Kagi Changelog (July 2): Heads, tails, and an AI toggle

# Changelog - Kagi Search Source: [https://kagi.com/changelog](https://kagi.com/changelog) ## July 2nd, 2026 \- Heads, tails, and an AI toggle[\#](https://kagi.com/changelog#10959) ## Kagi Search ### New controls to completely turn off AI\-based features in search We've added an option to disable access to AI features in search, under[settings/ai](https://kagi.com/settings/ai)\.  We're also planning to add this option to onboarding, so new users can personalise their Kagi experience from the start\. It's finally here\! We believe that Kagi's application of AI should always be*useful*\- there when you'd like it, and never when you don't, and always respecting your privacy\. This took us some time to navigate the right way to communicate this option\. We did not want to create a confusing narrative as a company adding a toggle while continuing to invest in AI features elsewhere in our portfolio\. But in the end, we want to stay true to putting you in control of*your*search engine \- so here you are\! We deeply thank the community for their feedback and patience\. ### Flip coins and more sports widgets By popular demand, our dice widget has gained the ability to roll dice with any number of sides\. We're not sure what kind of games you're playing that need d7s, but we support them now\. We also added support for flipping coins, which are really just two\-sided dice when you think about it:  We've added a set of switches on[https://kagi\.com/settings/more\_search](https://kagi.com/settings/more_search)so you can disable any of our widgets you don't want to see\. The toggle descriptions include links illustrating the widgets' capabilities so you understand what you're turning on or off; go check it out\!  ## Orion browser ✴︎ This week, we’re launching[Orion 1\.1 for macOS](https://orionbrowser.com/platforms/macos), one of the most significant updates in our history\. This version is built around three major new features \(in addition to 170\+ smaller improvements and bug fixes\)\. **A New Interface ✴︎** When Apple released*LiquidGlass*, the reception was mixed—even within our own team\. The demand was there, but we weren't ready to just copy\-paste what Safari had done\. They had even removed compact tabs\! So, we created our own implementation\. **Containers ✴︎** Just like Firefox, we now offer containers\. What are they? Each tab becomes completely isolated from the others: total privacy and the ability to log into multiple accounts on the same site from the very same window\!  **A Personalized Browser Border ✴︎** The current trend is an elegant, transparent border seen on many browsers\. The problem is, they don't match Apple's design language\. So, what did we do? As we usually do: we made it an option\! And we took it even further: transparency, solid colors, gradients, and even an automatic color\-match with the website for total immersion\. *This option is exclusively available to Orion\+ subscribers\.* **Orion\+** Orion is your free browser, but we offer a[support plan](https://kagi.com/onboarding?p=orion_plan)to maintain the independence that guarantees your data is not, and will never be, sold to advertisers—or worse\. We have a dedicated website where you can download all the versions we currently support, as well as any we may support in the future \(macOS, iOS, iPadOS, Windows, and Linux\):[https://orionbrowser\.com](https://orionbrowser.com/) ## Kagi News & Kagi Translate [Kagi News](https://news.kagi.com/)and[Kagi Translate](https://translate.kagi.com/)have both been successes that took us by surprise\. Kagi News users from all over the world loved being able to read their news in the language of their choice, stress\-free, and even add new topics\. Kagi Translate users loved the contextual features that provide a spectacular translation quality — far beyond what typical machine translation offers\. But these unexpected successes led to a massive spike in our costs for applications offered for free\. As a result, we have temporarily