What it is

HeyNews is an AI newsletter writer for Kit (formerly ConvertKit) creators. It connects to your Kit account with OAuth, trains a Voice Profile from your recent broadcasts, watches the sources you trust (RSS feeds, sites, X, Reddit, saved articles), and drafts your next broadcast in your voice for you to review and send. Plans start at $39/mo with a 14-day free trial.

HeyNews does not replace Kit. Kit stays where your audience, forms, sequences, deliverability, and sending live. HeyNews is the production layer that turns your past broadcasts plus your sources into a draft that already sounds like you.

How HeyNews works with Kit

Connect Kit from HeyNews or the Kit App Store: Connect Kit from Connections & imports in HeyNews, or find HeyNews in the Kit App Store and install it there. Kit asks you to approve access, then sends you back. The connection reads the broadcasts you have already sent so HeyNews can learn how you write to your audience.
Build your Voice Profile from real broadcasts: HeyNews studies your tone, recurring sections, calls to action, and the way you turn ideas into emails. Real Kit broadcasts beat any prompt-engineered "style guide".
Add the sources behind your next broadcast: RSS feeds, websites, subreddits, YouTube channels, saved articles, and public profiles on X, LinkedIn, Instagram, TikTok, Threads, Facebook, and Bluesky. HeyNews monitors them and surfaces a ranked shortlist of stories before you start writing.
Let response data shape future drafts: HeyNews reads which broadcasts and links your Kit subscribers opened and clicked, and uses that when it scores stories and writes subject lines. No manual tagging.
Review the draft, then send from Kit: Drafts live in HeyNews with subject line and preview text options. Edit until it sounds right, copy the finished version into Kit's broadcast editor, and send it yourself.
Run multiple Kit accounts side by side: From Starter up, each Kit account or publication keeps its own Voice Profile, sources, and draft history. Useful if you run a personal newsletter and client broadcasts.

What to expect today

HeyNews creates the draft. It does not auto-send for you. Today you review inside HeyNews, then copy the finished version into Kit and send it yourself. That keeps final editorial control with you and means a misclick can never push a draft to your list.

Why it feels different for Kit operators

Trained on broadcasts you actually sent, not a style description: Kit's built-in AI helps with rewrites and quick generations. HeyNews learns your voice from your recent broadcasts and picks stories from all the sources you follow, so the first draft sounds like you and covers what your readers care about.
A shortlist of stories before you start writing: Kit is where you send. HeyNews scans your sources overnight and surfaces a ranked shortlist of stories that match what your audience actually reads, so Sunday is not "what should I write about?".
Drafts shaped by what Kit subscribers engaged with: HeyNews reads your Kit opens and clicks and uses them when it scores stories and writes subject lines, so it is not starting from zero each week.
Separate Voice Profiles for separate broadcasts: A weekly newsletter, a monthly customer update, and a launch announcement should not read the same. HeyNews keeps separate Voice Profiles, sources, and draft histories for each.
Subject lines and preview text included: Each draft includes subject line and preview text options, so the broadcast is closer to ready by the time you open Kit. No second tool, no second prompt.

Use cases

The Kit creator with a weekly broadcast and 30k subscribers

You run a weekly broadcast on Kit Pro to 30,000 subscribers. Writing it eats your Sunday. HeyNews drafts the issue overnight, picks the stories, and your Sunday morning becomes a 30-minute review instead of a four-hour write.

The course creator with sequences plus a weekly broadcast

Kit handles the evergreen sequences that warm leads. HeyNews handles the weekly broadcast that keeps your list awake, so the broadcast does not become the thing that slips when you launch.

The agency operator running multiple Kit accounts

You run client newsletters across three Kit accounts. HeyNews keeps each client voice, source list, and draft history separate. Switching between them is one click, and no client ever sees another client's tone.

The operator who left Substack for Kit and lost the AI workflow

Substack did not give you a real AI drafting workflow, so you had been pasting into ChatGPT. HeyNews brings that drafting workflow to the platform you already moved to, without copy-pasting your archive into a system prompt every week.

FAQ

Does HeyNews replace Kit?

No. Kit stays where your audience, forms, sequences, and deliverability live. HeyNews is the production layer that drafts each broadcast from your past sends plus your sources, so the page you copy into Kit is already written in your voice.

Does HeyNews push broadcasts to Kit automatically?

Not today. Drafts live inside HeyNews until you decide they are ready. When you finalize one, copy it into Kit's broadcast editor and send it from there. That keeps you in editorial control and means a misclick never sends to your list.

Will HeyNews handle Kit sequences (drips)?

Not today. HeyNews is built around the broadcast loop: regular newsletters drafted from sources and your archive. Sequences and drip emails need different mechanics, so Kit handles those and HeyNews handles the broadcast.

Which Kit plans work with HeyNews?

HeyNews works with Kit's paid plans, including a Kit trial.

How does voice training actually work?

HeyNews reads the Kit broadcasts you have already sent and extracts the patterns that make your writing yours: tone, structure, recurring phrases, calls to action, and the way you explain stories. The Voice Profile is the input to every future draft.

What data does HeyNews read from Kit?

Past broadcasts for voice training, plus open and click signals so future drafts can lean toward formats and topics that work. HeyNews does not read subscriber email addresses, does not store your audience list, and does not send anything on your behalf.

Can I disconnect Kit any time?

Yes, from Connections & imports in HeyNews. Disconnecting stops new updates from Kit but keeps your existing Voice Profile, sources, and saved drafts inside HeyNews so you can keep working without losing context.

What is the free trial?

14 days or 5 generated issues, whichever ends first. A payment method is required so accounts cannot be recycled. Cancel any time during the trial and you are not charged.
