I suspect most of their subscription money went to google pocket. Google charges a lot of money to access their search api, about $5/1000 queries.

Kagi uses Google’s search engine?? I didn’t know that, I thought they’d created their own search engine. If Google blocks Searx, why don’t they block Kagi?

Kagi pays Google for API access. They also query other sources of data as well as their own index.
