The Assistant is here!
Today we’re excited to unveil the Assistant, a new powerful tool for information consumption that complements Kagi Search. Assistant features direct access to world's best LLMs, grounded in Kagi Search, all in one place and for one price.
Read all about it in Announcing the Assistant blog post.
This update replaces the Beta version introduced nearly a year ago. It includes many new features, and we are working hard to bring back a few missing ones from the Beta, notably file upload, as soon as possible. You can still access the "old" assistant during the transition period using this link.
We also want to take this opportunity to extend a big thank you to our community, especially to our distinguished members and contributors, for all the feedback and testing that helped us create a better product.
Growing the Kagi community
We recently expanded our social presence on the wider web to include Mastodon, Blue Sky and Threads, so be sure to engage with us and follow our journey from the platforms of your choice!
