I am genuinely curious how did Kagi arrive at this cost.

- ALittleLight 4y agoI saw that too. Seems pretty high. I also think their plan of hoping future users search less on average is probably bad. I would want users to use my product more and I definitely wouldn't want to have an incentive to make users use it less. If the company is basically default dead unless usage drops... That seems really bad. If I were them I would be focusing on: How do we get to 8k searches for a dollar?
- leobg 4y agoI’m guessing they’re running NLP inference on some GPU server that costs X per day and can process Y pages. I would guess that it’s the indexing that incurs the most of the costs, not the actual queries performed by the users - though I could be wrong.
