Estimate your monthly cost

PrismCrawl

$5.00

First-use estimate after 25 signup credits: 1 × $5 Micro package at $0.30/1K.

SerpAPI

$150.00

Smallest listed monthly plan covering volume; over 30K requires enterprise pricing.

DataForSEO Live

$50.00

Base usage is $20.00 for 10 results/request. After the $1.00 signup credit, paid account funding has a $50.00 minimum payment; unused balance remains.

Bright Data PAYG

$15.00

PAYG headline applied to all requests; free tier and PAYG are shown as separate offers.

Estimates use public list prices audited August 31, 2026 and are not quotes. They exclude taxes, negotiated discounts, retries, add-ons, result-depth multipliers, and failed-request policies except where stated. PrismCrawl's 25credits and DataForSEO's $1.00 credit are one-time new-account allowances, not recurring monthly free tiers. The PrismCrawl estimate compares repeated purchases within each tier but does not mix package sizes; credits expire after 90 days. DataForSEO paid funding has a $50.00 minimum; its displayed amount is the funding needed after the trial credit, not pure usage consumed when part of the deposit remains. Always verify provider pricing before purchasing.

Compare more than the headline rate

Cost per request is only one input. Compare result depth, feature coverage, location controls, minimum spend, concurrency, retries, failure billing, and engineering migration. See the PrismCrawl SERP API pricing overview and provider-specific comparison pages.
