The problem it solves

You rely on a piece of software or open-source project and need to know when a new version comes out, but you don't have time to check the release page every day. Missing an update can mean missing important fixes or new features.

Who it fits

Developers, IT managers, or product teams who track software releases they depend on.

How it works

  1. Once a day, the Github repository is checked for a new release
  2. The release notes are converted into readable formatting
  3. An email with the release details is sent to your inbox
What you get

New software releases you learn about immediately

You get an email the same day a GitHub project you rely on ships a new release, with the notes already nicely formatted for you.

What you get

An email notification with the details of the newest software release.

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.

That is what a Fractional Chief AI Officer figures out with you, before anyone writes a line of code.
