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**SerpApi.** Over 100 engines behind one GET URL, with `json_restrictor` field selection and `output=md`. 25 incidents on the status feed from July to 1 October 2026, including an outage across all APIs on 10 September.\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### SerpApi\n\n1. Use the MCP with `Authorization: Bearer`, not the key-in-path URL the README leads with\n2. Read `serpapi://engines/\u003cengine\u003e` before calling a new engine, since `params` isn't typed\n3. Add `json_restrictor` or `output=md` to cut tokens, and `mode: compact` on the MCP\n4. A 429 means either the hourly limit or an empty balance. Check the account before retrying\n5. Repeat a search within the hour and the cached copy is free. Set `no_cache=true` only when freshness matters\n\n## Questions\n\n### Which is better for AI agents, Web Search Tool on Amazon Bedrock AgentCore or SerpApi?\n\nWeb Search Tool on Amazon Bedrock AgentCore scores 74.3 (BB) on agent readiness against SerpApi's 62.5 (B), and leads in 3 of 7 scored categories. SerpApi leads on agent ergonomics and transparency \u0026 trust.\n\n### Which is cheaper for web search, Web Search Tool on Amazon Bedrock AgentCore or SerpApi?\n\nWeb Search Tool on Amazon Bedrock AgentCore, at $7 per 1,000 requests against $25 per 1,000 requests for SerpApi. These are the vendors' published prices for the job.\n\n### Do Web Search Tool on Amazon Bedrock AgentCore and SerpApi need an API key?\n\nWeb Search Tool on Amazon Bedrock AgentCore takes an API key or an OAuth sign-in. SerpApi needs an API key.\n\n### Can an agent call Web Search Tool on Amazon Bedrock AgentCore and SerpApi without installing anything?\n\nYes. Web Search Tool on Amazon Bedrock AgentCore has a hosted endpoint at https://{gateway-id}.gateway.bedrock-agentcore.{region}.amazonaws.com/mcp and SerpApi at https://serpapi.com/search.\n\n\n## For agents\n\n- This comparison as JSON: https://www.anchorterminal.com/compare/agentcore-web-search-vs-serpapi.json, and with the fewest tokens: https://www.anchorterminal.com/compare/agentcore-web-search-vs-serpapi.min.md\n- Over MCP at https://www.anchorterminal.com/mcp (no key): `compare_tools {\"a\": \"agentcore-web-search\", \"b\": \"serpapi\"}`.
