# HasData review (2026): is the free plan enough?

> Google SERP API and web scraping APIs on one monthly credit allowance

Checked Oct 23, 2026 · graded Oct 23, 2026 by ToolGPA.

HasData is a web scraping service whose Google SERP API returns live Google results as JSON, with organic results, ads, local results and AI Overviews, set by city, language and device. A cheaper Light endpoint, a rank checker, Google AI Mode, News, Shopping, Scholar and Maps APIs, a ChatGPT scraper, a general web scraping API and no-code scrapers draw on the same credits.

## Ways to pay less

- **Two months free with annual billing** (Annual discount): HasData's pricing page charges a year for the price of ten months: Startup is $590 a year instead of $59 a month. Source: https://hasdata.com/prices

## Key features

- **Google SERP API:** Live Google results as JSON from 22 parameters, including location, coordinates, language, device and date filters, with ads kept apart from organic results.
- **SERP Light and Rank Checker:** Cheaper endpoints with fewer parameters, at half the credits of the full SERP API, for keyword position checks across large lists.
- **AI Overviews and AI Mode:** Collect Google AI Overview answers with their cited sources, and query Google AI Mode and ChatGPT through their own scraper APIs.
- **Other Google endpoints:** Separate APIs for Google Maps, News, Scholar, Shopping, Products, Events, Short Videos and Flights, priced per 1,000 requests by plan.
- **Web scraping API and no-code scrapers:** Fetch any page with JavaScript rendering and proxies, or run ready-made scrapers for Google Maps, Amazon and Zillow without code.
- **MCP servers, CLI and agent skills:** MCP servers for Google Search, Maps, Amazon and Zillow, a command-line tool, agent skills and ready prompts for coding agents.

## Good for

- Developers building rank trackers or SEO dashboards on Google data
- Watching which sites Google AI Overviews cite for chosen queries
- Teams that also want no-code scrapers for Maps or Amazon

## Worth knowing

- A Google SERP API call costs 10 credits and a Light or Rank Checker call 5, against 1 credit for a plain page fetch.
- The free plan covers only 100 full SERP calls a month at 5 concurrent requests.
- The displayed plan prices are for yearly billing, charged up front; monthly billing costs about a fifth more.
- Failed requests have their credits returned, and plans can be changed or cancelled from the dashboard.

## ToolGPA grades

**GPA: 2.2 out of 4**, graded Oct 23, 2026. HasData's Google SERP API returns live results with ads, local results and AI Overviews, with Maps, News, AI Mode and a web scraper on the same credits. It covers Google only, the free plan is 100 searches a month, and the $49 price is for a year paid up front.

- **Value for money: C.** Startup is $49 a month on yearly billing, paid up front, or $59 monthly, at the dear end of this category's usual range. A SERP call is 10 credits, so that's 20,000 searches, about $2.45 per 1,000.
- **Free plan and trial: C.** A free plan for good with no card: 1,000 credits a month across every tool. That's 100 full Google SERP calls, which you'll go through quickly.
- **Features: C.** Google results with ads, local results and AI Overviews by city, device and language, plus AI Mode, Maps, News, Scholar, Shopping and a ChatGPT scraper. It covers Google only: no Bing or other search engine is in the listing.
- **Ease of use: C.** Judged on how fast a developer gets a first result: a CLI, MCP servers and ready prompts for coding agents. No rating on record.
- **Platforms and integrations: B.** Web, with an API, a CLI and MCP servers, plus n8n, Make, Zapier, Postman and OpenClaw. No desktop or phone app, so B is the top.

## Keep it, or make your own?

**Keep it.** To replace HasData you would be making search results fetched at scale from many countries without being blocked. That is not a weekend's work, with an AI app builder or without one. That makes this kind of software worth paying for, not this one in particular: 23 of the 38 other SERP and SEO data APIs grade higher. It costs $588 a year.

- You could not: Search results fetched at scale from many countries without being blocked.
- You could not: It plugs into other products, n8n, Make and Zapier among them, and has an API.
- You could not: AI features, unless you pay a model provider for each request yourself.

A judgement by ToolGPA from this listing, by rules that are the same for every tool. Nothing was built to test it.
