Every AI feature runs on your own provider API key. Senderz does not resell
AI tokens and there is no AI plan to buy. Your provider bills you directly for
what you use.
Before anything works
You need one AI provider connected. Until then, every AI control in the product shows a short “Connect an AI provider in Settings” message instead of running.Connect your AI provider
Choose Claude, Gemini, OpenAI or a compatible endpoint, paste your key, test
it and pick a model. Owners and admins only.
Where each AI feature lives
AI assistant
AI assistant
Sidebar → Senderz AI. A chat that reads your contacts, campaigns,
automations, segments, analytics, deliverability, wallet and store data, and
can create and change things for you. It asks before anything destructive or
costly.You can also reach it from the Marketing Agent button in the top bar,
from the command palette (“Ask the Marketing Agent”), from the Ask AI
card on a contact profile, and from the Ask AI about your analytics bar
on the Analytics page. Those last two open the chat with your question
already filled in.Read the full assistant page
Build a segment from a description
Build a segment from a description
Segments page, and inside the campaign wizard audience step and the
automation segment picker. Describe the audience in plain language and get a
filter you can review before saving.The builder checks your real tags, consent counts and predictive tiers
before it proposes anything, and tells you in the caveats when part of your
request cannot be expressed as a filter.See Segments.
Write and rewrite content
Write and rewrite content
- Generate with AI in the email builder writes a full email from a one-line brief, matched to your brand kit.
- Write with AI does the same for an SMS body.
- Suggest with AI rewrites the text you have selected. It appears on the campaign wizard, the automation message panel, contact notes, popup copy and inside the rich text toolbar.
Generate images
Generate images
Any image field that opens the image picker has a Generate tab. Describe
the image, choose square, portrait or landscape, and the result is saved
into your media library.Only OpenAI and Gemini can generate images. On a Claude connection the tab
tells you so instead of failing.
Brand voice and business summary
Brand voice and business summary
Media → Brand. Generate with AI turns a sample of your own writing
into voice rules, and drafts a short summary of your business. Both are then
used to ground later copy generation, so generated email matches how you
actually write.
Draft a coupon
Draft a coupon
Products → Coupons. The Draft with AI bar takes a sentence such as
“15% off orders over 200 shekels until the end of the month” and pre-fills
the create form. Nothing is saved until you confirm.See Coupons.
Popup copy suggestions
Popup copy suggestions
Popup builder. Heading, subheading and button fields carry a suggest
control that offers alternative wording for that one field.See Popups.
A/B test suggestions
A/B test suggestions
A/B tests page. Suggests tests worth running based on what it can see in
your workspace.
Pre-send checks
Pre-send checks
Ask the assistant to audit a campaign, an automation, a template or an SMS
before you send. The checks themselves are deterministic, not guesses: a
missing template, an empty audience, an unverified sending domain, a
schedule in the past, a missing subject line, images with no alt text,
broken or insecure links, SMS credit cost, an automation with no trigger or
no message step.These checks currently run through the assistant chat. There is no separate
audit button on the campaign, template or automation screens yet.
The AI planner
There is a marketing calendar planner at the address/ai/planner. You describe what you want to promote and a date range, and it drafts a calendar of campaigns you can accept one by one into normal drafts.
What AI costs you
Senderz adds nothing to the price. You pay your provider for the tokens each request uses.- Usage this month in the AI configuration panel shows estimated cost, total tokens and a per-model breakdown for the current calendar month.
- That figure is calculated from published model rates. It is an estimate, not an invoice. Your provider’s own billing dashboard is the authoritative number.
- If you used a model with no published rate, the card says so, and your real total is higher than shown.
What AI is never allowed to do
Every AI action runs through the same code as the equivalent button in the interface. That means the rules you rely on still apply, whether a person or the assistant started the action.
AI never sends a campaign on its own. It creates drafts and, when you ask it to, schedules one. The send pipeline decides what actually goes out.
See Consent, Quiet hours and Shabbat and Israeli compliance.
When AI stops working
If your provider rejects a request, Senderz stops. There is no shared fallback key, by design. You get a notification in the bell naming the cause: key rejected, no key on file, key lacks access, rate limited, out of quota, or endpoint unreachable. The connection badge in Settings shows the same state with your provider’s own response quoted.These are in-app notifications only. Senderz does not email you when a key
fails, so check the bell if AI has gone quiet. Everything else in Senderz keeps
working normally: campaigns, automations and sending are unaffected.
