Also got it. Good they see that the communication lacked a litte. As a previously paying customer it's nice to see that they see they made a mistake.
I understand it's a startup but everything is happening on a really short notice.
7 day notice for pricing update, few hours notice for a live on discord.
In the end I decided it's not worth it for me to count my searches. I don't want to think about it, think about plans. To me it's a clear indication that sticking to Bing API, that does such price hikes is not worth it but I don't see them having a good way forward without Bing.
I am one of these 200 mentioned, and this email did not convince me to resubscribe. Some major changes to the pricing plan would. Or honoring better grandfathering. If it's 200 people maybe you should reach out to the one by one.
- dhbanes 4y agoI replied to his original emails and he was smug, condescending, and unapologetic. He probably won’t have much luck reaching out to these people one by one. The whole thing is built on a competitor’s API. The business is not going to work, unfortunately. I liked the product though.
- pell 4y agoI like Kagi a lot. They add a lot of value on top of the Bing API. The results are cleaned up and for certain topics I find a lot more relevant links than I do on DDG, Google or Bing. But I do see a huge problem - as you said - as their business model only works out if people search _less_. That’s a difficult proposition and hard to navigate.
