Local newsletter operators are all fighting the same grind: finding enough events, checking sources, staying consistent, and still having time left to grow the audience and sell sponsors. LNB starts by taking the research burden off your plate.

Built by a local newsletter operator for local newsletter operators
Built for the repeatable work that happens before every send.
Tell LNB what towns, neighborhoods, or metro area your newsletter covers. Add the local sources you already trust.
Pick your date range and run the research. LNB turns local calendars, venue pages, and event sources into organized leads.
Review source-backed event cards, click through to verify, then export the list into the newsletter tool you already use.

The weekly scramble
With LNB
A repeatable workflow
Operators do not burn out because they hate their town. They burn out because every issue starts with the same invisible work: hunt for events, verify details, organize links, then finally write.

Hit “Run” before you write
First we solve the research grind. Then we keep expanding toward the full local newsletter operating system.
Research is the wedge. Consistency, growth, and revenue are where this is going.
Replace the weekly routine of checking town sites, venue pages, calendars, and search results one by one.
Every useful event should come with a source URL, so you can verify details before it reaches your readers.
Save venue URLs, calendars, community pages, and other trusted local sources. Upload a list or add them manually.
Stay on schedule even when the research workload would normally steal your evening.
Trivia nights, farmers markets, open mics. Add them once, they appear every week automatically.
Export research into the platform you already use: beehiiv, Mailchimp, Substack, ConvertKit, Ghost, or anything else.
The goal is not another chatbot. The goal is a repeatable research workflow for people who have to publish again next week.

Local Newsletter Buddy
One workflow
Built around the operator workflow: leads, source links, verification, and export.
LNB is built to check the messy local web: your trusted source list, community calendars, venue pages, town sites, and other event sources that help uncover what is happening in your market.
The unlimited plan is built for a local newsletter market, whether that is one city, a cluster of suburbs, or a small metro area.
The unlimited plan is built so you can keep the source library your market needs: venues, community centers, town calendars, local organizations, and anything else that posts events.
Early access is focused on helping operators run research whenever they need fresh local event leads for their newsletter.
Any! Export as Markdown, CSV, or plain text and paste into beehiiv, Mailchimp, Substack, ConvertKit, Ghost, or any other tool.
We're opening access in waves. Join the waitlist, tell us whether you already publish, and we'll notify you when your market is ready for early access.
