I built this project mostly for myself, because I like having a lightning-fast, concise daily overview of the news flood.
The newsletter itself is fully dynamic, depending on how you set up the page.
The project is still in development, and I’m working on fine-tuning the data and the presentation.
I’m happy to hear your wishes and feedback!
For me Kagi is the 2010-2015 Google Search experience. It just... works.
I basically pay only to have that. The rest are lots of niceties on top that I can pick if I want them or need them.
It respects your keywords, if it edits anything of the query it tells you why and how, and I think I can count on one hand the number of times I had to scroll to hit the "More results" button since I started using it.
Before I tried Kagi (I tried it out when it was invite-only for testing and then converted to paying user) Google was basically frustrating me with every single query. I had to scroll past the ads, ignore the stuff that looked like websites, ignore the first 5 results because they were useless, ignore the "other results from X" because nothing of value was ever found, then go to the second page, and still find maybe 1 result that was applicable to my query.
Kagi felt like a breath of fresh air. I have a few Googler friends that tried it out on my recommendation and prefer it and pay for it over Google Search, I think that speaks for itself.
TLDR: I find the information I want much faster and much more frequently.
Ad supported search is not incentivized to find you information as fast as possible; the goal is for you to click on ads.
I hate paying for anything. I am cheap as hell, but it saves me enough time that I can justify it. I felt google search was getting worse while I feel Kagi search gets better. Plus I can customize Kagi to ban entire websites or show websites, such as this one, more often.
I am not sure what the user experience of your setup is but with Kagi I can tell it to summarize like 8 sites and quickly read through all of them on the page.
Also, I didn't know how to use AI well with search prior to Kagi; the ease of use really helped me maximize its use.
My home is ad-blocked up the wazoo. I love signal and hate noise. Kagi gives me that.
