SlickRun vs Fluent Search
Fluent Search searches files, apps, tabs and windows from one keyboard box with community plugins, replacing hand-made aliases, and is also closed source.

SlickRun vs PowerToys Command Palette
PowerToys Command Palette is an open-source Microsoft launcher that searches apps, files, commands and the web, but requires PowerToys running in the background.

Listary searches the whole drive and launches apps with habit-ranked fuzzy matching instead of fixed keywords, though some features need the paid Pro version.
SlickRun vs Flow Launcher
Flow Launcher is MIT licensed and searches apps, files, bookmarks and the web without manual aliases, with a plugin store, though binaries are unsigned.
SlickRun vs Keypirinha
