anyserp

Unified SERP API router for Python. Route search requests across Google, Bing, Brave, and more with a single API. Self-hosted, zero fees.

Why anyserp?

One SDK, 11 SERP providers. Switch providers without changing code. Every provider returns the same unified response format, so your application logic stays consistent regardless of which provider you use. Self-hosted with your own API keys and zero routing fees. Built-in fallback routing means if one provider fails, the next is tried automatically. Zero heavy dependencies. Just httpx.

Install

pip install anyserp

Quick Start

Set your API keys as environment variables:

export SERPER_API_KEY=...
export BRAVE_API_KEY=...

import asyncio
from anyserp import AnySerp

async def main():
    client = AnySerp()

    # Search with the first available provider
    results = await client.search("best python frameworks")
    print(results["results"][0]["title"], results["results"][0]["url"])

asyncio.run(main())

Provider Routing

Specify a provider with provider/query format:

# Use a specific provider
results = await client.search("serper/python frameworks")

# Or just search with the first available
results = await client.search("python frameworks")

Search Options

results = await client.search({
    "query": "python frameworks",
    "num": 20,             # number of results
    "page": 2,             # page number
    "country": "us",       # country code
    "language": "en",      # language code
    "safe": True,          # safe search
    "type": "web",         # web, images, news, videos
    "dateRange": "month",  # day, week, month, year
})

Fallback Routing

Try multiple providers in order. If one fails, the next is attempted:

results = await client.search_with_fallback(
    {"query": "python frameworks"},
    ["serper", "brave", "bing"],
)

Search All Providers

Search all configured providers and get combined results:

all_results = await client.search_all({"query": "python frameworks"})

for result in all_results:
    print(f"{result['provider']}: {len(result['results'])} results")

Unified Response Format

All providers return the same response shape:

{
    "provider": "serper",
    "query": "python frameworks",
    "results": [
        {
            "position": 1,
            "title": "...",
            "url": "...",
            "description": "...",
