Roadmap
Where SerpentAPI is headed
Search is live today. Next: general page scraping, commerce, and news — then an agent chat interface for driving those workflows conversationally.

Shipping
Eight SERP engines — shipping today.
SERP search foundation
LiveReal-time search across Google, Bing, Yahoo, DuckDuckGo, Yandex, Baidu, Brave, and Naver — structured organic JSON through one API.
This is the core Serpent API product today: multi-engine SERP coverage, usage-based plans, and a public status page. Everything else on the roadmap builds on this layer.
- Bing
- Yahoo
- DuckDuckGo
- Yandex
- Baidu
- Brave
- Naver
Next
On deck
General page scraping, commerce, and news surfaces.
General web scraping
PlannedOn-demand page extraction for arbitrary URLs — JS rendering, selectors, and the same API key as SERP search.
Not available yet. When it ships, you’ll discover URLs with search and pull full page content through a secondary scrape endpoint — same billing, without maintaining your own browser farm.
- Arbitrary URLs
- JS rendering
- CSS selectors
- Same API key
Shopping & commerce APIs
PlannedProgrammatic access to product listings, pricing, and shop data from major retail and social commerce platforms.
Expand beyond classic search engines into structured commerce surfaces — starting with TikTok Shop, Walmart, and Target, then other high-demand shopping sites where reliable extraction is feasible.
- TikTok Shop
- Walmart
- Target
- Other retailers
News platform APIs
ExploringStructured news access where platforms expose APIs, feeds, or consistently parseable article surfaces.
Add news as a first-class data vertical: headlines, article metadata, and source-aware queries — only where access is available and sustainable, not fragile one-off scrapes.
- Publisher APIs
- Structured feeds
- Article metadata
Later
On the horizon
Agent-native interfaces on top of Serpent infrastructure.
AI chat interface
PlannedA Browserbase-style agent chat UI for driving browser and data workflows through conversation.
An interactive chat layer on Serpent infrastructure — natural-language sessions that orchestrate search and future scrape/commerce/news endpoints, aimed at builders who want agent UX without wiring every call by hand.
- Agent sessions
- Browser workflows
- Tool orchestration
