Just started getting this now. Hopefully it’s some A/B testing that they’ll stop doing, but I’m not holding my breath

      I get a notification every month telling me that they will charge me for my monthly Kagi subscription and every single month i feel the same:

      ‘Totally worth it!’

        I feel like their pricing would make more sense if you could just pay for your usage, rather than forcing a subscription

          They do have different tiers depending on your search volume and features, so in a way they already have this. I’d hate to have to go through checkout every time i did a search.

            Why do you think you have to go through a checkout?

            They could just pool your owed money and then charge you that at the end of the month, or let you maintain a pool that you throw money into that they take from as you use it.

              They have 100, 300, and unlimited for $0, $5, and $10

              How much would you be willing to pay per search? And do you know how many searches you make every month?

              For me, i pay not for the searches as such, but to not be tracked and be shown more ads than search results
