Endpoint


GET https://api.search.brave.com/res/v1/spellcheck/search

Authentication: X-Subscription-Token: <API_KEY> header

Parameters

Parameter	Type	Required	Default	Description
`q`	string	Yes	—	Query to spell check (1-400 chars, max 50 words)
`lang`	string	No	`en`	Language preference (2+ char language code, e.g. `en`, `fr`, `de`, `pt-br`, `zh-hans`). 51 codes supported
`country`	string	No	`US`	Search country (2-letter country code or `ALL`)

Response Fields

Field	Type	Description
`type`	string	Always `"spellcheck"`
`query.original`	string	The input query as submitted
`results`	array	Spell-corrected suggestions. May be empty when no correction is found
`results[].query`	string	A corrected version of the query

Example Response


{
  "type": "spellcheck",
  "query": {
    "original": "artifical inteligence"
  },
  "results": [
    {
      "query": "artificial intelligence"
    }
  ]
}

Use Cases

Pre-search query cleanup: Check spelling before deciding which search endpoint to call
"Did you mean?" UI: Show users a corrected suggestion before running the search

Notes

Built-in alternative: Web Search and LLM Context have spellcheck=true by default — use this standalone endpoint only when you need the correction before searching
Context-aware: Corrections consider the full query context, not just individual words
