Wolfram|Alpha integration feedback

This one is a bit odd. I wasn't expecting any "Kagi Knowledge" for units considering I'm searching for a video game, but not entirely uncommon. What is confusing though is that the knowledge result doesn't appear at all on Wolfram Alpha, which I only noticed because I was curious how this was interpreted as any form of numerical units.

When I search for Amazon with the Kagi region in Spain (ES - es), Wolfram Alpha shows me the Amazon River. This would be correct in English, but in Spanish, the Amazon River is pronounced "Amazonas," so no one searching for Amazon in the Spain region would expect to find the river, but rather the e-commerce site:

I have noticed that it has been fixed and the Wolfram Alpha reference to the Amazon River no longer appears when you search for Amazon in searches with the Spain region (ES - es):

But if you do the search directly from the Kagi homepage, it still appears:

With the Andorra region (Ad), when you search for Amazon, the reference to the Amazon River also appears, but in Andorra, the official language is Catalan and the Amazon River is called Amazones, so no one searching for Amazon would expect to find the river, but rather the Amazon commerce site.

When I search for Zara in any region in Kagi, the first time I perform the search, Wolfram Alpha shows me the city of Zadar in Croatia, which is incorrect since Zara is a clothing store. The only thing it has in common with Zadar is that the name is spelled similarly. It seems to be a temporary error because when you refresh the search, Wolfram Alpha no longer shows anything. It can be reproduced if you change the region and perform the search again; Wolfram Alpha always shows it in the first search in some regions, but when you refresh, it no longer appears:

And in the search preview it always appears:

I have a recent case: searching for "Berk-Jones statistic" gives Wolfram Alpha result: = -1.425 million people

I tried different queries like solve 2x^2 = pi^x+9 for x and calculate 2x^2 = pi^x+9 but it doesn't bring up the Wolfram|Alpha widget:

What am I doing wrong? I know I could use the bang !wolf 2x^2 = pi^x+9 to be redirected to wolframalpha.com but that defeats the purpose of the integration. How to ever steer Kagi Assistant into solving arbitrary equations using Wolfram if I can't even myself figure out how to trigger the widget reliably?

Mat00 I have the same issue, rarely see the result from the Wolfram integration

I've been getting pretty unnecessary WA quick answers when searching for products that start with a number (an easy example is computer parts). E.g.:

One thing that has been bugging me is that there is no input field.
I often search up cm to inches, or something similar when I want to figure out how long something is in inches.
The problem is just that I have to include the number of cm in the search. And if I want to adjust the number of cm I have to make a new search instead of just editing the number like you would do in any other search engine.

Edit: Apparantly google doesn't have input fields for length conversion like the example I gave.

Temanor I'd like this added too.

Tried searching for ‘Mother’s Day 2025’ on Kagi and got this:

I searched for the same in WolframAlpha and realised contextual information was stripped out in Kagi. I suggest adding what Wolfram Alpha did in their search as well, which is:

‘Assuming Mothering Sunday (United Kingdom) | Use Mother’s Dat (Mexico) or ‘more’ instead

from March 4 so might've been fixed

I would expect this to work:
Discriminant[x^2 + 2 (x + 7) - 19, x]

I suppose we're not getting rid of Wolfram Alpha when you've got Stephen Wolfram on Kagi's board of advisors, but gee whiz it's not really impressing anyone.

The fact that I searched "father's day Australia" and got America's father's day, and the logic wolfram uses to arrive that is pretty pathetic in this age of LLMs... why are we not just using Kagi's fastgpt for this stuff?

searching for the band Nine Inch Nails shows '9 inches = 4 nails' as a result

Searching "2025 gaming monitor" shows "= 10000 people":

Seems to be a funny case of typo handling:
