Built for every professional, every inbox
Your work matters. Your inbox shouldn't slow it down.
Whatever your role, whatever your business — the inbox is where the day happens. MerchGent AI learns how you write, understands the rhythm of your work, and quietly drafts emails for you to review. No downloads, no complicated setups, no IT involvement, no coding. Just drafts ready in your Drafts folder by morning.
How your agent works
Quiet in the background. Never misses a thread.
MerchGent AI operates quietly in the background, ensuring you never miss a message or lose track of a thread. It learns your business, manages the daily chaos of your inbox, and writes accurate, context-aware drafts for you to review.
Learns your business
Your agent analyzes your sent mail to understand your professional voice and your role. Up to 90 days of history, sampled smartly so high-volume senders don't get a voice profile dominated by one busy week. A v1 profile lands within hours of connection.
Manages your inbox proactively
Every hour the agent sweeps your inbox, classifies each new message into Must-Reply / Should-Read / Routine, and tags them in your mail client. No more inbox triage at 6am — by the time you open your phone, the day is already sorted.
Drafts intelligent replies
For every Must-Reply email, MerchGent AI instantly writes an accurate, context-aware draft in your voice. Reviewed by you, sent by you. Drafts arrive in your inbox by morning, ready to edit, ready to send.
Why professionals choose MerchGent AI
Speed and accuracy — for every kind of work.
MerchGent AI is built for any professional whose day lives in email — founders, account managers, operations leads, project managers, sales, support, sourcing. The agent reads your inbox, learns your voice, and drafts emails you'd actually send.
Zero missed emails
Never let an important request slip through the cracks. MerchGent AI sweeps your inbox every tick, triages every message into three lanes — must-reply, should-read, routine — and surfaces what actually needs you.
Maximum productivity
Reclaim the hours you spend typing the same kinds of replies. MerchGent AI drafts the routine work in your voice; you spend your time on the conversations that actually move things forward.
Smarter communication
Lightning-fast, highly professional responses that build trust with the people you work with. The agent matches the register of each thread — formal where formal is needed, direct where direct is.
Context-aware memory
Remembers what was promised, what was negotiated, and what was decided — across every counterpart. The agent never asks twice and never forgets a commitment you made last quarter.
Cross-border fluency
Seamlessly handles localized phrasing in every market you work across. Replies in the inbound's language, in the register that audience expects. English, Mandarin, and 30+ others handled natively.
Time-zone advantage
Wake up to drafts already prepared for the messages that came in overnight. By the time you open your laptop, your inbox is already moving — not piling up.
Organises your inbox
Every new message gets tagged into one of three lanes — must reply, should read, no attention — so a 300-email morning takes 30 minutes to skim. Tell the agent to also clean up older mail on demand and your historical inbox gets organised the same way.
Weekly work report
Need a bird's-eye view? MerchGent AI can send a weekly work report to any address you choose — yourself, a partner, a manager — summarising key issues, drafts handled, and pending escalations. Built from operational metadata only, never email contents. The recipient sees the WHAT and WHY without intruding on the team's correspondence.
It learns from you, not the other way around
Gets sharper every week you use it.
Most AI tools peak the day you buy them. MerchGent AI is the opposite — it ships with a v1 voice profile and then improves continuously from every line you edit, plus a weekly voice-refresh pass that rolls in new patterns from your business. By month 2 most users barely edit at all.
- 1Day 1
v1 voice from your past sent box.
The 24-hour deep-learning bootstrap reads up to 90 days of your historical sent mail and builds a structured voice profile — greetings, sign-offs, sentence cadence, vocabulary tells, register shifts by relationship. Drafts are usable from the first hour.
- 2Week 1–2
It locks in your tells.
Every line you change before sending teaches the agent. Greetings, sign-offs, the specific way you push back on price, the one-liner you use when you're cleared to ship — all picked up from your edits within days.
- 3Week 4
Drafts sound like you wrote them.
Most customers report at week 4 they barely edit. The drafts read so close to their own writing that the buyer / factory can't tell. That's the moment you start trusting it on the strategic threads, not just the routine ones.
- 4Month 2+
Autopilot, with a weekly tune-up.
Every Sunday a voice-refresh pass rolls your last week's edits into the profile so it stays current with your business. New vendors, new buyers, new product lines — picked up automatically. The longer you use it, the less work it is.
But I already have Copilot
Generic AI summarises. MerchGent AI does the work.
