What's the limit on number of notes? I see that the paid plan has "unlimited notes" but don't see the limit for free plans.
Thomas Paul Mann
@twistermc Free plan includes 5 notes. With Pro you get unlimited, synced and backed up notes. Plus AI, custom themes, unlimited clipboard history, and a bunch of other enhancements in Raycast itself.

I think i might need to switch from obsidian now. Congrats on the launch @nichlaswa
Thomas Paul Mann
@nichlaswa @hadjimina Few people in the community are using both apps in parallel where Obsidian acts more as a long-term storage and Raycast Notes as the quick way to capture thoughts, meeting notes, and other ephemeral text.

I've been waiting all year for the pro version of Floating Notes. It's the notes app that I quickly open using a BetterTouchTool finger gesture.* It opens on the right side of my 27" iMac. In the regular version of Floating Notes, I often had notes from several different meetings. I had to copy and paste different notes if I wanted to save them permanently. Now, with the pro version, I can keep separate pages for different topics. I use another finger gesture to quickly open the Action Panel, which I like for formatting my notes. Floating Notes is not a space for my permanent notes, but it's a place where I can quickly jot down and access notes until I decide where to save them permanently. By the way, Zoom Workplace has a similar floating notes feature that I also use mostly for permanent meeting notes. My biggest wish for Floating Notes is for Raycast AI to be able to integrate with it. *My finger gesture trigger also automatically opens the Browse Notes overlay when I first open Floating Notes. I do this because I usually switch between notes when I open Floating Notes. It saves me one less click and keyboard shortcut. >What would you like to do? What are you use-cases for AI within Notes? @thomaspaulmann , I would like the AI to answer questions or generate content based on my saved notes. (I couldn't get my reply to post. So wrote it here.)

@maxcompe Raycast Notes makes it frictionless to organize your thoughts from anywhere on your Mac. You can track your todos, take notes during meetings, and save your next big idea. It’s designed to be lightweight with Markdown support and is just a keystroke away with a deep integration into the rest of Raycast’s ecosystem

The Float Note has been upgraded to a complete product—it's amazing to witness its development! Every time my girlfriend goes shopping and buys sticky notes or stands, she suggests I get one too, but I tell her I have Float Note. It would be even better if it supported multiple windows like Apple Stickies! By the way, what other plans do you have for this product? Which features will you continue to iterate on? 🙋
