. |
| 3 |  SerpApi |
9/10 | 1.00 | $0.015 / call | 1.4 s | Every tested vertical is covered. |
| 4 |  DataForSEO |
8.09/10 | 0.93 | $0.002 / call | 8.2 s |
Low scores are published alongside high ones — a ranking you can only trust if nothing gets hidden. The gateway's fee sits on top-ups, not per call, so the order above earns us nothing either way.
