Where does Kagi get its results?
Mixed sources: Kagi runs its own indexes Teclis (web, small web) and TinyGem (news) and combines them with anonymised API calls to major search result providers plus sources it names: Marginalia, Wolfram Alpha, Apple, Wikipedia, Open Meteo, Yelp and TripAdvisor; about a dozen sources per query[1]. The major providers are not listed by name on the page as fetched. Kagibot respects robots.txt and falls back to Googlebot rules when no Kagibot rule exists[2].
