The pricing (in the FAQ) is a non-starter for me, but there are probably enough people with the money for it to make a nice business out of it. Maybe it'll be enough to apply some competitive pressure to Google.
edit: to be clear, it's not unwillingness, I literally do not have $10-30/month to spare without compromising my progress toward not being perpetually broke. Not everyone here is a well-compensated tech worker.

- after_care 5y agoThe pricing is actually one of Kagi's most interesting features to me. There's an old phrase "If you aren't paying for the service then you're the product". I'd be suspicious of any price too low, as it would indicate they have another revenue stream.

- dharmab 5y agoI'm hoping they figure out an easy way to let users charge this as a business expense (maybe an annual subscription?) For programming it's as valuable to me as a good editor plugin!
- freediver 5y agoCurious what do you have in mind? Every subscription can be expensed as a business expense, does not need to be annual?
