I’ve been using it for a year now and it is giving absolutely phenomenal search results right now.

For those that don’t know what it is, it’s a paid search engine - $54 per year for 300 searches a month. You get what you pay for, that’s for sure. They used to have a free tier, but I think you can still search for free a couple of times to try it out.

    300 searches/month feels tight for my use case. How do you manage? Are you using something else for search?

    I’m using DDG and I’m ok with it, every one out two time a month I check Google results for some topic, and DDG seems to do well.

      After using the trial for a month and reaching the limit, i decided to pay for the $108/yr unlimited searches.

      Kagi did statistical analysis before assigning pricing (it was a long process that they would update us on while they gave us leniency on the quotas). They found that 300 per month was the sweet spot for a lot of regular people that might only search a few times a week or others that might only occasionally do deep dives.

      edit: fixed an error, but also adding: no, i exclusively use kagi now on all my devices. give it a test run, it is dramatically different from ddg and googhell
