ReCue: group your open windows and tabs into projects, then recall any of them with ⌥Space ($10 one-time, 2 MB)

ReCue lets you assign windows to a project, then pull any of them back by searching. Press ⌥Space, type a few letters, get the window, restored close to its saved size and position. It never reads the contents of your documents, pages or terminal sessions.macOS 14+, 2 MB, native SwiftUI. Needs Accessibility permission, plus Automation if you save tabs. Tabs currently work with Ghostty 1.3+, Chrome, Chrome Canary and Chrome for Testing. Includes an Alfred workflow and a recuectl CLI. Everything stays on your Mac: no account, no sync, no analytics. Signed and notarized by Apple. ComparisonWorkspaces 2 by Apptorium ($19.99) is a project based launcher: you register files and apps ahead of time and it opens them. ReCue works the other way, capturing windows that are already open and bringing that exact one back. Workspaces is better for starting a project from a cold boot. ReCue is for when you already have forty windows open and cannot find the three that matter right now. Raycast's window switcher and Cmd-Tab give you one flat global list with no notion of a project. ReCue searches the current project first, then everything else.Moom and Rectangle arrange windows on screen but do not track which windows belong to which task. I still run one alongside ReCue.
