New App Intents and Apple Intelligence Consulting Availability

Get your app ready for Apple Intelligence with App Intents consulting — from audits to full integrations with Siri, Spotlight, and Shortcuts.

App Intents are how Apple devices understand and interact with your app. They’re the foundation of features of like Shortcuts, Siri, Spotlight – and now Apple Intelligence. If you want your app to take advantage of the deepest parts of the Apple ecosystem, it starts with App Intents.

Following recent projects with Foodnoms, MindNode, and Tripsy, I now have availability for App Intents consulting this fall and into 2026. In addition to full start-to-finish projects, I’m introducing new flexible options:

  • Audits: a focused review of your existing intents, data models, and opportunities
  • Docs-only: structured documentation you can use with your team to implement directly

If you want Apple Intelligence to understand your app’s core features, or you want to deploy your app across the system to make a cohesive experience, I can help you design and deliver the following:

  • The unreleased Actions and Context portions of Apple Intelligence
  • App Intents, App Entities, and App Enums for your app
  • Automatically-generated instances of important intents as App Shortcuts
  • Spotlight, Siri, and Controls integrations
  • Custom Shortcuts to be distributed to users
  • Documentation on the new offerings
  • Share ongoing updates in a developer newsletter

Each engagement starts with a free, 1-hour call to asses your needs, discuss budgets and rates, and outline next steps – whether you’re working on a brand, part of a team, or an indie developer, we can find a solution that works for you.

You can learn more about my services, explore past client work, and watch my conference talks on my Consulting. If you’re ready to move forward, book a call with me directly to get started.

Let’s make your app one of the best citizens of the Apple ecosystem – ready for Apple Intelligence, Shortcuts, and beyond.
