GCP is sort of blending this into their Gemini APIs.

https://ai.google.dev/gemini-api/docs/google-search

You don’t have to do RAG or use a serp scraper MCP, just add the Search Grounding tool to the APzi request and it does the rest at the model’s discretion and $0.014 / search.

I think that’s generally a fair price for my time vs doing my own search queries at 1/100th the speed. It could get expensive for deep research type queries.

The pricing may be reasonable, but Grounding with Google Search has extremely restrictive terms of use.

yup, I looked at it GwGS and it's not interesting. I want actual results, not a summary and some links to sites (not pages), then to go crawl those pages

Don't want Google as the middleman between the internet and my agent. Their search has become so bad I don't even use it any more
