I am just using free tier right now but I think the privacy bit is a sweetener, the value with kagi so far for me is you can scope searches really well, add preferred sources, filtering. It's a bit like if you slapped a nice interface over all the google hacks that used to be possible. Lack of SEO junk is another sweetener. Yeah, a lot of this is technically possible without kagi but if kagi doesn't suck I'll pay to not have to deal with the extra cognative load of wrangling google or ddg into spitting out sensible results.
