MacPaw Logo
MacPaw
A mac-only AI companion that automates routine workflows, manages small tasks across apps, and proactively offers help to keep your desktop focused and efficient.

Designed specifically for macOS, this companion understands natural language and executes multi-step actions on your machine, removing repetitive busywork like app switching, toggles, searches, and file handling.

Offered by MacPaw in a closed beta via Setapp, the tool mixes on-device models with trusted partners (e.g., OpenAI GPT-4, LLaMA, Google Gemini) while emphasizing user privacy and keeping files under your control.

Built-in capabilities include background threat scanning, photo search and enhancement, text and code improvements, meeting recording with transcription and summaries, and automatic VPN connections; developers can also create and add custom "skills."

System requirements and availability: macOS 14+ on Apple Silicon or Intel, access via Setapp waitlist and beta invitation; outputs may require review during this early stage, and feedback channels (Discord, in-app) are provided to help shape the product.
