Today, we’re thrilled to update you on some of the newest enhancements and give you a sneak peek into what’s coming next.

​DuckDuckGo Light API​

Tested using the Regular Speed plan
The ​DuckDuckGo Light API​ returns a streamlined version of the DuckDuckGo API search with faster response times. It includes:

  • Organic Results - The organic_results array returns items with position, title, link, displayed_link, snippet, snippet_highlighted_words, date, and favicon.
  • Knowledge Graph - The knowledge_graph object provides title, description, source (name, link), and thumbnail.
  • Ads - The ads array returns sponsored results with position, title, link, tracking_link, displayed_link, snippet, and favicon.
  • Pagination - Use next_page_token for retrieving subsequent pages of results.

Key types and response structure are intentionally kept identical to the DuckDuckGo API, making migration straightforward.

​TripAdvisor API​

The ​TripAdvisor API​ returns structured travel data across destinations, attractions, airlines, restaurants, and community forums. It includes:

  • Place Results - The place_results array returns destinations, attractions, airlines, and restaurants with position, place_id, title, type, link, description, rating, reviews, mentions, review_snippet, location (when available), and thumbnail images.
  • Destination & Attraction Data - Destinations and attractions include descriptions, location metadata, ratings, review counts, and preview images.
  • Airlines & Restaurants - Airline and restaurant results include descriptions, ratings, total reviews, highlighted review snippets, and high-resolution thumbnails.
  • Forum Results - The forum_results array returns TripAdvisor forum discussions with forum_id, title, link, snippet, highlighted words, author details, ISO timestamps, and location.

​Google About This Domain API​

The ​Google About This Domain API​ returns structured background information about the domain. It includes:

  • About This Result - The about_this_result object provides the site title, canonical link, displayed_link, and favicon as shown in Google Search.
  • Knowledge Graph - The knowledge_graph object returns entity-level information such as title, subtitle, description, founding date, headquarters, CEO details, and authoritative sources (e.g. Wikipedia).
  • Official Profiles - The profiles array lists verified social profiles (Facebook, Twitter, etc.) with direct links and icons.
  • In Their Own Words - The in_their_own_words object includes an official description snippet from the company’s own website, along with a direct source link.
  • Web Results - The web_results array surfaces third-party coverage from trusted sources (e.g. Investopedia, NerdWallet, Trustpilot), including titles, snippets, publication dates, ratings, and review counts when available.
  • Site History - The site_first_indexed_by_google object indicates how long the site has been indexed by Google, with a link to historical snapshots on the Internet Archive.

​Google Local API​

The ​Google Local API ​returns structured local business results from Google’s local pack. It includes:

  • Local Results - The local_results array provides position, title, ludocid, rating, reviews, price, comment, service_options, extensions, and image.
  • Ads Results - The ads_results array returns sponsored local listings with the same structure as local results.
  • Multiple Layouts - Supports desktop, mobile, hotel, and photo result layouts with consistent field structure.
  • Location Targeting - Use location or uule parameters for precise geographic targeting.

​Google Product Page API​

The ​Google Product Page API​ returns detailed product information from Google Shopping product pages. It includes the same information as in the Google Product API:

  • Product Data - The product object provides product_id, title, link, rating, reviews, description, variations, reviews_histogram, and images.
  • Offers - The offers array returns seller listings with price, extracted_price, link, merchant (name, link, rating), and delivery information.
