With thousands of extensions in the Raycast Store, you’ll find seamless integrations for your favorite tools, from Apple Notes to Slack, Linear, GitHub, and everything else in between.

There's no need to tinker with Alfred Workflows – chances are, Raycast has already addressed your needs with polished, ready-to-use extensions.

Raycast feels right at home on your Mac and is built with a keyboard-first approach that allows you to navigate the entire interface and use extensions without touching your mouse. You can perform any action with the standardized ⌘K Action menu, helping you stay in the flow.

You can assign keyboard shortcuts and aliases to everything in Raycast's root search – Commands, Apps, Scripts, Quicklinks and more – making it incredibly versatile.

In contrast, custom shortcuts are available only for Alfred's Workflows, a Powerpack feature that isn't included in the free version.
