API

Track any domain yourself

This page is an aggregate of ordinary search calls — one per query, once a week. Nothing here needs a special endpoint or a rank-tracking contract.

curl --request GET \
  --url 'https://serpens.p.rapidapi.com/api/v1/search?q=site%3Aopenapi.com&gl=us&hl=en&format=json' \
  --header 'x-rapidapi-host: serpens.p.rapidapi.com' \
  --header 'x-rapidapi-key: YOUR_KEY'

Build this for your own domain

Free tier, no card. One endpoint returns organic results, the AI Overview and its citations together, so ranking and citation come out of the same call.
