Introducing Merge’s Universal Context Layer. It substantially decreases token cost while increasing accuracy. Every company uses AI wrong: Say your designer makes a deck using Claude. They teach Claude your design systems and typography. Now a Marketing hire makes a deck. None of the information your designer taught Claude gets passed over… why? Merge fixes this: All knowledge and memory across your entire company gets stored inside our context layer. When someone on the org teaches Al, that skill lives across the entire organization instead of staying locked in their session. Your AI runs faster, cheaper, and with more accuracy. You don’t have to switch systems, incur more costs, or retrain anyone on your team, Merge runs invisibly in the background. Book a demo here: https://www.merge.dev/merge-for-workforce-get-in-touch
