How we tested

On 3 November 2026, we sent 8 providers the same list of 20 searches. Each plan's Overall score adds five parts at their weights, scaled to 100. Price and Accuracy weigh 40 each, and Cost to get started, Bundle and Performance weigh 10 each. We score 7 of the 8 providers and rank them by their top plan's Overall score.

The Accuracy score on Google Shopping search APIs

This score, out of 100, shows how much of Google Shopping's results a provider's call returns. We send each provider the words of a search, as a buyer types them on Google Shopping. We ask for the results in the United States, in English. We have no copy of Google Shopping's page to check an answer against, so we compare the providers' answers. For each search, we count the parts the answer held, such as the products and each product's price. For the products, we divide the provider's product count by the number of products most providers returned for the search. We count each provider's products from the top, up to the number most providers returned. Each product has details, such as the price. We count the share of the provider's products that have the detail. We skip a detail on a search when no provider's products have that detail. We average the results over all searches. Every search counts the same. A search where the call returned no product counts as 0. We compare a provider that ran on fewer searches with the other providers on those same searches. A provider can't score higher by running only on easy searches. We lower the score when we test the call on fewer searches than the benchmark has.
