Reference example
Google Play apps competing with a given app on shared keywords. Pages with limit, offset and offset_token; use the token past the first pages. This family is the one to reach for by default: the google_ads endpoints in seo-keywords answer similar questions but return megabytes with no way to cap them, where this one takes a limit. Wrapped in DataForSEO’s envelope: data in tasks[0].result, outcome in tasks[0].status_code - a rejected request still returns HTTP 200. The Apple twin is post_dataforseo_labs_apple_app_competitors_live. For the keywords behind the overlap use post_dataforseo_labs_google_app_intersection_live.

Example

First time? Point any MCP client at https://mcp.aisa.one/mcp — Claude Code, Codex, Cursor, VS Code and the rest. Authorization is OAuth: the client opens a browser, you click Allow once, and there is no key to paste. The commands per client, and what each call costs, are on aisa.one/mcp.