removed translations and left access to the articles’ original languages as well as English\. Kagi Translate will be back in the coming days as a subscription\-based service\. Thank you for your patience and your trust 🙏 we hope to have everything up and running again very soon\! ## Other improvements and bug fixes ### Kagi Search - Missing/nonfunctional settings for Kid account[\#10803](https://kagifeedback.org/d/10803)[@Acratoseek](https://kagifeedback.org/u/Acratoseek) - Searching for "@import" \(with quotes\) breaks search[\#10866](https://kagifeedback.org/d/10866)[@RandallLeeds](https://kagifeedback.org/u/RandallLeeds) - Quick Answer followup question hangs[\#10257](https://kagifeedback.org/d/10257)[@MustafaD](https://kagifeedback.org/u/MustafaD) - Any search that begins with "what is" shows translation widget before results[\#10868](https://kagifeedback.org/d/10868)[@unknown](https://kagifeedback.org/u/unknown) - Missing/nonfunctional settings for Kid account[\#10803](https://kagifeedback.org/d/10803)[@Acratoseek](https://kagifeedback.org/u/Acratoseek) - Irrelevant trigger of translate widget[\#10865](https://kagifeedback.org/d/10865)[@dreifach](https://kagifeedback.org/u/dreifach) - Dice Rolling Widget fails with modifiers without space[\#10834](https://kagifeedback.org/d/10834)[@adammakesfilm](https://kagifeedback.org/u/adammakesfilm) - False trigger of events/sports widget[\#10908](https://kagifeedback.org/d/10908)[@dreifach](https://kagifeedback.org/u/dreifach) ### Kagi Assistant - Kimi k2\.6 retired in favour of k2\.6 Code?[\#10832](https://kagifeedback.org/d/10832)[@TimJay](https://kagifeedback.org/u/TimJay) - Allow customization of font size in Kagi Assistant[\#8863](https://kagifeedback.org/d/8863)[@the\_fork](https://kagifeedback.org/u/the_fork) - Kagi Assistant Code blank screen[\#10844](https://kagifeedback.org/d/10844)[@JacksonNunley](https://kagifeedback.org/u/JacksonNunley) - Summarization of MP3s fails[\#10804](https://kagifeedback.org/d/10804)[@YetAnotherUser](https://kagifeedback.org/u/YetAnotherUser) - The stop button in assistant often doesn't work[\#9938](https://kagifeedback.org/d/9938)[@fxgn](https://kagifeedback.org/u/fxgn) - Models specified in URL parameters are overridden by the Default Assistant setting[\#10084](https://kagifeedback.org/d/10084)[@ining](https://kagifeedback.org/u/ining) - Export to Markdown of large assistant thread omits first half[\#10858](https://kagifeedback.org/d/10858)[@jonassmedegaard](https://kagifeedback.org/u/jonassmedegaard) - Include menu option to "create new folder" when filing an assistant thread[\#10879](https://kagifeedback.org/d/10879)[@lolroger](https://kagifeedback.org/u/lolroger) - Even when the input box is expanded on Kagi assistant, the enter key submits the request[\#10851](https://kagifeedback.org/d/10851)[@gm](https://kagifeedback.org/u/gm) - Assistant v2 Ignoring Personalized Results[\#10864](https://kagifeedback.org/d/10864)[@Dustin](https://kagifeedback.org/u/Dustin) - Restore button for custom instructions for Assistants[\#9502](https://kagifeedback.org/d/9502)[@Felensis](https://kagifeedback.org/u/Felensis) - Kagi Research Assistant misreads table from website[\#10901](https://kagifeedback.org/d/10901)[@ionpac](https://kagifeedback.org/u/ionpac) ## June 16th, 2026 \- Search widgets catching up, Assistant starts fresh[\#](https://kagi.com/changelog#10830) ## Bringing search widgets up to speed We’re starting a broader effort to improve our search widgets\! First up: sports scores and dice rolling\. **Sports scores**now show up in a sidebar next to search results, so you can quickly check upcoming games, live scores, and recent results,[just in time for the World Cup](https://kagi.com/search?q=world+cup+games)\.  And we’ve also**added dice rolling support**for all you gamers out there, in case you ever need to roll[a d20](https://kagi.com/search?q=roll+d20),[2d4 \+ 2](https://kagi.com/search?q=roll+2d4%2B2), or perhaps even[8d6](https://kagi.com/search?q=i+cast+fireball)\.  ## The new Kagi Assistant is here Over the last few weeks, we’ve been rolling out a new Kagi Assistant experience\. Most of you are already using it, and today we’re officially retiring the old assistant\. This is more than a visual refresh, we rebuilt the Assistant experience around a new layout, smoother web and mobile use, and a lot of UX improvements that add up quickly\. And just as importantly, this gives us the foundation we need for the next set of Assistant improvements we’ve been working towards\. Note: there is one notable change \- folders have replaced tags\. This means each thread can now belong to only one folder\. We appreciate this is a downgrade for users who relied on multiple tags per thread, and we don’t want to handwave that away\. We made this tradeoff because folders give Assistant a simpler, more predictable organisation model, and because multi tag usage was relatively low: about 20% of active accounts used tags at all, and appx 4% had any thread with more than one tag\. Still, for those affected, we understand this change may be frustrating\. Thank you for bearing with us as we build towards a stronger Assistant experience\! ## Kagi Translate update We've paused free access to Kagi Translate while we sort out running costs, so you'll need to be signed in to use it\. If you have an active subscription, Translate still works\. Sign in on translate\.kagi\.com or in the mobile apps\. We share more details on this decision in this[blog post](https://blog.kagi.com/translate-update)\. ## Other improvements and bug fixes ### Kagi Search - Different output formats for Wolfram Alpha results[\#3183](https://kagifeedback.org/d/3183)[@mm00](https://kagifeedback.org/u/mm00) - Incorrect lens default[\#10796](https://kagifeedback.org/d/10796)[@maus986](https://kagifeedback.org/u/maus986) - Wikipedia widget shouldn't show disambiguation pages[\#10646](https://kagifeedback.org/d/10646)[@Numerlor](https://kagifeedback.org/u/Numerlor) - Chaining from one image to another in image search[\#10458](https://kagifeedback.org/d/10458)[@howtaobrowncow](https://kagifeedback.org/u/howtaobrowncow) - Unrelated Wikipedia widget results[\#10655](https://kagifeedback.org/d/10655)[@kpj](https://kagifeedback.org/u/kpj) - AI image filter fails on query "porcelain horse toilet"[\#10318](https://kagifeedback.org/d/10318)[@Recast](https://kagifeedback.org/u/Recast) - File\-only queries do not create corresponding title and subtitle[\#10130](https://kagifeedback.org/d/10130)[@dreifach](https://kagifeedback.org/u/dreifach) - Wikipedia LaTeX images doesn't render[\#10659](https://kagifeedback.org/d/10659)[@3top1a](https://kagifeedback.org/u/3top1a) - Lenses don't appear to support queries anymore[\#10419](https://kagifeedback.org/d/10419)[@arizvisa](https://kagifeedback.org/u/arizvisa) - Wildcard suffix domains don't work in lenses but do in a normal search[\#10438](https://kagifeedback.org/d/10438)[@decayingposture](https://kagifeedback.org/u/decayingposture) - Trailing wildcard on path\-prefixed domain breaks Lens results[\#10666](https://kagifeedback.org/d/10666)[@Dannn404](https://kagifeedback.org/u/Dannn404) - Quick answer references should link the entire trigger element[\#10781](https://kagifeedback.org/d/10781)[@mootari](https://kagifeedback.org/u/mootari) - Account 2FA UX broken[\#10760](https://kagifeedback.org/d/10760)[@gntlrm](https://kagifeedback.org/u/gntlrm) - Incorrect lens default[\#10796](https://kagifeedback.org/d/10796)[@maus986](https://kagifeedback.org/u/maus986) - Cloudflare 404 \- Kagi Turnstyle \(Vivaldi Browser\)[\#10809](https://kagifeedback.org/d/10809)[@NyraSyn](https://kagifeedback.org/u/NyraSyn) - Assistant threads were wrongly moved to Temporary[\#10100](https://kagifeedback.org/d/10100)[@eltaco](https://kagifeedback.org/u/eltaco) ### [Kagi APIs](https://kagi.com/api) - NEW: Extraction now keeps links from the original document, to enable deeper crawling flows\. - NEW: Related searches is now part of the API responses, with more metadata than the v0 version where applicable\. - NEW: Per\-key cost tracking is now enabled\.

Our[video about Kagi Small Web](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=af0OjIkt9dY)is resonating with members\. We talk about the purpose behind this initiative and why we're committed to growing it\. ## Dec 18th, 2025 \- Popular areas land in Kagi Maps[\#](https://kagi.com/changelog#9294) ## Kagi Maps We're continuously improving Kagi Maps, and with the latest release we've added a new data layer: Popular Areas\. It highlights the busiest and most frequented spots when you're exploring a new city\.  New Global Map Layer: - Highlights most popular areas where people congregate near Cafes/Restaurants/Shops/Cultural\-Centers POI Infoboxes have more 3rd party external links: - OpenStreetMap, Wikipedia, Google Maps, Apple Maps - Reviews on Yelp and TripAdvisor - Social media profiles \(Facebook, Instagram, Twitter\) - Reservations via OpenTable - easier\-to\-read opening hours with weekly schedules - Direct links to restaurant menus when available Strengthening ties to OpenStreetMap Community: - with ability to Report Map Issues to OpenStreetMap directly\. A new "Report an issue" option in Infobox connects you to OpenStreetMap's note system, where you can flag errors or suggest improvements to the underlying map data\. Additional Map Data: - POI data now preloads in the background for faster navigation when clicking markers or search results - Mobile\-optimized zoom controls for smoother touch interaction - Sorting preferences \(distance, rating, price\) now persist across sessions - Faster POI on click load\-times with use of shorterm caching - Middle\-click support on search results and sorting buttons Various ad\-hoc bug fixes and database improvements: - Improved caching system for POI data reducing redundant API calls - Better location cookie handling using`kagi\_precise\_location` - Various improvements to our POI\-matching algorithms - UI rendering fixes ## Kagi Search - Location management is now available in settings, where you can view and update your location at any time\. Kagi uses either a coarse location estimated from your IP address or, if you opt in, your device's precise location\. This is[stored only on your device as a cookie](https://kagi.com/privacy#Cookies-Client-data)\. It supports local\-intent searches \(e\.g\.

We are looking forward to welcoming you to Kagi's first ever Hub\! ## Nov 20th, 2025 \- Introducing Quick and Research assistants[\#](https://kagi.com/changelog#9008) ## Kagi Assistant ### Introducing Quick and Research assistants  Today, we are officially introducing Kagi Research assistants \(previously known as "KI"\)\.[Read our full announcement here](https://blog.kagi.com/kagi-assistants)\. Their main strength is research: identifying what to search for, executing multiple simultaneous searches \(in different languages, if needed\), and synthesizing the findings into high\-quality answers\. [Simply choose](https://kagi.com/assistant/)whether to prioritise speed or depth: - **Quick optimises for speed**, providing direct and concise answers\. - **Research focuses on depth and diversity**, conducting exhaustive analysis for thorough results\. Research is available to Ultimate subscribers only\.  To achieve this, they employ different base models for specific tasks\. We[continuously benchmark top\-performing models](https://help.kagi.com/kagi/ai/llm-benchmark.html)and select the best one for each job, so you don't have to\. And on top of web search, we’ve added new behavioural layers and a wider toolset, including Python execution and image generation for higher\-quality answers\. These capabilities go beyond what was already possible in Kagi Assistant using a base model with web search\. See our[documentation](https://help.kagi.com/kagi/ai/kagi-research.html)for the full details\. Finally, a huge thank you to everyone in our[Discord](https://kagi.com/discord)for beta testing this with us and providing tons of feedback along the way\! 🙏 Note: - With this change, we set the Quick assistant as the default mode in Kagi Assistant\. You can always adjust this in your[Assistant Settings](https://kagi.com/settings/assistant)\. - Additionally, we plan to migrate the`q`bang, currently used for Quick Answer, to trigger an Assistant thread targeting the Quick assistant\. ### LLMs are bullshitters\. But that doesn't mean they're not useful Yesterday, we published an opinion essay exploring the useful yet disruptive nature of LLMs\. Give it a read and let us know what you think[https://blog\.kagi\.com/llms](https://blog.kagi.com/llms) ### Colour code your Assistant tags Now you can assign icons and colours to your tags\. Spot important threads instantly\.  ### Other improvements and bug fixes - Retired a handful of models\.

Kagi’s ranking already downranks and filters much of it\. SlopStop gives you a simple mechanism to help us keep results even cleaner and more authentic\. **How it works:** 1. If you see low\-quality AI content in web, image or video results, click the shield icon next to the result to report it\. If something is flagged in error, use the same control to report the mistake\. 2. Check your reports statuses in[Settings\.](https://kagi.com/settings/slop_stop) 3. We verify reports alongside our own signals\. When a domain or channel is confirmed to primarily publish AI content, we deprioritise it in Kagi\.

