Scavio for Open Web Search API as CSE Replacement

The Problem

Google is deprecating web-wide CSE queries. Applications and LLM integrations that depend on CSE for open web search will break. CSE also lacks modern SERP features like AI Overviews.

How Scavio Helps

• Drop-in replacement for CSE web search queries
• Structured AI Overview and Knowledge Graph extraction
• No domain restriction requirement
• MCP server for direct LLM integration
• 250 free queries/month covers migration testing

Quick Start: Python Example

Here is a quick example searching Google for "latest node.js LTS release 2026":

import requests

API_KEY = "your_scavio_api_key"

response = requests.post(
    "https://api.scavio.dev/api/v1/search",
    headers={
        "x-api-key": API_KEY,
        "Content-Type": "application/json",
    },
    json={"query": query},
)

data = response.json()
for result in data.get("organic_results", [])[:5]:
    print(f"{result['position']}. {result['title']}")
    print(f"   {result['link']}\n")
