How a letter is sent
First, your assistant hands over the addresses and the letter.
We check the format and the address window (DIN 5008) and choose the postage by size and destination.
Then you see the preview and the price.
The letter appears with a Deutsche Post specimen stamp. Nothing is charged up to here.
Finally, you approve it.
On our page, not in the chat. Without a balance you topped up yourself, an assistant cannot buy anything.

What the service does
Registered mail with tracking
Every registered letter gets a tracking number. We fetch the Deutsche Post status and show it to your assistant and on the status page.
Approval or balance
You approve each letter yourself, or your assistant orders from a balance you topped up. What is bought is exactly the version shown in the preview.
Recipients in 218 countries
Domestic postage for recipients in Germany, international postage for everyone else. Addresses follow Universal Postal Union rules, and the preview shows the transit time.
A complete record
Every step of a letter is written to an append-only log. Checksums prove which document was sent.
Data protection under the GDPR
Documents and addresses are deleted after fixed periods, or immediately on request. Processing takes place in Germany.
Delivered by Deutsche Post
Every letter runs through Deutsche Post's sorting centres and is postmarked there like any other letter.
Connect
The service speaks the Model Context Protocol. Any assistant or app that supports remote MCP servers can send letters, for example Claude as a custom connector.
Sign-in uses OAuth 2.1 with PKCE. Clients register themselves, and each account sees only its own letters. For your own agents there are API keys that work as bearer tokens.

Questions
Can Claude, ChatGPT or another AI assistant send a real paper letter by mail?
Yes. Connect SOMMON Office as a remote MCP server at https://office.sommon.de/mcp. The assistant writes the letter with you and shows a preview with the price. You approve and pay in the browser, or the assistant pays from a balance you topped up, within a daily limit. Deutsche Post delivers the letter, as ordinary or registered mail.
Which countries can I send letters to?
Germany and 217 other countries, every destination on the Deutsche Post country list except those where Deutsche Post has suspended letter mail. The preview states the expected transit time; within Europe it is usually two to eight working days.
Can I send letters to other countries?
Yes, to 217 countries: invoices and payment reminders to customers, letters to authorities, embassies and consulates, contract notices and personal letters. The assistant can write in the recipient's language, and the address is laid out according to the rules of the destination country. Einschreiben International adds a tracking number.
I live outside Germany. Can I use it?
Yes. Your letter is sent by Deutsche Post with German postage. The return address names you care of our address in Germany, so an undeliverable letter comes back to us and we tell you. Self-printing is only available to senders in Germany.
Can I write to an authority or cancel a contract by letter?
Yes. Tell your assistant who the letter is for and what it is about, for example a tax office, an immigration office, an insurer or a gym. Send it as registered mail when a deadline applies: you get a tracking number and documented delivery. Some terminations legally need a handwritten signature, for example certain employment or tenancy terminations. Automatically sent letters carry no handwritten signature, so for those the letter has to be signed by hand.
What does a letter cost?
A letter of up to three pages within Germany costs €2.49 including postage, sent for you, or €1.49 if you print it yourself. To other countries it costs €2.79. As registered mail it costs €4.84 within Germany and €6.49 abroad. Longer letters cost more; paying from a balance saves €0.20 per letter. The preview shows the final price before you pay.
Is Einschreiben the same as certified mail or recorded delivery?
It is the German equivalent. Within Germany, Einschreiben Einwurf has a tracking number and Deutsche Post documents delivery to the letterbox; a return receipt signed by the recipient is available as an option. Einschreiben International has a tracking number too, though for many countries tracking ends when the letter leaves Germany.
Which languages can the letter be in?
The service typesets letters in German, English, French, Spanish, Italian, Dutch, Polish and Portuguese, with the date format and closing of that language. A finished PDF can be in any language. Addresses are laid out according to the rules of the destination country.
How fast does a letter arrive?
Within Germany, 95 percent of letters are delivered within four working days after payment and 99 percent within five. For other countries the preview states the transit time of the destination.
How is VAT handled?
We pay the Deutsche Post postage in your name and pass it on without VAT. Our service fee includes 19% German VAT. Businesses in other EU countries with a valid VAT ID and businesses outside the EU pay the fee net; the invoice then shows the reverse charge.
Can an assistant buy without my approval?
Only from a balance you topped up yourself, and only up to the daily limit. Without a balance, the assistant creates a payment link and you pay for the letter yourself on our page.
What happens to my data?
The document is deleted 30 days after the last step, the addresses after 120 days, or immediately on request. Only order records without names or content are kept, as tax law requires. Everything is processed on servers in Germany under the GDPR.
Anyone can sign up. Create an account, connect your assistant, and your first letter can be on its way in a few minutes.
