Source code will be made available to customers who have been paying for at least 12 months. You will have to sign a non-disclosure agreement (NDA) with a non-compete clause (NCC) to access the source code. You will be able to self-host and use it for yourself and your family (personal use), but not distribute it or use it for commercial purposes, without our permission.

Pretty wild business model. Though I'm happy about another search engine where you pay with money instead of attention.

Search personalization

Tune results to you: exclude or boost domains. No assistants, news, or summaries. You can search with JavaScript disabled. What Kagi was, originally.

Nice. Up/down ranks are one of my favorite features. I also like that they flag domains with lots of ads and also domains suspected of being AI slop.

I definitely want a Kagi alternative! I need to check this out.

Not loving that name though.
