|---|---|---|---|
| Plans | Basic Free Trying it, or anyone who only needs the last month of notes. | Free Free Trying Miro on one small project. | FreeOur pick Free Everyone. The launcher, clipboard history and all extensions. |
BusinessOur pick $14/user/mo Anyone in regular client or sales calls. | Starter $10/member/mo, or $8/member/mo billed yearly Freelancers and small teams who mostly whiteboard. | Pro $10/mo, or $8/mo billed yearly People who want AI one keystroke away. | |
Enterprise $35/user/mo Companies that need admin control over who records what. | BusinessOur pick $25/member/mo, or $20/member/mo billed yearly Teams that want the AI features properly. | Plus $20/mo, or $16/mo billed yearly Daily AI users who want the top models. | |
Enterprise Custom, from 30 members Large organisations needing control and data residency. | Max $50/mo, or $40/mo billed yearly Heavy AI users who want it all inside Raycast. | ||
Teams Pro $15/user/mo, or $12/user/mo billed yearly Teams sharing snippets, links and commands. | |||
Enterprise Custom IT-managed rollouts. | |||
| Which plan to pick | Start on Basic and see how it fits your week. If you find yourself wanting a call from six weeks ago, that's your signal to move to Business. Enterprise is only for IT-managed rollouts. | If you only whiteboard and dip into AI now and then, Starter is fine. If you want Sidekicks, Flows and prototypes, you need Business, and agencies benefit from its free client guests. Credits reset monthly and don't roll over, so buy a bundle before a big workshop week rather than mid-session. | Use Free until you catch yourself wishing the AI was there. Then Pro. Plus and Max only make sense if Raycast becomes your main way of talking to AI, and most people already pay for Claude or ChatGPT separately. |
