Qwant is a European privacy search engine. FreeSerp is a free, keyless web search API for AI agents — a drop-in alternative you can call with no key, no signup and no per-request bill.
Point your agent at FreeSerp’s JSON endpoint or its MCP connector and it searches 20M+ live sites in real time, getting back ranked results with LLM summaries — the same shape you would wire Qwant into, minus the account and the invoice.
When does Qwant still win? When you specifically need EU privacy search. Reach for FreeSerp when you want free, agent-native web search without a key — for retrieval, grounding, monitoring or tool-calls where cost-per-request and signup are the real blockers.
