They display ads at the top of your search results and that’s how they make money.

Kagi does not do that. In fact their search results give you statistics on links/returns about things like trackers etc. there aren’t ads in Kaji returns.

Sorry about that. I deleted my previous post because I thought it was an answer to another post. But you were faster with responding to it, haha. Yes, I understand their business model now. They want you to pay for a specific amount of searches. That's how they cover the costs.
