About Raycast AI
Raycast started as a faster launcher and grew an AI layer on top. The core app is free, but AI arrives with Pro: Quick AI, AI Chat, agents, AI commands, screen awareness and memory, all metered in credits. Team plans mirror that structure per user. The appeal is speed: you call AI from the keyboard without switching windows.