Microsoft Copilot, Claude SMB, ChatGPT — they're all general-purpose chatbots in a sidebar. You ask, they answer. They don't know the people you work with, they don't track what's pending on your side, they don't draft replies in your voice without being prompted, and they don't run at 3am while you sleep. MerchGent AI is a different shape entirely.
Trained on your sent box, not the public internet
Generic AI writes in a generic voice — polite, hedged, instantly recognisable as AI. MerchGent AI learns from your last 90 days of sent mail and gets sharper every week. By month 2 the people you write to can't tell the difference.
Works without being asked
Copilot waits for you to open it and ask a question. MerchGent AI runs against your real inbox on its own — triaging, drafting, surfacing what's slipping — before you even sit down.
Knows the people you work with
Generic AI sees one email at a time. MerchGent AI keeps a live profile of every counterpart you correspond with — history, commitments, open threads, tone preferences — and uses it in every draft.
Built for real workflows, not demos
Copilot is a chatbot in a window. MerchGent AI lives inside your real email, drafting into your real Drafts folder, learning from your real edits. Demos are fine; production is different.
Why MerchGent AI
The most efficient hire you'll make this year.
MerchGent AI doesn't replace your team. It gives them back their time — so they can focus on the work only they can do.
Where we're going
You're buying a product that's still getting better.
What's shipped today is inbox triage plus drafting that learns your voice. What's coming over the next quarters turns it from an assistant into a real second brain. Every customer who joins now ships into these features as they land — no upcharge, no migration.
Daily action report.
A 30-second morning brief — what your agent drafted overnight, what's awaiting your reply, which supplier deadlines are slipping, which buyers went quiet. Lands in your inbox at 8am local. Cancel any day with one click.
Conversational inbox.
Ask your mailbox anything: "Show me everything Vendor X said about PO #4729", "What did the buyer agree to on lead time?", "Which threads are stalled on my side?" The agent reads the whole conversation history and answers like a teammate who never forgets.
Personal assistant, not just an inbox.
Beyond replies — surface stale negotiations, draft calendar invites from email threads, remind you about deals that haven't moved in two weeks, auto-write your weekly status note for the boss. The same voice profile, applied to more of your day.
Knows your business better than your new hire.
Over time the agent builds a structured memory of your suppliers, your buyers, your price ladders, your shipping windows, your standard objections. It briefs a new junior in 10 minutes. It catches when a vendor's quoting 12% over their last invoice. It's the institutional memory you've never been able to write down.
Absolute privacy & ironclad security
Your professional data is your most valuable asset. MerchGent AI is built as a fortress.
Your business relationships, your negotiations, your pricing history — none of it becomes training data, and none of it is shared, sold, or shown to anyone outside your account. Inbound emails are read in-flight via IMAP and never copied to our servers.
100% encrypted — same standard banks use
Your mailbox credential is encrypted with AES-256-GCM — the authenticated-encryption standard banks use to protect transactions and that the NSA approves for top-secret data. Every connection runs over TLS end-to-end. The encryption key never leaves our infrastructure.
Zero human eyes
No employee at MerchGent AI — no engineer, no operator, no support — ever reads your email. Only the AI agent does, to classify and draft. We can't see your inbox even if we wanted to.
Your inbox is never copied to our servers
Inbound emails are read in-flight via IMAP, classified, drafted against, and discarded. The agent learns your voice from a small sample of your own sent emails (disclosed in our Privacy Policy) — never your inbox. Drafts go straight to your provider's Drafts folder, not ours.
Drafts only — you keep control
MerchGent AI drafts the perfect response and sets it up for you, but it never hits send without your explicit consent. Read-and-draft permission only — never the send scope. Enforced at the protocol level, not a setting we could flip later. You always have the final say.

FAQ
Things people ask.
What kinds of businesses is this for?+
Any professional whose day lives in email. Founders, account managers, sales reps, customer success, operations leads, project managers, sourcing teams, real-estate brokers, lawyers, consultants — anyone who spends meaningful time reading and replying. The agent reads your inbox and adapts to how YOU work. Trading desks, agencies, B2B services, and ops-heavy teams have all been early adopters because email is their oxygen.
How long does it take to get going?+
About 5 minutes to connect your mailbox (longer for CN providers — see the CN question below). Within 24 hours the deep-learning bootstrap reads your past correspondence and builds your voice profile + counterpart cards. After that the agent runs on a schedule (every 60/30/15 min depending on tier) — drafts sit in your Drafts folder by the time you open your laptop. The voice keeps sharpening from your edits, with a weekly refresh pass.
Does it send emails on my behalf?+
No. Hard rule — drafts only. Every email gets your eyes before it goes out. We request the read-and-draft permission from your mailbox provider but never the send permission. This is enforced at the API scope level, not just a setting.
