Documented terms
Read 2026-10-15: pricing/manual list Pro 500, Pro+ 3,000 and Max 7,500 credits/month; Free has no AI, and advanced models are outside the trial. The AI feature page's annual cards show Pro $8/month with $96 billed annually and Teams Pro $12/user/month with $144 annually; currency code, monthly checkout prices and Plus/Max amounts were not confirmed. Terms say fees include applicable VAT/sales tax and subscriptions auto-renew. Monthly grants expire after 60 days; top-ups after 12 months and require paid service; team top-ups are per member, not pooled. Self-supplied models use provider limits/costs instead.

Pricing source read:
Pricing or terms sourceCode, model and service licensing
The app/service and model access are proprietary; open-source extensions do not open-source the app or hosted models. Terms assign only Raycast's acquired output copyright, subject to law, your input rights and AI-provider terms; uniqueness and non-infringement are not guaranteed. Raycast says it does not train on AI inputs, while hosted-provider agreements, feedback opt-in and self-supplied providers have distinct scope. Cloud sync, attachments and memory create storage/processing exceptions; Mistral and xAI have stated 30-day retention. BYOK is not uniformly direct or local.
Basis and limits of the recorded score
The existing 4.4 is preserved. The original scoring worksheet was not recorded; this documentation-only update does not re-score speed, model quality or workflow safety.
Overview
Raycast AI brings chat, Quick AI, reusable prompts and agents into Raycast. AI Extensions can connect tools; agents can act through permissions you enable. The documentation also supports using selected external subscriptions, API keys, custom providers or local Ollama models. Mac, Windows and iOS appear in current product materials, but feature parity was not tested.
Raycast Free does not include AI. Paid tiers supply monthly credits rather than a fixed message count, with different model eligibility. External-model use follows the connected provider's cost and privacy terms. Local-first storage does not make hosted AI local: cloud sync, attachments, optional feedback and memory can involve server processing. Review both model routing and action permissions before enabling sensitive workflows.
