Scrappa is significantly more affordable across the volumes where SerpAPI publishes self-serve pricing. At 30,000 SERPs per month — SerpAPI's largest documented Big Data tier — Scrappa costs about $9 compared to $275/month for SerpAPI, while Serper.dev's nearest prepaid pack is $50 for 50,000 credits. Past those volumes, Scrappa scales to about $200 per 1,000,000 SERPs at the Ultimate tier rate ($0.20 per 1,000), and Serper.dev's higher-volume top-up tiers still bill at $0.30–$1.00 per 1,000 — all while accessing the same data sources.

Among the major Google SERP API providers, Scrappa is the cheapest at $0.20–$0.30 per 1,000 SERP queries. SerpAPI ranges from roughly $25.00 per 1,000 SERPs on the Starter plan down to about $9.17 per 1,000 on the Big Data plan, Serper.dev runs $0.30–$1.00 per 1,000 depending on plan tier, and ScraperAPI ranges from roughly $12.25 per 1,000 SERPs on Hobby to about $2.29 per 1,000 SERPs on its largest public plan because each Google Search request consumes 25 API credits. Scrappa is also the cheapest entry point — credit packs start at $10 with no monthly commitment, while SerpAPI starts at $25/month, Serper.dev at $50 for 50,000 prepaid credits, and ScraperAPI at $49/month.

Yes. Scrappa includes a free SERP API tier with 500 recurring credits every month after email verification — each credit covers one Google Search, Maps, News, Images, Videos, or Jobs query, no credit card required. By comparison, SerpAPI offers 250 free Google searches per month, Serper.dev gives 2,500 one-time free credits, and ScraperAPI advertises 1,000 free API credits plus a 7-day free trial before requiring a paid plan. Scrappa offers the largest recurring monthly free SERP API tier in this group, which makes it a better fit for ongoing testing than a one-off trial.

SERP API pricing per request varies widely. On Scrappa, a single Google SERP query costs $0.0002–$0.0003 (1 credit). SerpAPI charges about $0.025 per Google SERP on the Starter plan and roughly $0.009 on the Big Data plan. Serper.dev ranges from $0.0003 to $0.001 depending on plan. ScraperAPI bills 25 credits per Google Search, which works out to roughly $0.012 per SERP on Hobby and about $0.002 per SERP on its largest public plan.

ScraperAPI pricing is built around monthly API-credit plans, while Scrappa supports both flexible credit packs and subscription plans. Scrappa starts at $10 for 33,000 requests and prices each request at 1 credit, or about $0.30 per 1,000 requests on Starter. Scrappa drops to $0.20 per 1,000 requests at the Ultimate tier. ScraperAPI monthly plans start at $49 and common SERP workloads can consume multiple API credits per request, so the effective cost per request and per 1,000 requests depends on workload type.

No. ScraperAPI documentation lists Google SERP requests at 25 API credits per scrape, so the effective cost per 1,000 Google SERP requests is different from the headline API-credit count. Scrappa keeps Google Search API pricing at 1 credit per request, or $0.20-$0.30 per 1,000 requests depending on the pack.

ScraperAPI advertises a 7-day trial with 5,000 API credits, and ScraperAPI materials reference a 1,000-credit monthly free plan, so compare whether you need a short trial burst or recurring free testing credits.
