As far as I know, Kagi doesn't have their own index. They use a mix of google and brave's results (maybe some other search engines too?), and then sort their results to give "better" ordered results.

They use many sources, including other search engines and specific websites, but also claim to use two of their own indexes.

Yeah, from my experience I believe Kagi’s results are like 90%+ pulled from Brave’s search index. I like the concept of Kagi, but I prefer SearXNG as a search aggregator.
