As an Ultimate user for a month now - what would I like to see in Ultimate?

  • An Ultimate Discord channel (maybe Ultimate Only?). (Not super important but would be cool).
  • Being "part of the team" is a great feeling - don't need "thanks" but maybe having more visibility of company direction, stats, merch, etc would be really cool.
  • AI Assistant - The ability to turn on citation of resources with easy links in chat mode.
  • AI Assistant - I would love to know a tally of my AI usage - just like the search counter.
  • AI Assistant - The option to buy more AI credits if I'm using too many instead of a hard cut off (sometimes I have the weekends to myself and spend hours researching) 😛.
  • The ability to turn on a Stats for Nerds option - access to more company stats, or my own behind the scenes stats (AI/Search/etc).

But most of all, I want Kagi to remain profitable and not go away. That's the biggest reason why I got Ultimate.

Thank you for reading,
-Happy Kagi Customer

    I'm far from reaching it, but maybe a higher limit for the user ranking list?

      Kagibeh I would always prefer a VPN service outside the Five, Nine, or Fourteen Eyes agreements.
      But something like Startpage's anonymous view would be great. I have used that from time to time.

        I desperately hope kagi adds a vision llm in chat mode.

          Vlad I am currently using it. It worked, but would be more efficient to polish it a bit more? for example, the vision llm should allow prompt and picture to be uploaded at the same time. I always need to wait for the research assistant to output something I probably don't want before I type in additional prompt. And there is no way to add a picture&document in the middle of a research. The previous conversion will reset once a pic is uploaded.

          So for Ultimate plan features, probably adding a working MLLM would be the best? No need for choosing, no need for a lot of conversion, just one place for a whole research project (and that's why storing previous conversation is quite crucial).

          In my personal opinion it would be best to enable ultimate plan user to have several custom assistant too. Currently only one is included?

              oxlvlnle +1 for prompt at the same time as the upload. I'm using it for creating alt texts, so I'm not really interested in the default output.

                  Vlad unstickied the discussion .

                    oxlvlnle It is, but the reason why I pay for Unlimited is so that I'm not a financial hit to Kagi, I want them to benefit. So if I have an especially heavy research weekend and some extra cash, I'd love a way to throw it Kagi's way. 😛

                        Text to speech - ultimate could have the ability to play an audio of the printed text. There is an OpenAI API that does a good job, and since it costs money, it would make sense to include it with Ultimate only: https://platform.openai.com/docs/guides/text-to-speech

                        User could have the option to choose the voice and ability to download the recording as mp3/aac.

                        There are 2 models, regular TTS (costs $15/million characters) and TTS-HD ($30/million characters). I think the regular is pretty sufficient.

                          silvenga I like this idea. Or at least some way to explicitly indicate that Ultimate users get some preference in terms of helping to set Kagi priorities/roadmap.

                              frin Being able to “talk” to Kagi, especially the fast/expert mode with follow-up questions would be a cool ultimate plan feature.

                                  Maybe a niche usecase, but I've always wanted to use search/assistant from the command line.
                                  I'm a (n)vim user and dislike having to switch to the browser to search or use assistant.

                                  I realize that the api limitations are in place to prevent abuse and overuse, which is probably the biggest challenge in exposing this to a cli tool, so I would be perfectly ok with having a lot of throttling restrictions on this as the operations I want to do would be 100% the same as I do on the web, I just want to stay in nvim.

                                    Elifino I currently use Shell GPT: https://github.com/TheR1D/shell_gpt

                                    it connects to openai but once an assistant api is available, you could use that as well instead of openai.

                                    I use it a lot but mainly so it generates commands for me. for example I can
                                    sgpt -s "extract all even pages from document.pdf and put them in a new folder 'newfolder'"
                                    (-s means shell command)
                                    and it'll give me the command and ask if i want to run the command