Each thread can have multiple tags\. - You can use the`Temporary`tag to mark any thread as temporary, and it will auto\-delete 24h after its last update\. - If you use Kagi Assistant in 24h mode, all new threads will be tagged as`Temporary`by default\. When you remove the`Temporary`tag, that thread will be saved\. - When you create a thread while viewing a specific tag, the new thread will automatically inherit that tag\. - Threads without a custom tag, such as all your currently saved threads, appear in the**All**folder\. Learn more on our[help page](https://help.kagi.com/kagi/ai/assistant.html#tags)\. **Bulk managing threads** We've also made thread management easier: select multiple threads and either tag them or delete them permanently\. \[upl\-image\-preview url=[https://kagifeedback\.org/assets/files/2025\-07\-31/1753986178\-528658\-image\.png](https://kagifeedback.org/assets/files/2025-07-31/1753986178-528658-image.png)\] **Model picker** The model picker now features a curated set of base models that we believe deliver the strongest performance, helping you choose the best option for your specific task\. We continuously update this list using our own[in\-house benchmarking](https://help.kagi.com/kagi/ai/llm-benchmark.html)\.  **Define your default Assistant** You can now[define your default Kagi Assistant model](https://kagi.com/settings/assistant), as either one of your Custom Assistants, a base model or the last used model\. Every new thread you create will start with that default model\. **Removal of context windows limits** Kagi Assistant no longer enforces[context window limits](https://help.kagi.com/kagi/ai/assistant.html#context-window-limit)\. We include all available information, and if we reach the model’s maximum size, we carry forward relevant context so it remains available for your next instructions\. **Plus many other fixes and improvements** -

Instead of`$1`always being the first word and`$2`the second, you can now define exactly how your query is split to create more powerful shortcuts\. For example, to create a custom translator for a query like`\!tr spanish live long and prosper`, you can now separate the language from the text\. In your Custom Bang settings, you would use: - Template:`https://translate\.kagi\.com/?to=$1&text=$2` - Regex:`\(\\w\+\)\\s\+\(\.\*\)` This pattern tells the Bang to use the first word for`$1`and the entire rest of the query for`$2`\. If you leave the Regex field blank, your Bangs will continue to work as they always have\. We're excited to see what you build with this #### Other bug fixes and improvements - Site ranking radio buttons have no accessibility labels[\#7412](https://kagifeedback.org/d/7412)[@mehgcap](https://kagifeedback.org/u/mehgcap) -

We've already mentioned Doctorow once, but his post about Kagi – a no\-ads, no\-tracking search engine with a tiered payment model – from a year ago makes interesting reading\. The idea has gained traction with others, including Daring Fireball's John Gruber\. ### Kagi shout outs - Kagi is described as being best for "power users and professionals who want fast, curated, ad\-free results" in[a post](https://maplewebdesign.ca/blog/lesser-known-search-engines/#2_Kagi)by Maple Web Design\. - Alan Jacobs shares a concise[review](https://social.ayjay.org/2025/05/14/googles-search-results-have-become.html)of Kagi: > Google’s search results have become so bad that I recently subscribed to Kagi, and so far it’s been great\. - Have a site or blog and want to have an easier way to search through its archives?[This post](https://leancrew.com/all-this/2025/05/search-me/)outlines a good use of Lenses to make that easier\. > A Lens will focus Kagi’s search on one or more \(up to ten\) particular sites, date ranges, regions, keywords, or file types\. You can also exclude sites or subsites\. Kagi has several default Lenses, and you can add your own customized Lenses: - Kagi is used as an example for why it's important to[pay for what you love](https://invisibleparade.com/posts/pay-a-subscription), and how it helps align the incentives between the user and the service provider: > In order for Kagi to make more money, they have to make search quality better\. By adopting a subscription model, Kagi has fundamentally aligned the goal of the service with providing excellent search\. This is why a subscription\-based service is the most likely to keep its users satisfied over time, and why — if you care, and if you have the choice — you should choose to use a subscription\-based service over other offerings\. - Along those same lines, Liu Miao writes about how[paying for search](https://letters.liumiao.net/archive/paying-for-search-a-different-perspective-on/)offers a different perspective on using the internet: > Indeed, our generation grew up with the internet, and search engines have