Serply
Google web, news and Scholar search from any AI agent via the Serply API. 3 tools, API-key auth.
Setup
This connector wraps the Serply REST API (api.serply.io), which returns Google search results as JSON.
Setup:
- Create an account at https://serply.io (2,500 free credits, no card required) and copy the API key from the dashboard.
- Set
SERPLY_API_KEY.
Authentication: the key is sent as the X-Api-Key header on every call, so it never appears in a logged URL.

Prerequisites: SERPLY_API_KEY

docker compose up -d
Open http://localhost:3000/connectors/store, pick Serply and paste in the env vars listed under Prerequisites.
