The AppleEvent Object Model (AEOM) was a set of protocols built on top of AppleEvents by which applications running under Mac OS could control each other's functions. Applications that implemented some part of the AEOM were called scriptable because they could be controlled via AppleScript.

The AEOM provided a syntactic layer under which any application could publish its internal objects, allowing those objects to be manipulated in a standardized way. Unlike other similar-sounding concepts such as ToolTalk, there was a clear, orthogonal distinction between nouns and verbs; thus, instead of providing separate commands for "close document" and "close window", there was a single "close" verb which could take references to "document" or "window" objects, or any other object that the application published.
