Does Raycast Have a Student Discount? How to Apply

に公開

TL;DR

Raycast Pro has a student discount (50% off)!
It applies only to the Raycast Pro plan and is not applicable to the Advanced AI add-on. After applying via the verification form, you'll receive a coupon code, making it $10/month → $5/month, or $8/month → $4/month for annual billing.

What exactly is Raycast?

An advanced launcher alternative to Mac's Spotlight and Alfred.
Its appeal lies in being able to handle most tasks with just “␣ + Command,” including not only app searches but also:

  • Clipboard history
  • Snippet management
  • Window management
  • Over 10,000 extensions

…and more. Recently, Raycast AI, which allows switching between multiple models like GPT-4o, has been integrated, and it's becoming a staple among productivity junkies.
