CleanMyMac is one of the Mac utilities on the market, and it’s my go-to when I need to free up hard drive space, uninstall apps, etc. The company is making a different kind of bet with Leebry, a Work AI platform aimed at helping IT teams.

About Apple @ Work: Bradley Chambers has been an Apple IT admin since 2009. Through his experience deploying and managing firewalls, switches, a mobile device management system, enterprise grade Wi Fi, 1000s of Macs, and 1000s of i Pads, Bradley will highlight ways in which Apple IT managers deploy Apple devices, build networks to support them, train users, share stories from the trenches of IT management, and ways Apple could improve its products for IT departments. The AI trust numbers MacPaw’s 2026 AI at Work report is where you see the issue IT faces, as they found that 90% of companies deploy AI without thoroughly auditing their internal knowledge base first.

That means that internal AI tools are answering employee questions based on whatever it can find, including old product docs, outdated policies, and random Reddit discussion forums. In this survey, MacPaw found that 6 in 10 IT leaders see a real disconnect between what their C-Suite expects from AI tools (thanks to LinkedIn feeds) and what their teams can safely and accurately deliver. That gap is where most AI disappointment lives, and it’s the problem Leebry is attempting to solve for IT teams.

What Leebry actually does: Leebry began as an internal MacPaw hackathon project in 2025. The problem it was solving was employees repeatedly asking the same questions internally, even when the answers already existed somewhere in the company’s documentation, intranets, Slack threads, etc. MacPaw built a Slack bot to surface those answers and point employees to the exact source. Within a few months, it was resolving 30% of MacPaw’s own level 1 IT tickets, so that became the foundation for what they’re launching today with Leebry.

The platform automates level 1 support tickets, handles access provisioning and removal as employees join, move roles, or leave, and answers employee questions across the tools they already use. Every Leebry response links back to its source, so employees can verify the answer rather than just trust it (and prove it), and can flag stale or outdated information that could affect accuracy. That last part is the direct product response to the 90% knowledge audit gap identified in the report.
