• https://langchain.readthedocs.io/en/latest/modules/utils/examples/google_serper.html
• https://langchain.readthedocs.io/en/latest/modules/utils/examples/searx_search.html
• https://langchain.readthedocs.io/en/latest/modules/utils/examples/serpapi.html

for Google Search?

For the two Google searches, It looks like Serper is made for API access so should be easier to use and less expensive.

From what I understand, you were asking for clarification on the differences between the different search APIs provided in the langchain library for Google Search. gwc4github suggested using Serper for API access as it is easier to use and less expensive. They also provided a link to an example on how to use the search tools.
