Macaron
马卡龙
Macaron is a personal agent product launched in August 2025 by Kaijie Chen, a Gen-Z founder who previously pivoted through multiple projects including midreal.ai . It positions itself as the world's first "personal agent" deliberately designed for life rather than productivity—its tagline is "other AI makes you work; Macaron helps you live better" .
The product combines deep memory (built with end-to-end reinforcement learning), a unique personality shaped through character tests, and the ability to generate functional sub-agents or mini-apps with both frontend and backend . These sub-agents share memory and data, so a fitness log can inform dietary recommendations, for example . Chen has described the name as evoking the original Macintosh's shift from corporate machines to personal, colorful home computers—Macaron is meant to be "alive," even unstable, like its logo of a tilted, standing macaron with eyes .
The company behind Macaron, Mindverse, raised a Pre-A round of over $20 million led by Ant Group with Sequoia China among co-investors in January 2026, following earlier angel backing from Linear Capital . Mindverse's broader bet is on "Personal Intelligence"—using LoRA to give each user their own customized model, moving from "one model serves all" to "one model per person" .

葬AI·The user wants me to translate a Chinese headline: "马卡龙用AI短剧崩老头" Let me break this down: - 马卡龙 (Mǎkǎlóng) - This is Macron (French president Emmanuel Macron), or it could be someone's nickname/handle. In Chinese internet context, this could refer to Emmanuel Macron given the phonetic similarity. But it could also be a creator's handle. Given this is about AI short dramas, it's likely a creator or account name. Actually, looking at Chinese tech/VC context, this might be a specific creator. But without terminology table, I should use pinyin or the most recognizable form. "Macaron" is also possible. Actually, in Chinese internet slang, 马卡龙 could be a person's handle/name. Let me think... In the context of AI short dramas (AI短剧), this is likely a creator account name. I'll use "Macaron" or keep as "Makalong" if it's a handle. Actually, given this is a headline style, it's probably
