Long time Alfred user — but drifted towards Raycast because it embraced the web, web services, OAuth, and modern productivity. I'm not sure what changed on the Alfred side, but I'm glad to see that it's coming into the future, slowly, with its 5.5 release.

Hi, I'm Vero, Alfred co-founder 👋 Alfred 5.5 is a huge release; With the Grid, Text, Image and PDF Views, you can present your results in Alfred in a whole new way! You can see some of the highlights of what's new in Alfred 5.5 here: https://www.alfredapp.com/whats-... To show you how you can use these new objects, we've created a few workflows: The ChatGPT / DALL-E integration workflow (https://alfred.app/workflows/alf...) uses the interactive Text View so that you can ask ChatGPT your question, get streaming results in-line and continue the conversation with further questions. You can also use DALL-E in-line for image generation. The Thumbnail Navigation workflow (https://alfred.app/workflows/alf...) primarily uses the Grid View; Browse your files, images and folders visually in Alfred, and preview images, PDFs and documents in-line. We've also created a Memory Pairs game (https://alfred.app/workflows/vit... Test your brain with a card-matching game. It saves your current state so you can come back to it later to finish your game. 😆 These new views are already being integrated into more existing popular workflows, many of which are included in the Gallery. As well as these, You'll find hundreds of curated, verified workflows created by our team and community workflow creators on Alfred Gallery (https://alfred.app) As ever, our forum community is always there to help you pick or create the best workflows to suit your own working style and productivity habits.

Alfred user since 2018. Use it every 10 minutes or so 🤣 Super cool to be able to talk to ChatGPT directly from Alfred. Would love to have a workflow that integrates the Perplexity Online API

@nicocaramella Sounds like the Perplexity API is conveniently similar to the ChatGPT one, so it might be as simple as changing the API endpoint in the workflow Environment Variables. There's a thread on alternative models on the forum, where you can join the conversation if you'd like to try using Perplexity as another option: https://www.alfredforum.com/topi...
