# Web search MCP servers

MCP servers that give an agent web search results, from general search engines to news and research indexes.

## Before you choose

Many search servers are remote and free to try without a key (R0), with paid plans behind an API key for higher volume.

Results differ in freshness, sources and whether they return full page text or only snippets; the tool descriptions say which.
