It\u2019s been in use inside Apple since November 2025.<\/p>\n<p>Enchant\u00e9 was designed \u201cspecifically for Apple\u2019s workflows and security requirements\u201d and runs on \u201cmodels approved by Apple.\u201d That includes Apple\u2019s Foundation Models, as well as access to Anthropic\u2019s Claude and Google\u2019s Gemini models.<\/p>\n<p>Employees are able to upload files and documents for analysis. The app can also \u201calso access files stored on the Mac as a source for answers.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>According to an internal memo from Apple, Enchant\u00e9 can be used by employees not only as a test platform, but also to help them with everyday tasks at work. The app includes a database of Apple\u2019s internal documentation and guidelines, and is being used across all departments, including engineering, design, marketing, and leadership.<\/p>\n<p>Macworld also reports that Apple has a second internal app known as \u201cEnterprise Assistant,\u201d which \u201cacts as a centralized knowledge hub for corporate employees.\u201d This app reportedly contains a \u201cdatabase of Apple\u2019s internal policies,\u201d and employees can ask questions about things ranging from health insurance and vacation days to technical problems.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/9to5mac.com\/2025\/09\/26\/bloomberg-apple-using-a-chatgpt-style-app-to-test-next-gen-siri\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Bloomberg has also reported<\/a> on Apple\u2019s internal use of a ChatGPT-style app to test Apple Intelligence features.
