The problem

Keyword tools guess what people type

The phrases Google suggests as you type are what people actually search. There is no documented API for them, so keyword tools estimate, or skip them.

What that costs youKeyword lists that miss what people type. Content briefs built on tool estimates. Research you cannot repeat.

FAQ

Common questions

One request that returns the suggestions Google shows as you type, for any seed, in any country and language. Ten phrases, in order, in 0.2 seconds.

Yes. Autocomplete is built from real queries, which is why keyword tools want it and why it changes over time.

Ten per seed, the same ten Google shows. Feed them back in as seeds to expand.

0.2 seconds. That is the median a customer sees, measured through crustapi.com on the day this page was built. It is the fastest thing we read.
