SerpApi

listing.about

Connects to SerpApi to run live searches across Google, Bing, Yahoo, DuckDuckGo, YouTube, eBay and other engines. One search tool covers web, news, shopping, jobs, local, flights, hotels, images, weather and stock results. Engine parameter schemas are exposed as MCP resources, and optional table and dashboard tools render results visually in hosts that support MCP Apps.

Runs as a hosted streamable HTTP endpoint at mcp.serpapi.com, or locally from the open source repository (Python with uv) or an MCPB bundle. Connecting and listing tools needs no key, but searching requires a SerpApi API key, sent as a Bearer header or in the URL path.
