# serp.cloud > DRAFT, not yet launched. serp.cloud is an API and remote MCP server for developers and AI agents: public search results (Google, Bing, DuckDuckGo, Google News, autocomplete) as structured JSON, any public web page as Markdown, and a 0-100 domain authority score with backlinks. Plans and prices on the site are proposals until launch. Key facts for agents: - Authentication is an API key sent as the `X-Api-Key` header; the MCP server takes the same key. - One call is one uncached search page, page read or lookup. Cached results and blocked page reads are not counted. - The search response follows the SerpApi field names (`search_metadata`, `organic_results`, `related_questions`, `ai_overview`) at `schema_version` "1"; fields are only ever added. - When a plan's monthly calls are used up the API answers 402 with an `upgrade_url`; there are no overage charges. Rate limiting answers 429 with `Retry-After`. - Fresh Google pages are rendered in real browsers and paced; send large Google workloads as batch jobs with a webhook. - The reader follows robots.txt by default. - Not allowed: manipulating rankings or traffic, collecting personal data for resale, reading content behind logins. ## Pages - [Home](https://serp.cloud/): features, plans, FAQ - [Terms of Service](https://serp.cloud/terms.html): acceptable use, billing, liability - [Privacy Policy](https://serp.cloud/privacy.html): what is stored, processors, retention - [Refund Policy](https://serp.cloud/refund.html): refund windows and how to ask - [Cancellation Policy](https://serp.cloud/cancellation.html): how to cancel, renewals and reminders - [Contact and Support](https://serp.cloud/contact.html): how to reach us
