Too many Substack emails? Read them as one daily briefing
Combine your Substack newsletters into a single morning briefing, to read or to listen to. They land at a dedicated address: Gmail stays clean, and nobody asks to look inside your personal inbox.
- You subscribed to each writer one at a time, on purpose — and now the arrivals outrun the reading.
- The essays you were most excited about sit unread behind a "this weekend", buried by the next day's batch.
- Opening Gmail has started to feel like being behind on homework you assigned yourself.
Create your Substack inbox
Sign up and create an inbox for your subscriptions: it comes with its own email address, a real mailbox on Proofite's servers. Make one for everything or one per topic, each with its own name and color.
Point your subscriptions at it
Use that address for new sign-ups, or update the delivery email of the subscriptions you already have. For public publications, just paste the site address: the feed is found automatically.
Get one briefing each morning
Every morning the AI writes a single digest from everything that arrived. Read it in the app or listen to it as a podcast episode — and the feedback buttons tune each topic for tomorrow.
Why filters, labels and willpower don't fix it
Filters, labels and a separate "Newsletters" tab move the pile around — they don't shrink it. Every Substack issue is still its own email that wants its own open, skim and archive, and twenty subscriptions still mean twenty small decisions a day. Reading inside the Substack app doesn't solve it either: the app is built around discovery — new writers, video, conversations with creators — and its pages don't advertise any feature that condenses your subscriptions into one summary. Fair enough: that's a different job. But if what you want is your chosen sources, condensed, at an hour you pick, the problem isn't where the emails sit. It's their format.
A dedicated address changes the category of the problem
A dedicated address turns "too many Substack emails" from a discipline problem into a routing problem. In Proofite, every inbox — one for everything, or "Tech" apart from "Essays", each with a name and a color — comes with a real email address on our servers, something like [email protected]. Subscribe with that address, or move existing subscriptions over, and the flood changes address: issues pile up in a mailbox that exists precisely to be processed, not in the inbox where your boss and your bank write to you. For public Substacks there's an even shorter route — paste the publication's address and the feed is found automatically — and the same inbox also takes RSS feeds and standing web searches.
One digest that learns, topic by topic
The result is one briefing each morning, written by AI from everything that arrived, at the hour you choose — 07:00 by default. It isn't an engagement algorithm guessing from your scroll speed: it's a deterministic mechanism fed only by buttons you press, and every tap changes how tomorrow's digest gets written.
- "More technical" or "Simpler" — tone, set per topic
- More depth or shorter, theme by theme
- Mute a topic that's closed, follow one that's heating up
- Your writers stay the ones you chose; what adapts is the room each theme gets
Your Gmail is never part of the deal
Proofite never asks for access to your personal mailbox. There is no "Connect Gmail" step, no permission screen, no authorization to read anything of yours: the only mail we ever see is what arrives at the dedicated address you created for the purpose, on Proofite's own inbound mail server. Your personal inbox, your search history, your labels stay where they are. It's a structural choice, not a settings toggle — the product simply has no door into your mailbox. And if a few newsletters should keep landing in your personal inbox, keep them there: Proofite only handles what you deliberately route to it.
Read it, or put it in your ears
The same briefing can become a podcast episode with a natural voice — you set the length, from 2 to 20 minutes — with an opening jingle, a musical sting before the short items, and episode notes linking the sources. The Substack backlog turns into a commute: yesterday's issues, one episode, done before the office.
- Private podcast feed: add it to any podcast app you already use
- Voice and text in 5 languages: English, Italian, Spanish, German, French
- Push notification when the morning episode is ready
