Everything Issue Mint does
One tool for the whole job: gathering the links, putting the issue together, sending it, publishing the archive, telling you what people clicked, and selling the sponsorship that pays for it.
The composer
Most newsletter tools hand you a blank canvas and a row of drag-and-drop blocks. That is the wrong shape for an issue made of links, headings and short commentary, so this is built differently.

How sending works
There is nothing to connect, nothing to configure and nothing to paste anywhere. Write your first issue this afternoon and send it to real people. The rest of this page is what happens underneath, for anybody who wants to know.

Sponsorships
Sponsorship is how most curated newsletters make money, and most of them are running it on a spreadsheet and a long email thread. This replaces both.

Link tracking
Opens stopped meaning much once Apple began loading images on readers' behalf. Clicks are the honest signal for a curated newsletter, because a click means somebody wanted the thing you recommended.

Your public archive
A newsletter that only exists in inboxes is invisible to everybody who has not already subscribed. Every past issue is a page that can be found, linked to and shared, which makes the archive the part of this that keeps working while you sleep.

And the rest
Your readers
Bring a list across from a spreadsheet with the columns matched up, confirm new signups automatically, unsubscribe in one tap, filter by who is still reading, and delete somebody properly when they ask.
The browser button
Save whatever you are reading into your library, or straight into the issue you are working on, with the title and description already filled in. Right-click any link to add it without leaving the page.
Scheduling
Send now, or set it for your usual slot in your own timezone. A scheduled issue stays editable right up until sending starts.
Several newsletters
Run more than one from a single account. The price looks at everyone reading you in total rather than charging you again per newsletter.
Reader submissions
A form on your website feeds the same library your own saved links go into, and reaches you as one summary a day rather than one email per link.
Getting into the inbox
We do the sending, on a setup that is already warmed up and looked after. Addresses that bounce or complain are dropped automatically so you never mail them twice, and if you move to your own sending account we generate the records that prove your email is really from you and keep checking they are still in place.
