Not enough calls to rank

SerpApi: under 10 calls in 30 days, $0.025 per call

How this works

Cost per successful search = price per search / success rate. You pay for every call, so failed calls raise what each answer costs.
Total = price per search x number of queries. Monthly: per year = per month x 12.
Data: every google.serp.organic call made through looot in the last 30 days, read 2026-11-11 18:46 UTC. The same numbers as the benchmark page for this job.
Success rate: the share of calls the provider answered without an error. An empty answer counts as an answer. It does not check that the data is right.
Speed: the median (p50) time, so half of a provider's calls answered faster. Fastest = the ranked provider with the lowest median. looot does not publish a 95th percentile yet, so the slowest calls are not shown.
Ranked by cost per successful call, then success rate, then speed. A provider needs 20 calls in the last 30 days to be ranked, the same floor as the benchmark pages.
Price: what looot charges per call, in US dollars, from a prepaid balance. A row with a note bills fewer calls than that, so its total is the most you would pay.
Source: GET https://api.looot.ai/v1/public-catalog/<endpoint>?stats=1 for each endpoint, and the public catalog for prices.

Sources: google.serp.organic benchmark, looot public catalog API.

Run google.serp.organic on looot

Run the job itself (job:google.serp.organic) with fallback on: looot picks a provider that can answer now and tries the next on a miss. You see the price before each call and pay from a prepaid balance.

Prompt for your agent

Use looot to run endpointId "job:google.serp.organic" with fallback on for my input. Show me the price before the call, then the result.

Start a workspace and run job:google.serp.organic

Run it from your agent

Copy one prompt, give it to your agent.

Fill in the placeholder, paste it, and the agent runs the same job with current data on your looot account and shows the cost.

You give it: how many queries you have, and whether that is every month.
Billed per call, nothing while your agent is idle.
The agent shows the price before it calls.

Questions about serp api cost

It is the price per search divided by the success rate. A provider that answers 8 calls in 10 costs 1.25 times its price for each answered search, because you pay for the failed calls too.

From every google.serp.organic call made through looot in the last 30 days, the same data as the benchmark page for this job. Prices are what looot charges per call from a prepaid balance. The page prints the date it read them.

A provider needs 20 calls in the last 30 days to be ranked, the same floor as the benchmark pages. Below that, a few calls move the success rate too much to compare.
