Put out a newsletter every week without burning out

“My newsletter takes a whole day each week.”

AI can collect links, summarize them, draft sections in your voice and track what readers click. You add your take and hit send.

Fix it yourself in 3 steps

Set up where ideas go during the week (a doc, a label, or saved links).
Each week, ask the AI to summarize the best items and draft the issue.
Add your opinion, edit, and send from your newsletter tool yourself.

Copy this prompt

Draft this week's newsletter for [audience] from these links and notes: [list]. For each item: a headline, 2-sentence summary, and why it matters. Write an intro in my voice (examples: [past issue]) with [MY TAKE] placeholders. Don't schedule or send it. Stop after the draft.

Fill in the [brackets]. Each prompt says when the AI should stop, so it doesn't wander off.
