SerpAPI Alternative — 10x Cheaper

Why Developers Are Switching from SerpAPI

SerpAPI is good. The documentation is solid, the results are accurate, and the API is reliable. But at $75/month for just 5,000 searches, it gets expensive fast — especially for side projects, startups, or apps that need high volume.

NestDaddy Search API covers the same use case: clean JSON web search results, pagination, language filters, date sorting. The difference is price. At $9.99/month for 10,000 requests, you get twice the volume for less than 15% of the cost.

No scraping tricks, no proxy juggling. Just a REST endpoint that returns structured search results.

Quick Start — Same Code, Lower Bill

Drop-in replacement. Change the endpoint and API key, nothing else.

import requests

# NestDaddy Search API
url = "https://nestdaddy.com/api/search"
params = {
    "q": "python web scraping",
    "lang": "en",
    "sort": "date",   # relevance or date
    "page": 1
}
headers = {"X-API-Key": "your_api_key"}

response = requests.get(url, params=params, headers=headers)
results = response.json()

for item in results["results"]:
    print(item["title"], item["url"])

const res = await fetch(
  "https://nestdaddy.com/api/search?q=python+scraping&lang=en",
  { headers: { "X-API-Key": "your_api_key" } }
);
const data = await res.json();
data.results.forEach(r => console.log(r.title, r.url));
