The product is good, but there’s a lot of telemetry that I was not comfortable with given that search bar like those may see very sensitive information.

I guess that’s the modern way to approach development.

Raycast has only rudimentary file workflows. Constant efforts for monetization (VC money) and milking AI hype are just cherries on top.

There’s so much AI cruft on that page that I can’t even tell what the product is supposed to be.

Only one AI section out of 12 total sections, and while the second section has an AI example, it's only one out of five.

It's basically Alfred with more (?) functionality. Which is basically Spotlight with more functionality. Which is basically a tool to "do stuff" from anywhere on the device.

Looks interesting.. how does it compare to Launchbar?
