US 2026/0099552 A1 · Computer-Implemented Methods and Systems for Generative Document Merge

Abstract

A computer-implemented method and system for recursive generative content generation processes merge templates containing multiple elements within document creation workflows. The method includes receiving a merge template comprising a plurality of elements, and for each element determining whether it is an action definition. If so, the method applies the action definition to generate output by providing a prompt to a language model, and inserts the generated output into a merged document. If not an action definition, the method determines whether the element is a merge field, obtains its value and inserts it into the merged document. Otherwise, the method copies the element into the merged document. The system enables sophisticated document personalization by combining traditional mail merge functionality with AI-driven content generation capabilities.

Dependent claims

A method performed by at least one computer processor executing computer program instructions stored on at least one non-transitory computer-readable medium, the method comprising:

(A) receiving a merge template comprising a plurality of elements;
(B) for each element in the plurality of elements:
(B)(1) determining whether the element is an action definition;
(B)(2) if the element is determined to be an action definition:
(B)(2)(a) applying the action definition to generate output, comprising providing a prompt specified by the action definition to a language model;
(B)(2)(b) inserting the generated output into a merged document;
(B)(3) if the element is not determined to be an action definition, then determining whether the element is a merge field;
(B)(4) if the element is determined to be a merge field:
(B)(4)(a) obtaining a value for the merge field;
(B)(4)(b) inserting the obtained value into the merged document;
(B)(5) if the element is not determined to be a merge field:
(B)(5)(a) copying the element into the merged document.
