# Search Google

With Relay.app's Google search automation, you can automate searching the web for a query. This step returns up to 10 Google search results in a list, including each result's title, URL, and snippet.

This costs a flat 5 AI credits per search.

**Tip:** Try adding an AI step after your search results to analyze the results for you. Here's an example from our gallery: [LinkedIn profile finder](https://www.relay.app/gallery/linkedin-profile-finder)

### Search Google FAQs

<details>

<summary>Why are my search results slightly different from typing this into Google?</summary>

There are a few things that differ between Relay.app's search step and a Google search in your browser that may lead to different results:

1. **Location:** Relay.app doesn't use your browser location when running a search step, so localized results may not appear.
2. **Sign-in:** Relay.app's search step gives public, signed-out search results. Personalized results shown to a signed-in account may not appear.
