I am pretty impressed with the new @kagi.com News app. It's no fluff, clean, relevant, and just like their translate tool, excellent at providing context and additional info.

Been a @kagi.com user for a good while now. Do check it out if you want a better search experience. But also all the other tools and APIs offered. Accentally noticed today I can request a given date in Kagi News to see what was happening that day. Nice! e.g. news.kagi.com/germany/2025...

Screenshot of part of the Kagi News web page, showing a selected historical date and the top news stories for the Germany category on that day.

Man @kagihq’s small web option gives me StumbleUpon vibes in all the right ways. I’ve found some super random stuff but also equally some really cool stuff as well. https://kagi.com/smallweb

This feels like #oldschool #web surfing.

Thanks for spreading the word on this feature, Justin! Undersold and as such under-utilized / under-appreciated for sure. We just did a video to amplify this a bit more, using one of your examples 😉

Kagi Snaps lets you easily limit search results to a specific website by using the @ symbol followed by a short code for the site and then your search query.

It's is genuinely insane that the same keywords typed into Kagi when looking for a YouTube video *just work* when YouTube's search itself will serve me complete garbage lol

Here's how Kagi News was described in The Verge. Have you tried it yet?

blog.kagi.com/kagi-news

A smartphone screen displays the Kagi News app with the heading “Daily Press Summary.” Below it, there’s a testimonial card featuring David Pierce from The Verge, saying “Simple, straightforward, super useful.” The date shown is October 5, 2025.

@kagi.com URL rewriting rules are wildly undersold.
This is perhaps the most useful feature from this search engine for privacy-conscious folks.
I can cut out centralized social media simply by rewriting search result URLs.

We just hit 1M+ daily queries on Kagi!

It might be a drop in the bucket by comparison, but with Kagi, each search is intentional, user-funded, free from ads and surveillance, and designed to serve you.

Thank you to our community. Here’s to many more milestones together.

Quality is a choice, and Kagi chooses to put users first.

I'm not against paying for software services. For instance, I now pay for @kagi.com, because Google has ruined its own search.

Tech Hive, is there a benefit for Kagi over DuckDuckGo?
