I feel the same way. I'm probably going to end my subscription at some point, but right now the effort involved is what's keeping me with Kagi.

Is usage based pricing available?

I'm thinking of trying it out Kagi, but adding another monthly commitment is what's holding me back.

A single credit top-up and occasional usage until the credits run out sounds good to me.

Edit: Kagi has a starter plan with 100 free searches: https://kagi.com/pricing

Also, from the Kagi privacy pass FAQ at https://blog.kagi.com/kagi-privacy-pass#faq:

    *Do you plan to allow purchasing privacy pass tokens without having an account?*

    Yes, this makes sense. This is possible because technically the extension does not care if you have an account or not. It just needs to be 'loaded' with valid tokens. And you can imagine a mechanism where you could also anonymously purchase them, eg. with monero, without ever creating an account at Kagi. Let us know *here* ( https://kagifeedback.org/d/6163-kagi-privacy-pass )  if you are excited about this, as it will help prioritize it.
Personally I don't like being signed in during searches, this seems like a good solution.

"the effort involved"

Feels like your comment saying it was too much effort to cancel Kagi took more effort than cancelling Kagi.

Actually their payment model has some baked in niceness.

If you don't use the service in a month, they just refund you. This has kept me from unsubscribing for years now. Some months I use it, some I don't.

It's more of hassle to unsub, and re-sub again when I want.
