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!

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.

Edit on your edit: That's a great idea! I'll look into that. But, I promise, I don't want access to your email. You just auto-forward via filter or manually forward to HiddenSignal, or use the forwarding email I give you and sign up for things that way. Easy peasy, no access to your email account.
