We're the first web scraping company that focus on scraping search engines.

ClearSERP's answer:

ClearSERP stands apart because it doesn’t just show keyword metrics—it reveals why a keyword is actually rankable.
Most tools stop at difficulty and volume. ClearSERP goes further by analyzing the entire top 10 organic results for every keyword, detecting 17 distinct SERP weaknesses across authority, content, and technical factors.
It converts this data into a single Keyword Score (0–100), clearly showing which keywords offer the best ranking potential.

Unlike traditional keyword tools that rely on outdated or superficial data, ClearSERP provides real, evidence-based insights—you can see low-authority sites ranking, broken or outdated pages, and mismatched intent right in the interface.
Additional features like Domain Research, Competitor Research, and Keyword Gap Analysis create a complete ecosystem for uncovering ranking opportunities no other tool exposes.

SerpApi's answer

Back in 2017, Julien Khaleghy, the founder of SerpApi, built an iOS app that can analyze data from a picture. iOS didn't have a proper machine learning framework back then. It was challenging: iPhones' RAM were limited, no GPU or no dedicated chip acceleration were available, using only CPU was painfully slow, and compiling/porting C code from machine learning framework like Tensorflow or Caffe to iOS wasn't straightforward. Oddly, all of this wasn't the most difficult part of this project. Collecting images from Google Images was.

In these projects, 80% of his time ended up being spent on scraping and parsing Google Images. And maybe only 20% on actual machine learning model training, UI design of the actual apps, and iOS programming. This is how SerpApi was born.

ClearSERP's answer:

ClearSERP was born from frustration.
Its creator, Ian, used to run a keyword research agency where he manually inspected hundreds of SERPs to find low-competition opportunities.
That process took days—and there was no tool that could automate it accurately.

After Google’s updates made niche sites harder to grow, Ian spent four months building ClearSERP full-time to solve his own problem: automating the exact workflow he used to perform by hand.
The result is a platform that brings the same depth of manual research—but at machine speed and scale.

ClearSERP embodies one idea: you shouldn’t have to guess which keywords you can rank for—you should know.
