Raycast TOS Changed

What changed

A new section was added covering AI-driven actions and permissions, including liability limitations when AI features perform automated tasks on your behalf, and the list of AI providers was moved to an external online manual rather than being enumerated in the TOS itself.

Details

• •A new subsection on AI Actions and Permissions was added, explaining that AI features can interpret instructions and carry out actions such as creating, modifying, or deleting files and configurations in the service or connected third-party services. Users are warned that AI actions may be incorrect or unintended.
• •The new section states that users are responsible for their own permission configurations, including enabling settings that allow AI to act without confirmation prompts (such as 'Always Allow' or 'Auto' modes). Raycast disclaims liability for actions taken under those conditions.
• •The specific list of AI providers (OpenAI, Anthropic, Perplexity, etc.) and their individual terms links were removed from the TOS text and replaced with a reference to an external online manual page that will be maintained separately.
• •The clause describing when Raycast does not retain or store user inputs was expanded: exceptions were added for Cloud Sync functionality, feedback review, and storage of uploaded documents or files where storage is necessary to provide the service.
• •The User Content license section was slightly revised to reference Article VIII limitations on inputs and AI providers, clarifying the scope of the license grant.
• •The Disclaimer of Warranties and related sections were updated to explicitly include 'Actions' (AI-driven operations) alongside the Service, extending the as-is disclaimer and warranty exclusions to cover AI-initiated actions.
• •Minor administrative updates were made: the last-updated date changed from April 8, 2026 to June 19, 2026, the site URL was updated to use https, and the company name had a minor punctuation adjustment.
