SerpApi VS Zagl

SerpApi's answer

We provide more search engines under one subscription.

Zagl's answer:

More features, zero cost – Zagl includes click analytics, password protection, custom aliases, QR codes, and expiration dates in the free tier. Competitors like Bitly and TinyURL charge for these features.

Three tools in one – Why pay for separate URL shortener, pastebin, and landing page builder when Zagl offers all three? One dashboard, one account, one platform.

No forced signup – Create and share links immediately. Competitors require accounts before you can shorten a single URL.

Edit without limits – Change your destination URL anytime without breaking existing links. Some competitors lock editing behind paid plans or don't offer it at all.

No ads on free tier – Your links redirect cleanly without interstitial ads or splash pages. Many free URL shorteners insert ads before redirecting.

Global accessibility – Full interface in 15 languages. Most competitors only support English.

Transparent pricing – Free means free. No surprise limits, no hidden paywalls, no bait-and-switch tactics.

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.
