MacPaw launched Eney, a proactive AI assistant for Mac and iPhone, on 15 October, the company announced. The assistant works across apps, files and the system, prepares the next step and, by default, asks before it sends a message, changes an event or moves a file.
According to 9to5Mac, development began in 2019, when MacPaw first imagined using natural-language commands to simplify its CleanMyMac utility. The project was reshaped as large language models and then agentic AI took off, and Eney now runs AI both on the device and in the cloud, using custom models the company built with Liquid AI for Apple’s hardware.
Eney is the first product built on MacPaw’s own AI stack. At its core is Mnemos, a memory layer that remembers what matters to the user, updates facts when they are corrected and shows when an answer draws on something it remembered. MacPaw says Mnemos manages only Eney’s own memory and never reads or changes files or other apps.
Eney Wand, opened with Option-W, lets users drag over anything on screen to translate text in place, convert a price, turn a date into a calendar event, copy text out of an image or blur what shouldn’t be shared. Eney Spell corrects spelling, grammar and wording in Mail, Slack, Notes and the browser. The assistant also offers to transcribe calls and draft notes, tasks and follow-up invitations, warns about low disk space, memory pressure and crashing apps, and offers summaries, conversions or translations when text is copied. It works with Apple Mail, Calendar and Reminders out of the box and connects to Gmail, Google Calendar, Google Drive, Slack, Notion, Jira and Linear.
Eney supports eight languages: English, German, Spanish, French, Italian, Polish, Brazilian Portuguese and Ukrainian. The Mac version is available now from eney.ai, needs macOS 15 or later and is free to try for 14 days with 10,000 AI credits; an iPhone version is on the App Store. Users can also sign in with a Setapp account, though a Setapp membership isn’t required. MacPaw has not published regular pricing in its announcement, and it is unclear whether the iPhone version includes every feature on the Mac.
