InstaBrief · newsletter make-up desk

One link in. An issue in your voice out.

Paste a URL, an article or an RSS feed. Out comes the summary, the headline, and a draft in the shape your sending platform wants.

Anyone can paste the first paragraph and call it curation. A summary that sounds like everyone else's newsletter is worse than a bare link — so the thing that matters is whether the copy comes back sounding like you. Same article, two newsletters, two different clippings.

CUT
For · a food-industry brief

Protein costs just fell off a cliff

→ Beehiiv block

For · an investor digest

An 80% cost curve, and who eats it

→ Mailchimp block

Illustrative. One source, two voices — the sample URL is a placeholder, not a real article InstaBrief has read.

On the desk

What gets cut, and what gets kept.

Pre-launch. This is the intended shape, stated as design rather than as a shipped feature list.

01

It reads the whole piece

Then writes the one claim worth a subscriber's attention — not the opening paragraph, which is usually throat-clearing.

DESIGNED
02

In your voice, learned from your issues

The whole point. A generic summary is worse than a bare link, because a bare link at least does not pretend to be you.

DESIGNED
03

Formatted for where you actually send

Mailchimp, Beehiiv and ConvertKit each want a different shape. The draft arrives in that shape rather than in a clipboard.

PLANNED
04

A feed at a time, not a link at a time

Point it at an RSS feed and the whole week's candidates come back cut, so the work is choosing rather than summarising.
