Canonical page: https://macbase.app/alternatives/raycast

Extendable launcher for Mac with built-in tools like clipboard history, snippets and windows.

Raycast keeps its AI features and cloud sync in a paid plan. Some people want a launcher that does less and stays out of the way, one that's open source, or one that's bought once and keeps everything on the Mac.
