Decodo
Decodo (formerly Smartproxy) is a proxy platform that sells SERP as one product line, so the entry price is a proxy-vendor subscription rather than a per-search API plan. The cheapest paid entry is $19/month for 38,000 standard-proxy requests ($0.50/1K), and volume is what moves the rate: $0.14/1K at $99/month. The catch is that the headline rate assumes standard proxies with no JavaScript rendering; premium proxies with JS cost $1.20 to $1.50 per 1K on the same plan, up to roughly 9x the headline. https://decodo.com/pricing/serp-scraping-api returns HTTP 404, so the plan table was read from the product pages instead. Overage rates, credit rollover, an annual discount, and the exact terms of the Free plan are not published; all are recorded null.

Decodo prices one successful request the same regardless of Google vertical or engine. The real multiplier is the proxy type, not the SERP target: on the Business plan the published rates are $0.14/1K standard, $0.60/1K standard + JS rendering, $0.85/1K premium, $1.20/1K premium + JS. All plan numbers recorded here use the standard-proxy rate.
