Good brand, SWURL! Can you swop out Google for other search engines like You.com and DDG?



And Kagi

The big win for this site def seems to be provider selection. Plus reordering.

Would also appreciate some security assistance. The main reason I use Kagi is speed, the second is privacy. Adding more search providers reduces privacy, unless there is some nice proxying involved.

Need to check this out on desktop… it’s great on mobile!


Thank you, glad you like the name, Swurl.

I would totally be cool with swapping out other search engines, but You.com and DDG don't give any a search API, so can't do that. If you know any good other search engines that I can integrate with an API let me know :)


Just added Bing, you can switch to it from the menu on the top right to enable Bing instead of Google. Please try it out and let me know if that helps you.


It would be nice if it could be customized.

And allow the user to remove sites, such as Pinterest, from the search results.
