Small Web: Rescuing the Human internet with Kagi

Privacy-focused search engine Kagi has launched the Small Web project for iOS and Android. This initiative aims to revive the early internet experience by prioritizing human-centric content over AI-generated text and algorithm-driven pages.

What is the Small Web?

The platform acts as a live directory, connecting users to:

  • Independent blogs and niche forums
  • Handcrafted personal websites
  • Authentic, non-commercial publications

By filtering out the commercial noise and SEO-saturated results typical of traditional search engines, the Small Web helps users discover creators who maintain the essence of an independent web.

Why Use It?

As generative AI and corporate content dominate the digital landscape, the Small Web provides a space for human creativity. Available through dedicated apps and browser extensions, it ensures that small publishers and enthusiasts remain visible, fostering a genuine person-to-person information exchange.
