| I built this to solve my own newsletter overload problem. Turns out there are similar tools that I found after I basically launched (Meco, Mailbrew), but turns out mine is a bit simpler and less opinionated about how you consume content. Core features: - Three ingestion methods: auto-forward from Gmail, manual forwarding, or sign up with your dedicated email address - Web dashboard to browse all newsletters in one place - Scheduled email digests (configurable times, skips if nothing new) - Save/star functionality for read-later I've been using it for a few weeks, and it's really helped me. I set mine to arrive at 8am and 1pm. The save feature is nice, too. Tech: Django, OpenAI for summarization, hosted on Hetzner. Email parsing is surprisingly gnarly—lots of edge cases with different newsletter formats.
Free for now, likely paid tiers eventually. Feedback welcome! Link: https://hiddensignal.app Screenshot of a recent digest: https://imgur.com/a/tuTBYKV |
You should subscribed to a compendium of newsletters that we users subscribe to and then let us choose with checkboxes, which newsletters are ours and the ones we wished to use your service. You could have a "request your newsletter here" field also on your website. That would be a sane profit making service.
