Kagi Search Changelog Feb 20, 2024 - Kagi Bangs go open-source, Kagi Sidekick concept plus numerous improvements and bug fixes

Announcements

• Kagi Bangs repository is now open source (thanks @Browsing6853 for suggesting this in #481). You can now refine the accuracy of existing bangs or introduce new ones for everyone to enjoy on Kagi Search. Your contributions will enhance the search experience for users worldwide.

• Fresh from Kagi Labs: We're shipping an alpha version of Kagi Sidekick, a search and "chat with content" solution for websites.

  Kagi Sidekick will offer instant site search results, and on-demand AI generated summaries, by tapping directly into the website's content. As a bonus, the website content will automatically (after opt-in) surface as a part of Kagi search index.

  You can see Sidekick live in action in Kagi's documentation.

  

  We'd love to hear your feedback, and how would you use it on your website. We will plan the launch based on incoming demand.

  Visit the Sidekick project landing page to learn more and register your interest for a beta invite. If you'd like to participate in building projects like this, Kagi Labs is hiring part-time contributors.
