Kagi

What it is

A paid, ad-free search engine. By default it tells sites that visitors found them through Kagi, and users can turn that off.

Why there's no full URL

Kagi shares only its origin. Users who turn on "Hide kagi.com Referrer" send no Kagi referrer at all, so their visits look direct.

What traffic it represents

Clicks from Kagi search results by users who haven't hidden the referrer.

Sources

When clicking on search results to other websites, Kagi lets them know you found them through Kagi.
