What is Raycast AI?

Raycast is a productivity launcher for Mac that combines command shortcuts with AI capabilities. It lets you quickly access apps, files, and custom commands from anywhere on your computer, reducing time spent hunting through menus. The Pro version adds AI features powered by your choice of models including GPT-4, Claude 3, and Llama 3, letting you get writing help, code assistance, and answers without leaving your workflow. You can synchronise your setup across devices and customise the interface with different themes. It's designed for people who spend a lot of time on their Mac and want faster access to tools and information.
