Does this mean this is just a meta search engine without its own index?
If so, the comparison to Kagi seems misleading.
The question would turn from "why not Kagi" to "why not SearxNG".

Kagi is also a metasearch engine, as it combines several third-party indexes.

Good question! We also have Uruky Site Search, our own index, which is quite tiny at the moment, but we hope to grow, eventually. Kagi's own index is Teclis, which is one of their smaller providers as well.

Kagi is also a meta search engine. The only Kagi-owned index is Teclis, which is very small and really only indexes RSS feeds of small sites. The Kagi API supplements its Teclis results with additional results from Marginalia.
It would be nice to have more search indexes available though, especially via APIs.
I wish Kagi was a search index, back when I was a Kagi subscriber that's what I hoped my funds were going towards building.
