![]() Looking at the pricing page, the base subscription is $5 for 200 searches, and that seems like very little. Maybe big tech has ruined search engine pricing like it has so many other product cagtegories “Why would you pay X when you can get Google’s/Microsoft’s product Y for free?” It's nice that it uses WebKit, and can use Chrome and/or Firefox plugins. But it doesn't have a "killer feature," that makes it better than every other browser. It's hard to sell a browser when all your competition is free. But I like to buy apps from full time developers I like, to help them stick around. Orion+ plus really doesn't get you anything, other than being able to direct future features of the product. Hosted apps I get, because there's a recurring cost with hosting. I have a pretty hard rule not to subscribe to desktop or phone apps. If they charged me $10.00/month for Orion and unlimited Kagi Search, I MIGHT be able to get on-board with that. They have cheaper plans, but they limit the number of searches you do a month and charge you a per-search fee once you exceed that. But $25.00 a month for unlimited search is kinda steep. ![]() I don't mind paying for search, especially if it's private. The problem with that is that Kagi search costs $25.00 a month for unlimited searches. They say on their website they want to go with flat-fee pricing once Kagi Search takes off. ![]() The developers need to make money somehow. But if people don't subscribe to Orion+, the project will not continue. ![]()
