It's just a proxy for Google and Brave results. They don't have their own index. That said it's a great alternative if you don't like SearX.

How is it compared to DuckDuckGo (Bing)?
It's really a personal perference since we all search differently. They each have strenghts based on different type of queries. I personally don't like results from DuckDuckGo alone. Also they have their own crawler these days to sumpliment results from Bing API. https://duckduckgo.com/duckduckgo-help-pages/results/duckduckbot
I use a mix of all indexers with SearX and the best results for me come from Quant. But it's nice to have all of them to compliment each other.
Tried it, seems great, thanks for the share!
