What is Semantic Kernel?
Microsoft's SDK for integrating LLMs into applications. Supports plugins, planners, and memory for building AI agents.
Searching Google Reviews with Semantic Kernel
This integration lets your Semantic Kernel agent search Google Reviews in real time via the Scavio API. The agent gets back structured JSON with review text, star rating, reviewer name, review date — ready for reasoning and decision-making.
Setup
pip install semantic-kernel requestsCode Example
Here is a complete Semantic Kernel agent that searches Google Reviews using Scavio:
import semantic_kernel as sk
from semantic_kernel.functions import kernel_function
import requests
import json
class ScavioPlugin:
@kernel_function(description="Search Google Reviews using Scavio")
def search(self, query: str) -> str:
response = requests.post(
"https://api.scavio.dev/api/v1/search",
headers={"x-api-key": "your_scavio_api_key", "Content-Type": "application/json"},
json={"query": query},
)
return json.dumps(response.json())
kernel = sk.Kernel()
kernel.add_plugin(ScavioPlugin(), "scavio")Full Working Example
A production-ready example with error handling:
import semantic_kernel as sk
from semantic_kernel.functions import kernel_function
import requests
import json
class ScavioPlugin:
@kernel_function(description="Search Google Reviews using Scavio")
def search(self, query: str) -> str:
response = requests.post(
"https://api.scavio.dev/api/v1/search",
headers={"x-api-key": "your_scavio_api_key", "Content-Type": "application/json"},
json={"query": query},
)
return json.dumps(response.json())
kernel = sk.Kernel()
kernel.add_plugin(ScavioPlugin(), "scavio")
# Use the plugin
result = await kernel.invoke("scavio", "search", query="Blue Bottle Coffee San Francisco reviews")
print(result)Pricing
Scavio offers a free tier with 500 credits/month (1 credit per search). No credit card required. This is enough to build and test your Semantic Kernel integration. Paid plans start at $30/month for higher volumes.
