If you had similar answers to above questions, then nice to meet you.
Several years ago, I was working in email marketing industry and noticed that email marketing is all about creating a mess in people's inbox by sending millions of copies. I was receiving 50+ emails daily and spending time to delete all one by one. Plus, there was no single way to manage all these subscriptions. Each of them has its own way to subscribe/unsubscribe. I decided to change everything for newsletters.

What we did?
We built a separate dedicated newsletter reading app with over 1000+ newsletter subscriptions in several different languages.
What we didn't do?
We don't give you an email address to sign up for newsletters you like. Newsletters are already here, you just need to tap on follow buttons.
What if they are not here?
You can send a feedback and we can add it for you if it's publicly available.
What if they are not public, or they're paid?
We don't connect to your inbox and retrieve them to provide more privacy for the users. However, you can create a forwarding rule in your inbox to automatically forward those newsletters us, and only you can read them on the app.
Can I share any newsletter including paid similar to forwarding it to someone else?
Yes, each newsletter has a unique UUID and we give you a URL to make it accessible.
Can I become a publisher?
Yes.
Can I collect followers through my website?
Yes, you can even embed our badges to collect followers from your website instantly.
Is there an editor to compose newsletters?
Not yet, however, we will implement the editor as soon as possible. Alternatively, you can send your composed newsletter by email, and it will be published on your profile.
Do I need to collect consents from followers?
No, they don't give you any information and they manage their data and communication preferences on the app. So authors and businesses are not responsible to act accordingly for GDPR. Plus, people manage their own consents to receive a notification or not.
Is this platform useful for physical store owners?
Yes, you can still collect followers and users will be able to see your store when they are near you. This can be used by shops to promote their products, services, meals without a commission to other companies. This feature is in roadmap.
Is there any fee for publishers?
There are several options for publishers. If you publish a weekly newsletter, it's free. Publishing newsletters more frequently has a cost. However, we offer first 1000 businesses and authors exclusive long term benefits.
After data breaches, unfortunately, personalized email marketing becomes personalized phishing, people are not safe in their inbox. By replacing newsletter strategy, you protect your fans, followers, and your business reputation from attacks.
Sending millions of copies to each inbox just for a newsletter isn't helpful for the world and when you consider 300 billions of email are sent-and-received daily, it also triggers global warming.
