I am interested to see the results of this. I had Kagi but got rid of it due to the cost. The results were a little better overall, but asking Gemini or Bing gets me to the same place faster most of the time. If I have to search manually, independent of the search engine, I am going to have to open like 3-8 tabs to get my answer most of the time. The difference between having Kagi and not having it is a couple more mouse wheel scrolls and 2-3 more clicks most of the time.

For me using Kagi is also a way to help push sites that actually respect the user. My hope is that if it gains enough traction it will force some of these bigger sites to abandon some of their dark patterns. And in the meantime, I get a much better experience with no ads, and constant new features, which makes search feel new and interesting again.
Try out Perplexity. It’s so much better for me personally usually for such things.
