How these alternatives were chosen
Tools Flow Launcher names as alternatives that this directory also publishes, followed by others in Productivity. The order is not a ranking, and "—" means we have not checked that field — not that the answer is no.
Flow Launcher also lists Alfred (macOS), Raycast (macOS), Everything (Windows file search only), Windows Search, Launchy as alternatives. Those are not in this directory yet, so there is nothing to compare — and nothing to link to.
