am founder of Breeze, https://breezethat.com/

1. free version is curated topic filters that sit on top of Google -- best on laptop or desktop at moment / iterating mobile due to ad splash; it's unclear due to TOU that we can ever make that fully server-side legally, though do so have some things testing to see if free version can be ad-free or more tracking free

2. premium version will be mix of our scraping and Bing, depending on topic - standard web search via Bing + same curation as (1), closer to real-time for us

3. have tested out most other indie indexes or sites, for full web scale, money is on ahrefs or brave giving bing / google run for it

4. our primary emphasis is on bringing back some of the Yahoo! directory or Alta Vista look & feel of drilling into topics, so balancing 1-3 (^) as best we can atm, small team, fully bootstrapped modulo tiny F&F round

5. also @DotDotJames on twitter, still iterating when add team info to site
