Being using it through the beta and moved toward their annual subscription :)

Also you can give more importance to some website in the search result, create your own search template.

It's so feature rich, and to make things easier they provide and extension to set your default search engine for you.

I was considering subscribing to Kagi but $10/month is almost as expensive as my fiber broadband connection and I don't think I can justify this expense. I would likely subscribe if it was $5/month.

I thought the same at first. Then I thought on an annual budget and price.

Does Kagi worth $120 per year for me ? Yes, yes it does, it's barely nothing compared to the value of having proper search result. I checked ... I make more than 50 searches per day...

$120 yearly is nothing compared to other expenses that I have like my broadband internet around $70 per month for it...

My thought process was like that: i do 50 searches per day, i lose on average 3 seconds per search filtering ads, pinterest,quota,geekforgeek,etc. results. This means 150 second or 3 minutes a day. Which means 1.5 hours a month. My hourly rate is about $70 USD, so paying $10 to give me back $100 of my time seemed like a good deal.
