Real fuzzy matching (not just exact), an AI reviewer for the borderline cases, and a non-destructive, fully reversible merge. Built for monday.com CRM & leads boards.
monday's built-in merge is exact-match only and can overwrite data. DedupeGuard fixes both.
For the pairs that aren't clear-cut — a nickname vs. a full name, a shared phone but different email — an AI judges whether they're really the same person or business, picks which record to keep, and says why in one plain sentence. It runs on monday's own AI via our stateless relay (no third-party AI, nothing stored — see the privacy policy), and the AI calls are currently billed to us, not your credits; you still approve every merge.
Catches "Dana Cohen" vs "dana cohen", name+phone vs name+email, Gmail dot/plus variants, and different phone formats — with a confidence score and a reason for every match.
The record you keep is filled only on its empty fields. Existing values are always preserved.
The duplicate is moved to a "DedupeGuard · Merged" group, not deleted — and, where the app has the updates:write scope, an audit note records exactly what happened.
Any merge can be undone in one click: the record moves back to its original group, data intact.
