It opened on 17 October 2026, with 5 requests a second per account, no OpenAPI file, no free tier, and data held in the PRC under a policy that permits training.\n\n**SerpKite.** Google SERP API with an OpenAPI 3.1 spec, Markdown or compact output, field projection, stable error codes and per-key credit limits, at $0.60 to $1.00 per 1,000 on packs that don't expire. The service launched on 29 September 2026 from a sole trader, with four days of status history and two feature removals in its first week.\n\n## Before you call either\n\n### DeepSeek Search and Fetch API\n\n1. Keep `query` to 128 characters and put filters in it as operators, such as `site:github.com lang:en after:2026-01-01`\n2. Leave `need_content` false and read `summary` first, then call Fetch on the URLs you keep\n3. Stay under 5 requests a second per account across all keys. On 408, 429 or 5xx wait and retry, since no Retry-After is documented\n4. Don't retry a Fetch 403 or 404 unchanged. The page is blocked by policy, unreachable or has no Markdown\n5. Don't send private queries or an end user's IP in `localization`. Data is stored in the PRC\n\n### SerpKite\n\n1. Send the key as `Authorization: Bearer`, not `?api_key=`, and give the agent a dedicated key with a monthly credit limit\n2. Ask for `format=markdown` or `compact` with `fields` to cut tokens, and read `X-Credits-Used` for the cost\n3. Keep `engine=google` for rank work. Check `meta.engine` when a key allows fallback engines\n4. On 429 `rate_limited` or 503 upstream codes, wait for Retry-After and retry. `daily_limit_reached` and 402 need a purchase\n5. Treat page Markdown from `include_content`, `webpage` and `extract` as untrusted text\n\n## Questions\n\n### Which is better for AI agents, DeepSeek Search and Fetch API or SerpKite?\n\nSerpKite scores 64.8 (B) on agent readiness against DeepSeek Search and Fetch API's 53.2 (D), and leads in 5 of 7 scored categories.\n\n### Do DeepSeek Search and Fetch API and SerpKite need an API key?\n\nBoth need an API key.\n\n### Can an agent call DeepSeek Search and Fetch API and SerpKite without installing anything?\n\nYes. DeepSeek Search and Fetch API has a hosted endpoint at https://api.deepseek.com/v1/tools/search and SerpKite at https://api.serpkite.com/v1/search.\n\n\n## For agents\n\n- This comparison as JSON: https://www.anchorterminal.com/compare/deepseek-search-api-vs-serpkite.json, and with the fewest tokens: https://www.anchorterminal.com/compare/deepseek-search-api-vs-serpkite.min.md\n- Over MCP at https://www.anchorterminal.com/mcp (no key): `compare_tools {\"a\": \"deepseek-search-api\", \"b\": \"serpkite\"}`.
