Latest
Guest reviews, property lookup and ten vertical engines
- One customer dashboard. The workspace now lives on the API host (usage breakdowns, request history with detail, and the API access page); the marketing site's simplified dashboard and account pages forward there. Customer sign-in on the marketing site lands in the same workspace.
- Self-serve key rotation. The API access page rotates your key: the replacement keeps your key's name and rate limit, the old key stops working immediately, and the new key is shown once.
- Guest reviews for five hotel sources. Page-by-page reviews with rating, title, text, author, stay details, the property's reply and upstream labels ("Verified review", "Liked: …"), each page with provenance: Tripadvisor, Booking.com, Expedia, Hotels.com and Google Hotels (mixed by provider: Google, Tripadvisor, Priceline…). 2 credits per page. Guide.
- Property lookup with addresses. POST /v1/hotels/resolve turns a hotel name plus a place into property tokens, each confirmed by its mailing address and phone; POST /v1/hotels/property returns the same details record for a token you already have. 12 credits for resolve, 3 for details. Guide.
- Ten vertical engines, same API and key. Google News (/v1/news, 1 credit), Google web search with People Also Ask and the AI Overview (/v1/google/search, 5), Bing (/v1/bing/search, 1), Google Trends (interest and related, 1 each), Google Maps (search and detail, 3 each), Google Jobs (/v1/jobs/search, 3), Google Shopping (/v1/shopping/search, 3), Amazon (search, reviews), Walmart (search, reviews) and Indeed (/v1/indeed/jobs, 1). Guide.
- MCP tools. The MCP server gains
resolve_google_hotel(name + place to a token, with addresses) andhotel_guest_reviews(Google Hotels reviews). See the MCP server.
New sources, flights and MCP
- Google Hotels destination search. POST /v1/hotels/search lists the properties Google Hotels shows for a destination, with prices (base, taxes, fees and total kept apart), ratings, filters and paging; POST /v1/serp/google_hotels is the SearchAPI
google_hotelsshape. 3 credits per page; an empty page is free. Guide. - Airbnb priced calendar. POST /v1/airbnb/calendar returns 1-12 months of availability and stay rules with Airbnb's own quoted prices; POST /v1/serp/airbnb_property_availability_calendar is the SearchAPI shape. 8 credits plus 1 per priced night. Guide.
- Expedia and Vrbo. Name search and rooms with rate plans on Expedia (search, rates), and vacation-rental search and stay quotes on Vrbo (search, quote). OTA compare takes
expedia_property_idandexpedia_market, and reports each price's basis (price_basis,by_price_basis). Guide. - Google Flights, complete. Search returns every itinerary with per-segment detail, price insights and many more filters (stops, airlines, times, bags, emissions, layovers, multi-city). New: return and next-leg options, booking options and location search. Guide.
- Changed: Google Flights tokens.
booking_tokennow means the tokenPOST /v1/serp/google_flights_bookingtakes (SerpApi's meaning) and appears only on complete itineraries; earlier legs carrydeparture_token. Google's raw price token, previously returned asbooking_token, is nowprice_tokenon every itinerary: switch to it if you usedbooking_tokenas an itinerary key. One-way searches are now priced as one-way (they used to return round-trip fares), so one-way prices drop. - MCP server. 18 read-only tools for AI agents at
https://api.scrapercompany.com/mcp, authenticated with your API key and metered like the REST calls they wrap. Set it up. - Health.
GET /healthnow also returns the deployedcommitand the process'sstarted_at(Status).
- Credit metering (beta, shadow mode), rolling out. Metered responses carry
x-credits-chargedandx-credits-remaining. New free endpoints: GET /v1/billing, GET /v1/billing/ledger and GET /v1/billing/plans. Nothing is blocked while metering runs in shadow mode; see Credits & billing. - New docs. Guides by task, a generated reference page for every endpoint, search (Cmd/Ctrl+K) and dark mode.
