I see! Thanks for the clarification. I just checked their prices. Looks like you get X searches for a specific price. Not appealing to me but I bet many people are fine with that. I rather prefer a little bit of ads at the top of my search results (which I could block with an adblocker anytime) but that is just my personal preference.

Correct. You can go lower and pay per search as well. And set a warning and hard stop limit.

I do a LOT of searching for work. So the 1000/month is plenty and use it on all devices.

They have features others don’t as well. Such as blocking certain domains from returning results. For example I filter out answers.Microsoft.com because that’s their question boards and it’s rare that anything useful is said there etc.

They also support custom bangs similar to ddg.

I find that I get better results for my job and faster with Kagi. So it’s worth the cost for me.
