#2One thing that'd be nice is if they saved your selection of temperature scales. Currently they always show Celsius by default, but let you switch to Fahrenheit if you dare. I know that preferring Fahrenheit makes me a reprobate, but is this a hill they want to die on? Are they being paid by Big Metric? I'm logged in, go ahead and save it to my profile.

#3Oh wow, these are legitimately all good improvements. Some are things I'd use, some are, I'm sure, going to appreciated by others, but what's pointedly not anywhere on this list (except cheekily in a few screenshots) is any sort of AI-powered nonsense. I know they mentioned a while back that they were working on some tooling of that sort, but boy am I happy that (in this release at least), they focused on features that genuinely improve and extend the search experience.
Happy to keep paying for this.

It's possible a form of AI (depending on your definition of the term) is powering some of these features, but it's used as an implementation detail, not a marketing term, which I appreciate.

I use Kagi exclusively. The results are just as bad as googles, but isn’t covered in spam. Given the sorry state of search quality in the SEO garbage world we live in, that’s high praise. I’m happy to spend the money every month.

The reverse image search is going to be super useful for me as Google recently ruined theirs in attempt to promote their Lens app.
Overall, while I'm still not sure whether Kagi is worth the money I'm paying, I keep doing it so that they can release improvements like this one. Their quick development speed is great to see.

#9Can never get into Kagi. You pay for privacy but if it’s ever sold your privacy will be retroactively taken and will be even more valuable since it will be known by the buyer that you pay.
Better off using a VPN and duck or Brave imho.
In any case these improvements do look very good. Public record search is cool. Lenses improvements look interesting as that seems the be the most unique feature.

I knew Kagi is paid but I didn't know they had a limit on how many searches you can perform, which is also rather low. But what I really didn't like is how dishonest they are. The lowest tier costs $5 and includes 200 searches per month. That is 6.66 per day! But they say "Includes enough searches for 99% of internet users" because "The average person searches Google three or four times per day". They know very well that someone for pays for Kagi (or even knows about Kagi) doesn't perform three or four searches a day.
