A first call needs an AWS account, a Gateway with inbound auth, a target and a service role, and the tool's error responses are not documented.\n\n**SearchAPI.io.** 99.9% SLA on every plan and no incidents on the status page since August. MCP exposes over 100 tools with no toolsets.\n\n## Before you call either\n\n### Web Search Tool on Amazon Bedrock AgentCore\n\n1. Call `tools/list` on the gateway and take the tool's name from it. AWS's call examples name gateway tools by target and tool\n2. Keep `query` to 200 characters and `maxResults` between 1 and 25 (default 10). The published schema states these limits only in descriptions\n3. Check the target's connector version before sending `filters`. Version 1.1.0, the default, exposes only `query` and `maxResults`\n4. Keep each result's URL and title with any answer built from it. AWS's acceptable-use terms require shown citations and bar storing results in bulk\n5. On a throttled request, wait the `retryAfter` seconds in the error body. The default quota is 10 Web Search requests a second, adjustable\n\n### SearchAPI.io\n\n1. Send the key as `Authorization: Bearer`, not `api_key=` in the URL\n2. Connect the MCP through OAuth or the `X-MCP-Token` header, not the registry's `?token=` URL\n3. Call the REST API with `engine=` when context is tight. The MCP loads over 100 tool definitions\n4. Page Google results with `page`. `num` is fixed at 10\n5. Pace bursts. One hour can use at most 20 per cent of the plan's monthly searches\n\n## Questions\n\n### Which is better for AI agents, Web Search Tool on Amazon Bedrock AgentCore or SearchAPI.io?\n\nWeb Search Tool on Amazon Bedrock AgentCore scores 74.3 (BB) on agent readiness against SearchAPI.io's 51.2 (D), and leads in 5 of 7 scored categories.\n\n### Which is cheaper for web search, Web Search Tool on Amazon Bedrock AgentCore or SearchAPI.io?\n\nSearchAPI.io, at $4 per 1,000 requests against $7 per 1,000 requests for Web Search Tool on Amazon Bedrock AgentCore.
