A paid search engine… 🤔

Many people would prefer a paid service over an ad supported one.

Many people would prefer that their search history isn’t associated to personal and payment information.

I generally agree with that, but as an aggregation service it would need to justify not providing any actual content/information with its price structure. The same argument against AI models trained with user data.

It still costs money for hardware and hosting. Scraping web and training AI ain’t cheap.

We’ve been conditioned. Everything has a cost.

I’d be curious to sign up if the paid version wasn’t search capped.

I search a lot of random stuff or typo etc I feel like I’d burn through the allowance in 2 weeks

People expect a free thing to always have your best interests at heart.

Kagi makes sense to me. I pay for a product.

(just as a random side note, lenses alone would make it worth it)
