What it's like

Talk to your pipeline instead of clicking through it.

Ask a question, get an answer from your live account. When you allow it, your agent can handle the reply too.

Ask

Ask about your pipeline in plain English.

Who replied, what they asked for, which links went live, how your reply rate is trending. Your agent checks your live account and answers, no dashboard digging.

How many prospects replied this week, and which ones are worth a follow-up?

Pulled your reply rate

Four replies this week, a 12.4% reply rate. Two are ready to move: saastr.com asked for the section draft, and hackernoon.com wants your author bio.

Act, with your OK

Let it write the reply. You press send.

Once a site owner replies, your agent can draft the answer and send it from your own inbox, in the same thread. It can also mark a deal won or stop outreach to someone.

Reply from your own inbox

Hi Mark, thanks for getting back to me. I'll have the section draft over to you by Friday.

Your rules

You decide what each agent is allowed to do.

Every agent gets its own key. Keep it look-only, or turn sending on for the one you trust. Revoke any key in one click the moment you stop using it.

What your agent can do

It sees what you see. It only acts when you let it.

Looking things up works with any key. Taking action needs a key you created with sending turned on.

Look things up

Always on

  • Your sites and pages

    Plan, tracked sites, keywords, competitors, and the pages you promote.

  • Opportunities

    Every prospect with its status, contact, email thread, and follow-ups.

  • Backlinks you've won

    Which links are live, and when one changes or disappears.

  • Results

    Reply rate, links won, and how discovery is running each day.

Take action

Only if you allow it

  • Reply to a prospect

    Sends from your own inbox, in the same email thread.

  • Mark a deal won or in progress

    Or dismiss one you're not pursuing.

  • Stop outreach to someone

    Any follow-ups not yet sent are paused.

  • Edit an email before it goes out

    Rewrite the subject or body of any email that hasn't been sent yet.

  • Fix what you're promoting

    Change the pages and keywords discovery uses to find new prospects.

Apps like Claude Desktop also ask you to approve each action before it runs.

The rules it can't break

Built into Mentiohunt itself, so they hold no matter which agent you connect.

  • Your inbox only

    Replies go out from the mailbox you connected, never a shared one.

  • Only after they reply

    It can't cold-email anyone. First emails stay with your outreach sequence.

  • Speed limits

    Up to 10 replies an hour, and 2 a day to the same prospect.

  • Opt-outs respected

    Anyone who asked not to be contacted stays uncontacted.

  • Everything is logged

    Every reply, email edit, and status change is recorded against the key that made it.

  • Your account only

    An agent only ever sees your own data, nobody else's.

How it works

Three steps, no code

No sales call, no config files to edit by hand. Your agent reads our setup guide and does the installing for you.

01

Create a key

In Settings → Agents, create a key and name it after the agent that will use it. Tick "sending enabled" only if you want it to be able to reply for you.

02

Paste one sentence into your agent

Your agent reads Mentiohunt's setup guide, asks for the key, installs everything, and offers to add the backlink building skill.

03

Ask it anything

Who replied, what they want, which links went live, how your reply rate is trending. Your agent answers from your live account.

What you need

A Pro or Agency plan (the free trial counts)
An AI agent like Claude Code, Claude Desktop, or Codex
A key from Settings → Agents, which your agent will ask for

What you get

Answers about your pipeline without opening the dashboard
Replies to prospects from your own inbox, if you allow it
The backlink building skill for negotiating with site owners
Access you can switch off anytime
Connect my agent

Included on Pro and Agency, and during the 7-day trial

Free add-on skill

A negotiator for when they write back.

Mentiohunt gets you the first reply. After that, site owners ask for money, a link back, or a guest post. The backlink building skill teaches your agent how to handle that conversation with you.

Your agent offers to install it during setup. Nothing extra to paste.

Read the skill

  1. 1. Checks the site is worth it

    Reads the actual page, not just the domain rating, and flags thin or spammy sites.

  2. 2. Works out what they want

    Payment, a link back, a guest post, a product swap, or a polite no.

  3. 3. Recommends a move

    Accept, counter, or walk away, weighing fit against the ask.

  4. 4. Drafts your reply

    In their tone, with a counter-offer your product can actually deliver.

  5. 5. Waits for your OK

    Nothing is sent until you approve that exact message.

FAQ

Common questions

Everything you need to know before getting started.

What can my AI agent do once it's connected?
It can look up everything your dashboard shows: your sites, opportunities and their email threads, backlinks you're tracking, and results like reply rate and links won. If you create a key with sending enabled, it can also reply to prospects who have written back, mark an opportunity won, in progress, or dismissed, and pause outreach to someone.
Can my agent send emails on its own?
Only if you create a key with sending enabled, and even then within strict rules: it only replies to prospects who have already replied to you, only from your own connected inbox, and at most 10 replies an hour and 2 a day per prospect. It can't send a first cold email. Apps like Claude Desktop also ask you to approve each send.
What is the backlink building skill?
A free add-on that teaches your agent how to handle a site owner's reply. It checks whether their site is actually a good fit, works out what they want in exchange for the link, suggests whether to accept, counter, or decline, and drafts the reply. It never sends anything without your approval. Your agent offers to install it during setup.
Which AI apps work with it?
Claude Code, Claude Desktop, Codex, and Gemini CLI, plus other apps that can connect to an MCP server. Browser-only apps that need a one-click sign-in, like ChatGPT, aren't supported yet.
Is this a backlink index like Ahrefs or Semrush?
No. Mentiohunt doesn't look up backlinks for any domain you type in. It gives your agent the opportunities, outreach, and results already generated for your own account, the same data your dashboard shows.
Do I need to be a developer to set it up?
No. You paste one sentence into your agent. It reads Mentiohunt's setup guide, asks for your key, and installs everything itself. If it can't edit files on your computer, it gives you the exact text to paste instead.
Is there a regular API for my own scripts?
Yes. The same key works with Mentiohunt's REST API, which covers the same data and actions as the MCP server. Settings → Agents shows an example request to get you started.
Is it included in my plan?
Yes, on the Pro and Agency plans, including the 7-day trial. Create keys from Settings → Agents.
How do I turn access off?
Revoke the key in Settings → Agents and the agent loses access immediately. Keys are shown once when you create them, and Mentiohunt only stores a scrambled version, so nobody can read them back later.

Give your pipeline an agent that works it with you.

Paste one sentence into Claude or Codex, and ask about your replies, opportunities, and results from your own account. Let it handle the replies when you're ready.
