Eney by MacPaw

Eney by MacPaw is a proactive AI assistant for Apple Silicon Macs that connects apps like Notion, Linear and Google Docs, takes meeting notes, drafts email and completes everyday tasks using a credit-based model.

Eney is an AI assistant for Mac built by MacPaw, the company behind a long line of Mac utilities. Instead of waiting for questions like a chat bot, it watches what is happening in your work, points out what needs attention and carries out tasks across the apps you already use. The pitch is less tab switching and fewer small chores that interrupt focus. In practice, Eney works through natural language. There are no commands or scripts to memorize: a request is broken into smaller steps and handled automatically, with suggested next actions offered while the user stays in control. Its abilities are packaged as skills, each one a specific action such as managing files, summarizing documents or controlling Mac apps. The product describes dozens of supported apps and hundreds of skills, with new ones added weekly. Current skills cover several everyday areas. It can join calls, take meeting notes and send a summary afterward. It drafts emails, captures notes, pulls up unread messages and sends quick replies. Connectors reach Notion, Linear and Google Docs for finding, updating and creating tasks, while file skills search Google Drive, edit Docs, split PDFs and convert Word files to PDF. Image and video skills handle cropping, flipping, annotating, trimming and QR codes. Access is limited to data the user has explicitly allowed, such as calendar, notes or email. Eney suits Mac users who juggle many tools: knowledge workers, project managers, and anyone whose day is split between email, documents and task trackers. It requires Apple Silicon and macOS 14 or later, supports English only, and is offered as a preview through Setapp. Usage is metered by credits, with free credits on every account and paid monthly bundles for heavier use. Among alternatives, general chat assistants mostly answer questions, while Eney positions itself as an agent that acts on the desktop. That makes it closer to a personal operations layer than a writing or research tool, though its skill library is still growing and its preview status means capabilities will keep shifting.
