Pros & Cons

Kagi FastGPT

  • Genuinely useful building block for developers avoiding a custom multi-step RAG pipeline
  • Leverages Kagi’s ad-free search infrastructure as a grounded retrieval layer
  • Pre-paid credit system offers usage-based flexibility for developers
  • No fixed public pricing tiers — requires contacting Kagi directly for a custom quote
  • Separate product and billing from the consumer Kagi search subscription
  • Best suited to developers with API integration needs rather than individual searchers

Gemini

  • Deeply integrated across Google’s broader ecosystem (Search, Workspace, Android)
  • Ultra tier pricing was reduced from its original $250/month, improving accessibility
  • API pricing offers genuinely low-cost options (Flash-Lite at $0.10/million tokens) for cost-sensitive applications
  • Full Workspace integration requires at least Business Standard ($14/user/month), not available on cheaper Workspace tiers
  • Credit-based system layered on top of tier usage limits adds complexity to understanding real usage capacity
  • Ultra tier’s $99.99-$199.99/month range represents significant cost for maximum usage limits and Deep Think access