been free since their inception\. Why pay to use one? But looking at it from another angle, if search engines have been free for over twenty years, then who has been paying for me all this time? And noting specifically about Kagi: > I hope to see more products like this in the future—products that treat users as users rather than as products\. ### Industry News The latest developments in the tech and search industries that captured our attention and reinforces our mission:  - [Mark Zuckerberg’s AI ad tool sounds like a social media nightmare](https://techcrunch.com/2025/05/07/mark-zuckerbergs-ai-ad-tool-sounds-like-a-social-media-nightmare/) - [Google agrees to pay Texas $1\.4 billion data privacy settlement](https://www.cnbc.com/2025/05/09/google-texas-data-privacy-settlement-paxton.html) - [YouTube announces Gemini AI feature to target ads when viewers are most engaged](https://www.cnbc.com/2025/05/14/youtube-gemini-ai-feature-will-target-ads-when-viewers-most-engaged.html) - [Google is stuffing even more ads into its AI results](https://www.theverge.com/news/671514/google-ai-mode-overviews-ads-expansion) ### How search engines should feel In collaboration with artist[Chaz Hutton](https://chazhutton.com/), this illustration captures how using a search engine should feel: straightforward and focused, guiding you directly to what you’re looking for\.  ## May 6th, 2025 \- Video search upgrades, enhanced Kagi Assistant experience and more[\#](https://kagi.com/changelog#6912) ## Search ### Video search upgrade Video search now pulls from more sources and shows richer data: And other bug fixes and improvements, - Colour picker does not show correct colour on desktop with Zen Browser[\#7001](https://kagifeedback.org/d/7001)[@larke12](https://kagifeedback.org/u/larke12) - Kagi Search: Translate Button Accidental Taps on Mobile[\#6994](https://kagifeedback.org/d/6994)[@slanderous\-mambo](https://kagifeedback.org/u/slanderous-mambo) - Web search results broken in Safari[\#6773](https://kagifeedback.org/d/6773)[@Wildpixels](https://kagifeedback.org/u/Wildpixels) - 403 when privacy pass is active[\#6793](https://kagifeedback.org/d/6793)[@jlnslv](https://kagifeedback.org/u/jlnslv) - Missing special characters on search results[\#6876](https://kagifeedback.org/d/6876)[@NeilCarvalho](https://kagifeedback.org/u/NeilCarvalho) - Searching "people who know" incorrectly includes images of the pope[\#6965](https://kagifeedback.org/d/6965)[@mon](https://kagifeedback.org/u/mon) - Inconsistencies in Search Settings Descriptions : Period Usage and "Whether or Not"[\#6991](https://kagifeedback.org/d/6991)[@Hanbyeol](https://kagifeedback.org/u/Hanbyeol) - Raw href text appears in bang popup[\#7017](https://kagifeedback.org/d/7017)[@erakura](https://kagifeedback.org/u/erakura) - Shows likes and dislikes for videos[\#6998](https://kagifeedback.org/d/6998)[@holybaechu](https://kagifeedback.org/u/holybaechu) - Searching "people who know" incorrectly includes images of the pope[\#6965](https://kagifeedback.org/d/6965)[@mon](https://kagifeedback.org/u/mon) - Invalid token error on private window in Brave, Firefox[\#6906](https://kagifeedback.org/d/6906)[@private\-kagi](https://kagifeedback.org/u/private-kagi) ## Kagi Assistant This release packs important upgrades to make your experience smoother and more customisable: - **Adjustable sidebars**: on desktop, you can now resize both the primary and secondary sidebars to fit your workflow - **Mobile revamp**: we've upgraded the mobile experience for better usability and flow\.

Check our[announcement blog here](https://blog.kagi.com/assistant-for-all)\.  To use Assistant, head to[kagi\.com/assistant](https://kagi.com/assistant)\. ⚠️**Note:**We are enabling the Assistant for all plans in phases, based on regions starting with USA today\. The full rollout is scheduled to be completed by Sunday, 23:59 UTC\. With this release, we are beginning to enforce our**[fair use policy](https://kagi.com/privacy#Terms-of-use)**to ensure a sustainable, high\-quality service for everyone as we expand access\. Basically our policy states that you can use AI models based on your plan's value\. For example, a $25 monthly plan allows up to $25 worth of raw token cost across all models \(there is a 20% built\-in margin that we reserve for providing searches, development and infrastructure for the service\)\. This impacts only a very small percentage of users with extremely high usage patterns and is a simple way to control usage, compared to arbitrary usage limits\. Our goal is to ensure broad availability without users needing to worry about typical usage\. Affected users can currently renew their cycle instantly, with more flexible credit top\-ups planned soon\. We're very happy to offer Kagi Assistant as another optional tool to support your work and exploration online\.
