Is there a way to disable this? We have a strict no-ai policy. Even having it available will be an issue and I may not be able to use Kagi at work.

As a user myself, I'm not sure. Assistant is a separate view so it's easy to never interact with it but yeah, I can see why that might be a work policy issue. You could try requesting that as a feature in https://kagifeedback.org. The team are quite responsive there and historically Vlad the CEO reads every post.

Curious is it no AI or no LLMs policy? Search has used some form of AI since inception.

Are you imagining one switch toggle that would disable it at the team account level (or individual account level - in which case it would theoratically still be opt-in and 'available' like it is now).

Genuinly trying to understand the UX of it that would comply with the policy.

Settings > Search > Manage search AI features

Has the option to turn off Auto AI feature.

It might be an good idea to post on their support forum.

Can you describe the why of the policy and if you are ok sharing the industry?

I am also curious if you have other restrictions on information sharing, API usage, and what reference documentation to use.

FastGPT & Kagi Translate have been available for a while, so if you have a Kagi subscription you've already had AI accesss.
