I'm sure today's app will be a game changer for you. It will help you save time 🥷. Although this one's a Mac app, I'm listing down a few Windows alternatives at the bottom. Enjoy the read! 👇
The Problem and The Pitch
How do you search on your computer? 🔍
📁 Do you navigate your folders for a specific file? 🏃♂️ Or do you go to Notion looking for a note? 🌐 Or do you head over to Google and search for your query?
You shouldn't be! That’s the old way.
If you do that, you’ll get distracted. In the next moment, you’ll have drowned in other Notion pages or a meme on Twitter. Instead, you can search for it on Raycast in an instant.
And that's how you achieve a flow state (inspired by Superhuman)
🙅 Avoid context switching
✅ Make the next action obvious
🔉 Get clear & immediate feedback
Raycast is a blazing fast, universal search bar. That integrates with (almost) anything you use. It lets you search in other apps, complete tasks, and act as a central control for other apps.
It is what Spotlight and Alfred aspire to be. 10x better.
What's special?
Every once in a while, a new product is built that seems like magic. It makes us want to alter our workflow and question the way we did things in the past.
Notion, Figma, and Calendly are some of them.
Raycast's ⚡ speed, 🔗 integrations, and ♥️ community put it in this elite group.

In effect, the ♥️ community contributes with 🔗 integrations which in turn enables ⚡ speed.
🔥 Stop chasing around browser tabs and tools to get work done.
The simplest things take way too many clicks. Not to mention the time spent in front of loading indicators on websites 🥱. With Raycast, you can control your tools with a few keystrokes ⌨️. The command line inspired interface unifies tools as commands to cut through the noise ⚡
The new workflows that Raycast enables are magical 🪄
