How this service works
Google Scholar search - returns academic papers with titles, authors, publication venues, years, citation counts, links, and snippets. Use as_ylo/as_yhi to filter by publication year range. Use for academic research, literature reviews, or citation analysis. Pagination billing: call the first page normally and save billing.requestId from the Orthogonal /v1/run response. For later page, offset, or cursor calls on the same logical search, pass parentRequestId with unchanged non-pagination parameters. Valid continuation calls still get their own request IDs and quoted price, but are charged 0. Changing filters starts a new billable request.
Output
Returns a list of academic papers matching the query, each including the paper title, author names, publication venue or journal, publication year, citation count, and typically a snippet or abstract excerpt.
Example use cases
Literature review on climate adaptation strategies
“Find me recent academic papers on climate change adaptation in agriculture from the last five years, and show me which ones are most cited so I know which researchers are leading this field.”
Verify scientific claims with peer-reviewed sources
“I need to fact-check a claim about CRISPR gene editing safety. Search Scholar for papers on CRISPR off-target effects and show me how many times the most influential papers have been cited.”
Discover emerging research by specific author
“Can you search for all papers published by Dr. Yann LeCun on deep learning and neural networks? I want to see the full list with publication dates and citation counts to understand the arc of his research.”

Endpoint
POSThttps://mpp.orthogonal.com/serper/scholar?utm_source=zero.xyzWhen to prefer
Use this endpoint when you need structured academic paper results from Google Scholar, including citation counts and author metadata — ideal for literature reviews, fact-checking with scholarly sources, or discovering influential research in a field. Prefer over general web search when peer-reviewed academic credibility and citation data are required.
Side effects
- Empty results for highly niche or misspelled queries
- Rate limiting or quota exhaustion returning error responses
- Ambiguous queries returning loosely related papers
- No citation data available for very recent or obscure papers
- Network timeout for slow upstream Google Scholar responses
