Share Kagi with the World 🌍
With this release, we’re excited to introduce changes that allows you to share all your searches and Assistant threads with everyone.
You can now easily share image, video, news, and podcast searches by
clicking the share icon.
Additionally, any Assistant threads you share will be publicly
accessible to others!
Video search, leveled up
We’ve refined our ranking system to bring you sharper, more relevant results. We think this sets a new standard — try it and let us know what you think.
Plus, you can now see detailed channel statistics such as subscriber
count, creation date, and total videos, right in your search results.
Pro tip: to avoid clickbait, you can customise your experience by
selecting a random screenshot as the thumbnail or modifying video titles
in your search settings.
Assistant
We’re working on exciting updates to the Assistant experience! The model picker is now located in the top menu bar, making it easier to select a model for your next action. Plus, we’ve added two new models for you to explore: Deepseek R1 and Deepseek v3, both using a privacy respecting provider (see our LLM privacy guide).

Kagi Translate
I don’t often search for videos but I did attempt it recently and it was already better YT did by itself. Perhaps that was mostly because it didn’t attempt to shove extremely irrelevant shorts down my throat though but that’s already feature enough tbh.
I guess they’re spending so much time on the share feature because it’s basically free marketing.
Unfortunately though it seems there’s a bug since this update where changing a search doesn’t actually apply it most of the time when you hit enter or click the button.
