The depth of a research firm. In minutes, not weeks.
Communications advisors charge thousands for research, polling, profiling, and messaging, with turnaround measured in weeks. Munshi delivers comparable depth in minutes, at a fraction of the cost.

Your work stays yours.
Most AI tools keep your inputs indefinitely and feed them back into their models. Munshi is built for people who handle sensitive strategy, opposition research, and unannounced messaging, so we do the opposite.
✓Deleted after 30 days
Your drafts and analyses are automatically and permanently deleted 30 days after you create them. Nothing lingers in an archive you can't see.
✓Never used to train models
We do not train any model on your drafts, research, or results, and our AI provider does not train on content sent through its API. Your strategy is not someone else's training data.
✓Never sold
Your data is never sold. It's encrypted in transit and at rest (AES-256), and shared only with the providers needed to run Munshi, never with advertisers or data brokers.
