Changelog

Raycast 2.0 is out of Beta! 🎉

Thank you so much for being a part of it! We would not be at this point without all of your feedback and support.

With this release, Windows users don’t need to take any additional action. Raycast will update in the background or you can run check for updates like you usually do. We are also bumping up our Windows version to 2.0.0.0 to align with our macOS versioning.

During the beta, all of our Pro features were available for free while we tested and improved the experience. With this release, those features are now part of Raycast Pro, including Dictation and AI Chat.

To help with the transition, signing in gives you a 7 day free trial of Pro including all AI models available on this plan. No credit card is required.

The best chats start with the right context. Screen Awareness brings context from your focused app or window into AI Chat or Quick AI, so you don’t have to copy text, attach screenshots, or explain what you’re looking at.

Use the Send Focused Window to AI command, choose Screen Awareness from the @ menu, or simply ask “summarise this” or “reply to this”.

The first time you use the command, a short onboarding guide helps you set a hotkey. Our team likes to double-tap the right Ctrl key.
