I'm actually super surprised Google does this kind of deals. I've thought they don't do this, becuase it would help competition to get started. Once you get traction, then it might be possible to drop the Google access.

This is what Kagi says in the FAQ.

I'm guessing Google does not this kind of deals unless very rare exceptions like Ecosia. You have some companies parsing Google results, like SerpApi, but it is a bit shady.
