Both are neck-and-neck — ScreenURL and SearchApi each measure 0.0% uptime over 90 days on our probe schedule. Reliability here is verified from our own scheduled checks; use the 30-day bars above to see which has been steadier lately.

Do ScreenURL and SearchApi need an API key?

Both ask you to authenticate — ScreenURL uses an API key and SearchApi uses an API key. Each key is free to obtain; the Auth and Card-required rows above spell out the signup terms.

Can I call ScreenURL and SearchApi from the browser?

Neither sends browser-friendly CORS headers reliably, so call ScreenURL and SearchApi from a server or proxy rather than client-side. The CORS and HTTPS rows above show exactly what we detected for each.

Are ScreenURL and SearchApi free for commercial use?

ScreenURL has unclear commercial terms, and SearchApi has unclear commercial terms. We track service terms and the data license as separate fields — see the Commercial use and Data license rows above, and confirm both before shipping either in a paid product.
