Glaze is Raycast's new bet: AI that builds real desktop apps, not websites. You describe what you want, Glaze builds it — a Mac app that runs locally, launches instantly, and works offline. File system access, keyboard shortcuts, menu bar integration, background processes. The kind of things you can't do in a browser tab.
The pitch is positioning against Lovable, Replit, and v0, which all build for the web. Glaze builds for the OS. Your data stays on your machine. Apps feel native because they are.
The use cases the team lists: internal tools, personal utilities, menu bar apps, workflow automations. Their own support team built a GitHub-connected app to manage their extension review workflow. When you can shape software around how your team actually works, that's a different thing from a SaaS with a settings page.
Free tier with daily credits, paid from $20/month. Mac only to start. Currently in private beta with a waitlist — Raycast users get priority access.
