Kagi does not use their own indexes, aside from perhaps very small things.

They use both Bing and Google indexes. It is why the cost per search is relatively high.

This change will impact them and it's currently a discussion topic on their Discord as well.

Pretty sad. I just started using it a week ago and am still planning on not going back.

Brave Search is the only large usable independent search index that I am aware of. 92% of results come from its own index, with 10B pages indexed.
