# Best rank tracker API: ranked by live price

The best rank tracker API reads deep enough to find your page in one call. An endpoint that returns a hundred results answers a keyword check at once, while one that returns ten may need several calls. This page ranks the looot catalog providers by live price per call and says how deep each reads.

## Live prices

## How we rank

Every provider here has a Google organic results endpoint in the looot catalog, billed per call.

We rank by the cheapest per-call price among a provider's Google organic endpoints, read live from the catalog. A cheaper call ranks higher.

A cheap call is not always a cheap keyword check. An endpoint that reads ten results per call needs more calls to find a page in position 40 than one that reads a hundred. The verdicts say how deep each one reads.

The catalog does not publish a measured success rate for these endpoints, so this page does not rank by one and quotes none.

Providers outside the looot catalog are not ranked, and tools that track positions inside their own app are out of scope.

## Cheapest rank tracker API per 1,000 searches

On 2026-11-04 the cheapest rank tracker API in the looot catalog is AnyAPI at $0.90 per 1,000 searches ($0.0009 per call), then Serper at $1.00 and ScrapeCreators at $1.88. The dearest, SerpApi, costs $25.00 per 1,000 searches.

The ranking shows each provider's live price per call and per 1,000 searches. With an endpoint that reads a hundred results, one call is one keyword check. With one that reads ten, a check that must reach the third page costs three calls.

Keep the country, language and device the same from one check to the next, or the positions will not compare.

## Rank tracker API or SERP API

Both read the same Google results. A SERP API list cares about everything on the page: AI Overview, news, images, local. A rank tracker cares about one thing: the position of your domain, found in as few calls as possible.

If you need the whole results page, the SERP API list ranks the same providers for that job.

## What is the best rank tracker API?

The one that finds your page in the fewest calls at a price you accept. This page ranks the looot catalog providers by live price per call and notes how deep each reads. Serper and the SearchAPI.io rank tracking endpoint read up to a hundred results in one call.

## What is the cheapest rank tracker API?

Read the first rows of the ranking above, then check depth. A cheap call that returns ten results can cost more per keyword check than a dearer one that returns a hundred, when your page sits past the first page.

## What is a rank tracker API?

An endpoint that reads Google's organic results for a keyword in a given market so your agent can find the position of a domain in them. You send the keyword, the country and the domain, and get the position and the ranking URL back.

## Is a rank tracker API different from a SERP API?

It is the same data used for a narrower job. A rank check only needs the organic links deep enough to find your page, so depth per call matters more than the extra result blocks.

## Is there a free rank tracker API?

This page ranks priced endpoints. Google Search Console reports the average position of your own verified site at no cost, and the free keyword rank checker on looot checks one keyword at a time in the browser.

## What are the best AccuRanker alternatives?

AccuRanker is not in the looot catalog, so this page does not rank it. The providers above return Google organic results your agent can scan for your domain, billed per call with one key.

## How many results does one call return?

Serper and the SearchAPI.io rank tracking endpoint read up to a hundred. AnyAPI and ScrapeCreators read about one page of ten per call. Cloro bills by the pages you ask for. Check the depth setting of any other endpoint before a long list.

## Can I track rankings on mobile or in another country?

Yes. Set the device, the country and the language in the call. SearchAPI.io and SerpApi take a device type. Positions differ between markets, so report the market with every number.

## How do I track many keywords in bulk?

Your agent sends one call per keyword and market and shows the total cost before it runs the list. With an endpoint that reads a hundred results, each keyword is one call.

## Can I track rankings every day?

Running the checks by hand works today, and your agent can store the date with each position. Running them on a timer needs scheduled runs, not available yet.

## How does an agent call a rank tracker API?

Paste the prompt on this page into your agent. It sets up looot, finds the Google organic endpoints, checks the price and depth, and runs the cheapest one that reads deep enough.

## Why does this page not show success rates?

The catalog does not publish a measured success rate for these endpoints. We rank by a price we can read for every provider and leave rates out.
