Frequently asked questions

How much does Raycast Pro cost?

Raycast Pro costs $8/mo and adds AI chat across multiple models, cloud sync, and custom themes. The core launcher, extensions, and productivity features are free.

Is Raycast free to use?

Yes, Raycast's launcher, extension store, clipboard history, snippets, and window management are free. Pro at $8/mo mainly adds AI chat with multiple models and cloud sync between Macs.

Is Raycast Pro worth it for the AI features?

If you already pay for a separate AI assistant, Raycast Pro at $8/mo can replace it for quick queries since it bundles access to multiple models in one launcher. Heavy coding-agent users will still want a dedicated tool like Claude Pro or Cursor.
