Fit and risk

Best for

  • AI agents needing free unlimited web search
  • Developers or researchers on a budget
  • Environments that rely on Google search results

Not for

  • Production environments requiring official API stability
  • Environments without Chrome/Edge/Chromium
  • Long-running services sensitive to DOM changes

Required permissions

  • Requires Python 3.10+ and Chrome/Edge/Chromium installed
  • Can launch and manage a local browser process
  • Optionally connects to an existing Chrome instance via CDP

Risks and side effects

  • Dependency on Google DOM structure, may break on updates
  • May trigger CAPTCHA, requiring manual priming
  • Unofficial and may be subject to Google restrictions

Troubleshooting

  1. If you hit CAPTCHA, consider using a persistent profile and solving it manually once.
  2. Ensure a browser is installed and path is correct.
  3. Set HEADLESS=0 to observe browser behavior.
  4. Try the undetected backend to bypass CAPTCHA.
