Weekly link roundup from your saved bookmarks

You save interesting links all week. On Friday, this drafts the roundup section of your newsletter with one line on each.

InputBookmarks tagged 'newsletter' (Raindrop, Pocket alternative or a Notion DB)
ToolsRaindrop.io or Notion, Make, an AI step, your email tool
TimeSetup about 40 minutes.

The n8n file has three nodes (trigger, AI step, output) plus a read-me note. We check that its JSON structure is valid, but we haven't run every file in a live n8n instance, so test it with sample data before you switch it on.

Steps

  1. Friday schedule: fetch this week's tagged links and your notes.
  2. AI step writes one line per link from your note plus the page title.
  3. Paste the result into a draft in your newsletter tool.

The prompt

For each link, write one sentence (under 25 words) on why it's worth reading, based on my note. Keep my opinions; don't add new claims about the content. Links: {{items}}

Sample run

Example input (written for illustration)
Link + my note: 'good teardown of pricing pages, esp. the bit on annual toggles'
Example output (shows the format, not a real log)
A sharp teardown of SaaS pricing pages. Read it for the section on why annual/monthly toggles change what people choose.

Where it breaks

  • No note, bland line. If you saved it without a note, the line will be generic. Leave a five-word note when you save.
  • Anything customer-facing or money-related. Keep a human approval step until you've watched a few dozen runs and trust it.

Tool names and pricing change often, so check each tool's current docs before you build. Times on this page are estimates, not measurements.
