Site-stated AI capabilities

Page typeEvidenceSource
changesThe second significant feature developed in 2025 was our carefully considered support for Apple Intelligence, which enabled optional new AI-powered workflows in OmniFocus and OmniOutliner.https://www.omnigroup.com/blog/omni-roadmap-2026
changes“AI” (specifically, generative large language models) filled the news over this past year. It was a very hot topic: some people love it, some people find it very concerning. The concerns are real and valid; the helpfulness is also real. There’s a lot for the industry to untangle, and everything is changing quickly.https://www.omnigroup.com/blog/omni-roadmap-2026
changesOmni Automation is also all about putting control in the hands of the user, so that’s our fulcrum for integrating with Apple Intelligence. This particular approach to querying the on-board Apple Intelligence shipped first in OmniFocus, and is now also shipping in OmniOutliner.https://www.omnigroup.com/blog/omni-roadmap-2026
changesOur approach to Apple Intelligence, and AI generally, is offline. It’s private. It’s customizable. It’s under your control. It’s not reliant on anything out in the cloud. And it’s happening based on the power of the device that’s already at your fingertips.https://www.omnigroup.com/blog/omni-roadmap-2026
changesAdditionally, everything about our approach is completely opt-in. We think that’s important. Unlike some other solutions, we’re not trying to push anyone towards AI. But, many of our customers are using AI quite a bit and are excited by its capabilities. As Apple noted, using the Apple Foundation Models framework empowers users to unlock new app experiences in Omni apps.https://www.omnigroup.com/blog/omni-roadmap-2026
changesSiri is the face of Apple Intelligence, but behind the scenes Apple Intelligence has a whole range of technologies in Golden Gate and OS 27: Siri App Intents, App Entities, On-screen Awareness, App Domains, Foundation Models, Private Cloud Compute, Core AI, Visual Intelligence, and Image Playgrounds.https://www.omnigroup.com/blog/omni-roadmap-2026-post-wwdc-update
changesOur particular approach to querying the on-board Apple Intelligence is well-aligned with Apple’s approach, valuing privacy and working locally. We’re glad to see Apple build a platform for AI, not just a narrow solution. You can expect our future efforts to continue to value privacy, work locally, and put the user in control.https://www.omnigroup.com/blog/omni-roadmap-2026-post-wwdc-update
changesWe have been thinking deeply about how AI has been advancing. The technology itself can have some really great applications, when put to good use. But there are also real controversies and real concerns. We’re very careful about how we use AI ourselves. I look forward to talking about that in more depth, but that’s a whole different topic for another day.https://www.omnigroup.com/blog/omni-roadmap-2026-post-wwdc-update
changesAI technologies are moving fast, so we applaud Apple’s nimble approach. Apple doesn’t need to limit the system to one LLM, when they can instead make it easy for third parties to provide LLM options.https://www.omnigroup.com/blog/omni-roadmap-2026-post-wwdc-update
changesAt WWDC, we also watched to learn whether Apple’s architecture would have a place for existing AI harnesses and orchestration tools, which talk to apps using the Model Context Protocol (MCP). We’ve been watching the MCP space all year, but we’ve been reluctant to implement something that might be redundant with work Apple was doing. This year, Apple did announce MCP integration for Xcode, but not for App Intents; Xcode’s integration is only for developers, not for end users.https://www.omnigroup.com/blog/omni-roadmap-2026-post-wwdc-update
changesImplementing MCP support will make it easy for customers who have started working with Claude and other LLM orchestrators to integrate their AI-based workflows with our apps. Some customers have already wired up MCP to all of our apps using our Omni Automation APIs, but we want to make this easier for all of our customers who have this need.https://www.omnigroup.com/blog/omni-roadmap-2026-post-wwdc-update
changesWe want our apps to be available for our customers who are trying to work in those AI ecosystems, but we also want to be careful not to impose AI on those who have concerns or who are not interested. Wish us luck! And if you’re interested in helping us test this work, let us know.https://www.omnigroup.com/blog/omni-roadmap-2026-post-wwdc-update
