Meow is a Mac app (Windows in preview) that answers your WeChat while you're away: from your own account, through WeChat for Mac, it replies to one-to-one chats and to group messages meant for you, and signs every reply as AI.
You can't pay inside WeChat
WeChat's built-in browser blocks Alipay, and a WeChat Pay QR code can't be scanned on the phone that shows it. Tap ··· at the top right and choose Open in Browser, or copy the link and open it on a computer.

Tell me when it opens
The Mac download and buying aren't open yet. Leave your email and we'll write the day they open.
Pay with WeChat Pay, Alipay or a card (UnionPay included). WeChat Pay shows a QR code to scan with your phone, so buying on a computer is easiest.
Card declined? Your bank probably blocks overseas online payments. Use Alipay or WeChat Pay instead.
Prices are in Chinese yuan (CNY). One-time payments; nothing renews automatically. 14-day refund, no questions asked (refund policy). Model usage is not included.
By buying you agree to the terms and the license agreement, and to your personal data being handled as the privacy policy describes.

At the Mac limit, activating another Mac deactivates the one used least recently. You can also deactivate a Mac yourself on the license page. A license is for your own WeChat account only.
Dry run first, then buy
Meow is a free download, and the dry run has no time limit: it reads your chats and drafts replies, shows every draft under Drafts in the menu, and sends nothing. A license unlocks one thing: actually sending the replies. Download and requirements
Model usage is extra (estimates)
The license doesn't include the AI model. You use your own API key and pay the provider (DeepSeek or Anthropic) directly for what you use. Meow never handles that money and adds nothing to it.
| Model | Estimate per month (typical user) | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| DeepSeek V4.1 Flash | About CNY 9–18 | The default for new installs. Off-peak to peak hours; DeepSeek caches automatically. |
| Claude Sonnet 5.5 | About CNY 151 (about USD 22) | Assumes prompt caching. |
| Claude Opus 5.5 | About CNY 294 (about USD 44) | Claude's default. Assumes prompt caching; about CNY 505 without. |
Estimates, not measurements. A typical user gets about 80 one-to-one messages a day plus about 200 a day across 3 followed groups. List prices as of October 2026, at USD 1 = CNY 6.733. Every check in a followed group is a request, billed even when it stays quiet.
Settings → Assistant in the app shows this month's requests, tokens and an estimated cost at list prices. Test the Key, on the same tab, sends one tiny request to check a key works. How to get an API key
Paying
- Methods: WeChat Pay, Alipay, or a card (UnionPay included). You pay on Stripe's checkout page; we never see your card number.
- WeChat Pay: checkout shows a QR code to scan with WeChat's Scan on your phone. Long-pressing the code or scanning it from your photos doesn't work, so buying on a computer is easiest.
- Inside WeChat: you can't pay from WeChat's built-in browser. Tap ··· at the top right and choose Open in Browser, or open this page on a computer.
- Card declined? Your bank probably blocks overseas online payments, or flagged a first payment to a merchant abroad. Use Alipay or WeChat Pay instead.
- Currency and tax: prices are in Chinese yuan (CNY). In the UK, checkout charges £2.99 / £19.99 / £49.99, and in the US $3.99 / $27.99 / $69.99. Elsewhere it may show your local currency; the checkout amount is what you pay. No VAT or other tax is added (the seller isn't VAT-registered).
- Receipts: Stripe emails a receipt to the address you enter at checkout. We can't issue Chinese VAT invoices (fapiao).
- Checkout won't load? Stripe's page can be slow on some networks. Switch between Wi-Fi and mobile data and try again.
After you pay
The page that follows payment shows your license key straight away. Copy it somewhere safe; we also email it as a backup. In the app, paste it into Settings → License and click Activate, then switch Dry run to Sending at the bottom of the menu. Activate your license key
Renewing, expiry and upgrades
- Renewing: click Buy or Renew… in the app, or renew on the license page. The days are added to your current end date, or to today if it has already passed. Your key stays the same.
- When it ends: nothing is charged. The app goes back to dry run and keeps your key, so a renewal picks up where you left off.
- Upgrading to lifetime: on the license page you can turn a 30-day or 365-day license into a lifetime one, same key. A lifetime license can't be extended with days.
Refunds
A full refund within 14 days of purchase, no questions asked: email support with your license key or the address you paid with. A refund revokes the key, and the app stops sending at its next license check. Refund policy
Not sold in the European Union yet
A seller outside the EU owes EU VAT from the very first sale, and we aren't set up for that yet, so at launch we don't sell to buyers in the European Union. The UK and everywhere else are unaffected. If you're in the EU, leave your email and we'll tell you when that changes.
