I just tried it out and it looks great. Do you have a subscription with them?

Agree and yes! I happily pay around 100€ annually. Comes with quite a few good perks

unlimited access to probably one of the best search engines (for search-engine-literate folk it's not necessarily that you'll magically find better websites, but the quantity of garbage-/AI-websites will just be heavily reduced and you won't have the problem that the first three or so links will be ads/sponsorships; it makes searching just feel nicer)
customisable search (for example, I can generally rank search results for pinterest lower or outright block them to not even have them show up in the first place and instead boost results from beehaw)
customisable and privacy-respecting AI bots only if you want to use them (from what I could find out, the AI bots always start every new conversation with a blank slate of you, no matter how much you've used Kagi or the LLMs before)
Kagi Small Web, which is an initiative to basically push the "alive internet theory" by highlighting small blogs and personal websites of a whole range of people
Kagi Universal Summariser, which is an AI summariser that works very well on just about any text you give it and, for the articles and papers I threw at it, doesn't tend to hallucinate stuff
