The problem it solves

Keeping up with industry news means checking multiple sites every day, and manually pulling together a summary for your team or audience takes real time. You want a digest that just shows up in the inbox without the daily copy-paste work.

Who it fits

News curators, bloggers, or anyone who wants a recurring news summary delivered automatically.

How it works

  1. A schedule triggers the workflow at your chosen time
  2. The latest articles are pulled from your RSS feed
  3. Filters to newest items
  4. The articles are formatted into a clean, readable email
  5. The digest is sent straight to your Gmail inbox or your audience
What you get

Digests that appear without opening the feed

You get a nicely formatted digest of the latest articles from any RSS feed delivered straight to your inbox on schedule.

What you get

A formatted email digest of the latest articles, delivered on a set schedule.

What you need

A Gmail account.

We can build this. But should you?

The hard question is not how to build it. It is whether this is the right thing to build first.
