Visit Raycast Freemium

Raycast is a keyboard launcher for macOS with an extension ecosystem covering window management, clipboard history, calendar, and direct integrations with tools like Linear and GitHub. It also runs quick AI commands against selected text. The free tier covers the core launcher and most extensions.
