Captcha Friction	🛡️ Zero Captchas or IP blocks	Frequent Cloudflare / Google 429 blocks	High blocking frequency
Knowledge Graph	✅ Direct entity definition & related topics	Unstructured SERP DOM parsing	Fragile CSS selectors
Pricing	💰 $1.00 / 1,000 queries (PPR)	$3.00–$5.00 / 1k queries	High compute RAM bills
