Kagi Bangs are counted as searches

Peter

Using the browser bar, the following searches use two instead of one search credit:

!i kagi

!v kagi

Bangs and search suggestions (while typing) should never count as searches according to https://help.kagi.com/kagi/plans/plan-types.html#how-searches-are-counted.

A bit confused. Aren't you technically searching Kagi images and Kagi videos? I thought bangs not counting only apply to external sites, not for Kagi searches??

Yes, I'm searching Kagi images and Kagi videos, and they're listed as bangs on this website: https://help.kagi.com/kagi/features/bangs.html

You're right, the documentation is a bit confusing, as it states that "Bangs are shortcuts starting with exclamation points (!) that quickly take you to search results on other sites".

But it would be strange if the bang !w for a Wikipedia search would count as no search and !i for an image search as two searches (instead of one) as it does currently, at least for me.
