It covers web, news, images, shopping, jobs, videos and autocomplete, can return the top 100 Google results in one request, and offers bulk and scheduled requests with postback URLs.

## Key features

- **Google, Bing and Yahoo results:** Organic results, featured snippets, People Also Ask and local results, with web, news, images, shopping, jobs, videos, forums and autocomplete searches.
- **Location and device targeting:** Results from 245 countries down to state, city and municipality level, for desktop or mobile, using Google's own geographic targeting.
- **Top 100 results in one request:** A single Google request can return the first 100 results, priced separately at ten times a standard search.
- **Bulk and scheduled requests:** Send keywords in bulk and have results delivered to a postback or pingback URL instead of waiting on each response.
- **Keyword Rank Tracker for Google Sheets:** A free add-on runs rank checks by keyword, location and device on a daily or weekly schedule and appends each result to the sheet.
- **No Trace mode:** A request flag that deletes the response and its logs once delivered, offered only to Enterprise subscribers.

## Good for

- Developers who need Google, Bing and Yahoo results from one API
- Freelancers tracking client rankings inside Google Sheets
- Low-cost SERP data at small monthly volumes

## Worth knowing

- A standard search costs 10 credits, so Basic's 400,000 credits cover about 40,000 searches a month.
- Ad results are returned for Google only, not for Bing or Yahoo.
- Zero-retention No Trace mode is limited to Enterprise subscribers.
- There is no published yearly price; larger volumes go through a custom plan by email.

## ToolGPA grades

**GPA: 2.4 out of 4**, graded Oct 23, 2026. SERPHouse returns live Google, Bing and Yahoo results down to city level, with a free Google Sheets add-on that tracks rankings on the same credits. Ads come back for Google only, the no-logs mode is Enterprise only, and there's no yearly price, nor any plan past $49.99 without emailing them.

- **Value for money: B.** Basic is $29.99 a month for 400,000 credits, inside this category's usual range, but at 10 credits a search that's about 40,000 searches, $0.75 per 1,000, one of the lowest rates here. Regular is $0.62.
- **Free plan and trial: C.** 4,000 credits a month with no card, about 400 searches, but only for a work email. Sign up with a personal email and they last 7 days.
- **Features: C.** Google, Bing and Yahoo with web, news, images, shopping, jobs and videos, city targeting, the top 100 Google results in one call and bulk requests. The listing's own gap: ads come back for Google only, not Bing or Yahoo.
- **Ease of use: C.** Judged on how fast a developer gets a first result: bulk requests delivered to a postback URL, and a Google Sheets add-on that checks ranks with no code. No rating on record.
- **Platforms and integrations: B.** Web, with an API, postback URLs and its own Google Sheets add-on for scheduled rank checks. No desktop or phone app, so B is the top.

## Keep it, or make your own?

**Keep it.** To replace SERPHouse 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. It costs $359.88 a year.

- You could not: Search results fetched at scale from many countries without being blocked.
- You could not: Daily checks of where your pages rank in search results.
- You could not: It plugs into other products, Google Sheets among them, and has an API.