Who can read my emails?+
No human at MerchGent AI ever opens your inbox. No customer success rep, no engineer, no operator. Your emails and drafted replies are processed entirely by machines, inside an automated pipeline. The only logs we keep are operational metadata (counts, lane breakdowns, run timings) — never email contents. If you cancel, we delete your stored mailbox tokens and voice profile within 7 days.
Where does my data live and how is it secured?+
Mailbox credentials are stored AES-256-GCM encrypted at rest — the same authenticated-encryption standard banks use. Inbound emails are read in-flight via IMAP and never copied to our servers. The historical email corpus we read during the deep-learning bootstrap is processed in memory and discarded — only the derived profiles (counterpart cards, voice patterns, business summary) are persisted. Drafts live in YOUR own Drafts folder, on your mailbox provider's servers, not ours.
What about my professional relationships? My voice?+
That's the whole point. MerchGent AI reads up to three months of your sent mail on day one and builds a voice profile from your actual writing. Drafts read like you, not like generic AI. And it gets sharper every week — every line you edit before sending teaches the agent.
How long until drafts actually sound like me?+
Honest answer: drafts are usable from day one — they pick up your greeting style, sign-off, sentence length and vocabulary from the historical sample. But "sounds like the user wrote it" takes 2-4 weeks of normal use, because you'll edit each draft a little before sending and those edits teach the agent. Most customers report by week 4 they barely edit; by month 2 it's autopilot. High-volume senders converge faster (more signal); low-volume senders converge slower. The agent never stops learning — a weekly voice-refresh pass keeps it current with new patterns in your work.
I send hundreds of emails a day. Will this rack up huge token costs?+
No. The deep-learning bootstrap is hard-capped at ~1,500 of your most-recent sent messages plus a stratified sample of your top counterparts — high-volume senders don't blow the budget, and the sampling is diverse enough to capture your real voice. Ongoing usage is one classify-and-draft pass per inbound, also bounded. Our LLM provider is contracted not to train on the data, and the tier price is a flat monthly fee — no per-message surprises.
How does pricing work?+
Three flat-rate tiers based on how often the agent runs against your inbox: Starter $29/mo (60-min ticks), Pro $59/mo (30-min ticks), Power $99/mo (15-min ticks + full-inbox sweeps). Every tier includes 1 mailbox; add extras at $19/mo each. Cancel anytime, no contracts. The 24-hour deep-learning bootstrap is included in your first month at no extra charge.
How does the keep-rate guarantee work?+
Your dashboard has an acceptance meter ("Your numbers") that counts how many MerchGent drafts you actually kept — i.e. sent, with or without edits. If that rate is below 50% across your second month of use, email support@merchgent.com from your account email and we'll make your third month free. No forms, no haggling — we read the same meter you do. And because the sent-matching is deliberately conservative (a draft only counts as kept when it can be confidently tied to a message you sent), the meter undercounts in your favor, never against you.
Which email providers work?+
Microsoft 365 / Outlook (OAuth, one-click). Personal Outlook.com / Hotmail / Live (IMAP). Gmail and Google Workspace (IMAP via App Password — no OAuth required). All major Chinese enterprise mail: Tencent Exmail (腾讯企业邮箱), NetEase qiye (网易企业邮箱), Alibaba Cloud Mail, Sina. Plus iCloud, Yahoo, Titan, Zoho, Fastmail, and the universal "Any IMAP mailbox" option which covers Yandex, Hostinger, ProtonMail Bridge, self-hosted Dovecot, university mail, and anything else that speaks IMAP. If your provider doesn't appear, the generic IMAP path almost certainly works — just supply the IMAP host.
I'm on a Chinese mail provider — what should I expect when connecting?+
Honest answer: connecting Tencent Exmail (腾讯企业邮箱), NetEase qiye (网易企业邮箱) or Alibaba Cloud Mail is a two-step process that involves your IT admin. (1) Your domain administrator has to enable IMAP for your org in the provider's admin console — without this, the option is hidden in your personal settings. (2) You then generate a 'dedicated client password' or 'authorization code' (客户端专用密码 / 客户端授权码) in webmail — your regular login password will be rejected. We surface the exact step-by-step inside the connect flow, and we use the provider's overseas endpoints where they exist (e.g. Tencent's hwimap.exmail.qq.com) for faster connections from outside mainland China. None of the major CN providers offer OAuth for third-party mailbox access — so the auth-code dance is the path. Plan 5–10 minutes plus a quick word with your IT person.
