Google Search for AI Agents: A Relay MCP (cheaper than alternatives)

Google Search for AI Agents: A Relay MCP at $3 per 1K

Every AI agent needs web search. And every search API is expensive.

The problem: search APIs are pricey

Provider	Price per 1K
Google official Custom Search	$5 (and site-restricted)
Exa (semantic search)	$7
Tavily	$8-16
Brave	$5
GoAI Moat (Serper relay)	$3

We're not building a search engine. We relay a compliant full-web search API and pass the volume discount on to agents.

What we shipped

com.goaimoat/google-search  →  https://search.mcp.goaimoat.com/mcp

Two tools:

• google_search — organic web results (title, link, snippet)
• news_search — Google News (title, link, date, source)

Free 3 searches per email, then $3/1K via license.

Who it's for

Any agent that needs web search — SEO/GEO work, market research, competitor monitoring, content research — without paying $5-16 per 1K.
