It covers only properties the signed-in user manages, returns at most 50,000 rows a day per search type, and has no status page, SLA or dedicated changelog. A person must complete OAuth consent first.\n\n**Keywords Everywhere API + MCP.** Fourteen read-only lookups with a published credit cost each, available over REST and a hosted MCP server listed in the official registry. Data needs an annual plan from $84, with no trial. No OpenAPI file, no REST rate limit and no API changelog were found, and the status page shows outages on seven of the last 90 days.\n\n## Before you call either\n\n### Google Search Console API\n\n1. URL-encode the property in the path. A URL-prefix property needs its trailing slash, and a Domain property is written `sc-domain:example.com`\n2. Query one day at a time and page with `startRow` in steps of 25,000 until a response has no rows\n3. Leave `page` and `query` out of `dimensions` when totals must be accurate. Grouping by either drops some data\n4. Ask for `webmasters.readonly` unless the task adds or deletes properties or sitemaps\n5. After a quota exceeded error wait 15 minutes. If it repeats, the daily load quota is spent, so shorten date ranges and drop page or query grouping\n\n### Keywords Everywhere API + MCP\n\n1. Send the key as `Authorization: Bearer \u003ckey\u003e` to `https://api.keywordseverywhere.com/v1`. The same key works on the MCP server\n2. Call `GET /v1/account/credits` (free) before a large pull. A short balance returns 402 with `402 Insufficient Credits`\n3. Set `num` on domain, URL and backlink lookups. It accepts 1 to 10,000 and every returned row is charged 1, 2 or 5 credits\n4. Batch up to 100 keywords in one `get_keyword_data` call and set `country`. Without it the figures are global\n5. Keep MCP use under 120 tool calls a minute per account, and wait a minute after a Too many requests error\n\n## Questions\n\n### Which is better for AI agents, Google Search Console API or Keywords Everywhere API + MCP?\n\nGoogle Search Console API scores 59 (C) on agent readiness against Keywords Everywhere API + MCP's 47.2 (D), and leads in 5 of 7 scored categories.
