Crawlbase

crawlbase.com / hybrid

Crawlbase is a general web-scraping API with a Google SERP use case rather than a dedicated SERP product, and that shows in the pricing: it is the only provider in this set where you cannot compute the cost of a Google search from the public page. Entry is genuinely $0 with 5,000 free requests and a no-minimum pay-as-you-go ladder starting at $3.00 per 1,000 standard credits, falling to $0.02 per 1,000 at the top bracket; subscriptions start at $99/month for 200,000 credits with 8% off plus a free month annually. The catch is the multiplier stack. A credit is one standard request, JavaScript rendering doubles it, and an automatically applied site-difficulty tier can multiply it by up to 20 - and Crawlbase never publishes which tier google.com sits in. You only learn the tier after the request, from the domain_complexity field or the X-Domain-Complexity header. Treat every headline rate here as a floor for Google work, not a price. Only successful requests are billed.

Every published plan

Plan Price Included credits Overage each Note
Pay-as-you-go $0 per month 0 $0.0030 No monthly fee and no minimum. Graduated ladder, first 1,000 requests at $3.00 per 1,000; see payAsYouGoTiers for the full card. The rate shown here is the first bracket, and it is per credit, so multiply by the site-difficulty and JavaScript multipliers for an actual Google request.
Starter $99.00 per month 200,000 not published $1,089/year annually. Overage is allowed and "continues at the bracket already reached" on the graduated card, so there is no single published overage rate.
Scale 500K $199 per month 500,000 not published $2,189/year annually. Overage continues on the graduated card.
Scale 1M $349 per month 1,000,000 not published $3,839/year annually. Overage continues on the graduated card.
Growth $599 per month 2,000,000 not published $6,589/year annually. Overage continues on the graduated card.
Enterprise on request - not published Contact-us tier: custom volume and invoicing, no public price.

"One credit is one standard request." Published multipliers: JavaScript rendering x2, screenshot 2 credits per capture, cloud storage 0.5 credits per page per month, and a site-difficulty ladder of Standard x1, Moderate x1.5, Complex x2, Complex I x3, Complex II x4.5, Extreme x9, Extreme I x13.5, Extreme II x20. Crawlbase does NOT publish which difficulty tier google.com falls into - the pricing page says only that "Most sites are standard" and that "Heavily defended sites carry a higher tier, applied automatically", the pricing blog names only LinkedIn (a separate Fixed tier), and the Crawling API docs return the tier after the fact in the domain_complexity field and the X-Domain-Complexity response header. The google.com multiplier is therefore unknown and every engine field is null rather than assumed to be 1. A Google SERP request also normally needs JavaScript rendering, which is a further x2. Only successful requests are billed.
