About
Kagi Assistant is the AI chat layer bundled into every Kagi search subscription, giving access to 30+ LLMs (Claude, GPT, Gemini, DeepSeek, Mistral, Llama and others) under one token-based allowance rather than a separate subscription.
In-Depth Review
Kagi Assistant is an AI-powered chat and research tool included with Kagi, a paid, ad-free search engine built around user privacy. Unlike free AI assistants, Kagi Assistant is available exclusively to paid Kagi subscribers and offers access to multiple AI models including Claude, GPT-4, and Gemini, switchable within the same interface. It integrates directly with Kagi Search results and can perform real-time web research, summarize documents, and assist with writing and analysis. Because Kagi has no advertising model, it does not track or sell user data, making it a premium alternative to ad-supported AI tools for privacy-conscious users.
