Detection methods

IP Range Detection
SerpApi operates from identifiable datacenter infrastructure to query search engines. Centinel tracks known SerpApi IP ranges and correlates with search-result scraping patterns.
Behavioral Pattern
SerpApi requests follow search engine query patterns: systematic keyword-based requests, predictable pagination through search results, and absence of organic browsing behavior.
User Agent Analysis
SerpApi uses identifiable request signatures when scraping search engine results pages. Centinel tracks these patterns in its detection database.
