Kagi Search
Kagi Search is a subscription web search engine with no ads or tracking, customizable results, AI tools, and search APIs.
Kagi provides private web search with results that can be refined using lenses, bangs, search operators, region filters, and custom ranking rules. It also includes tools such as Quick Answer, page summarization, Kagi Assistant, and searches for images, news, videos, and podcasts.
Individuals, families, teams, researchers, developers, and privacy-conscious users can use Kagi through the web or Android app. A 100-search trial is available; paid plans start at $5 /mo. API access and some high-volume AI usage are billed separately.
