- 4dm1r4lg3n3r4l 1y agoI don't find it too much. For $10 I get a search engine better than all the others, I get access to many AI models via Kagi Assistant and Kagi Translate. While I understand different people find value in different things, dismissing Kagi generally as "too expensive" is ignorant IMO. I think it also depends what you use it for. I use both their search and their AI models for software development and it saves me precious time when looking for information - in a way it pays for itself.
- Vexowsky 1y agoI also used it for software engineering and personal use as well. I had two major issues with it: - it wasn't as snappy as google, but I kind of got used to it - I wasn't trusting it (if that makes sense) and was falling back !g to make sure everything was searched For $10, I expect to get a premium service, not a just good enough one. I have to admit that I liked the idea, feeling of privacy and the ability to tailor a search engine for my needs. Unfortunatelly I think that they are not where they need to be for the $10 pricing plan.
- BeetleB 1y agoI get by with the $5 plan. I don't use it at work, and it shows. I often curse during work that I can't exclude certain domains permanently from my Google search!
