Hi Product Hunt! Eunice and I are back with another launch. We have been heads down building this version of Kawara and are very excited for you to try it! Why we built this: As a Youtube creator herself (https://youtube.com/@joyfullenco...), Joy observed the creators who successfully build businesses from their audience do not solely rely on the algorithm, but are those who own their audience and use newsletters as their primary sales funnel. Ali Abdaal one of the world's most successful Youtube creators makes 60-80% of his sales via email newsletters. But most Youtube creators who are starting out do not have a full team or even the bandwidth to manage multiple side of the business. As creators ourselves, we know that making videos is the heart of the business and the work itself demands absolute focus. We want you to focus on that, and we are here to help with everything that powers the business beyond content itself. What Kawara does: If you’re a YouTube creator, you can sync your channel to automatically generate drafts from any video. Choose your preferred tone and use the snippet feature to create drafts that match your voice. If you use YouTube videos as reference material, you can pull in multiple videos and easily generate content snippets to build your draft. How to use Kawara: - Sync your channel - Or drop Youtube videos link to videos you like - Click on generate title and draft If you don’t like your draft, you can re-generate them. If you want your newsletter structure in a specific structure, take advantage of our snippet feature! How are we different: * Instead of simply summarizing each YouTube video, we generate content that is contextualized so your newsletter drafts feel purposeful * We’re committed to building a great tool designed for people who love Youtube, that’s at the heart of our mission. Current roadmap: - Currently we are platform agnostic. We are optimized for markdown compatibility so all you need to do is copy paste the draft generated to your platform of choice! - We are working on an integration with Kit next so you can preview your newsletter directly in Kit What we need from you: We poured our hearts into this and are fully bootstrapped. We need your help to grow! Drop questions, feedback, suggestions, use cases or features you would love to see below! Say hi on twitter /joygph or email us at joy@kawara.ai

This is exactly what I needed! As a small YouTuber, turning videos into newsletters was always overwhelming. Excited to try this! @Kawara

Eunice Tan

@nicoleastor 100%!! We've experienced this pain point ourselves as well so that was a huge motivation in building this! Excited for you to try it out! Let us know what you think :)

There's a PH code for 1 week off the plus plan. Feel free to DM us if you need anything more!

I have been testing this platform out for the last two weeks, and I'm impressed!
The team is passionate, and I think there is a platform that is needed for creators.

The platform isn't perfect for my workflow, but it has a lot of potential, and I continue to

look forward to seeing the updates.

Eunice Tan

@_thetoolkit Hey Doc! Thanks for the kind words, super appreciative of you trying it out and giving us feedback!! We're super bullish on the future of creators and we'll work hard to keep pushing out useful features, excited to keep you updates! :)

Charlene Chen

This tool is a game-changer for solo YouTube creators who lack the time or energy to craft newsletters for each video. Great find! How did you discover this niche? Are you a YouTube as well?

Eunice Tan

@charlenechen_123 Joy has been on Youtube for a while now! Gonna shameless plug her channel haha (https://www.youtube.com/@joyfullencounters), but that's how we started we started exploring how we could make the lives of the creator-entrepreneur much easier.

We started learning more about how useful newsletters were for creators, after talking to over 100 creator led businesses, and we're convinced that this could really help Youtube creators!

Try it out and let us know what you think! :) There's a PH code for 1 week off the plus plan. Feel free to DM us if you need anything more!

Love the idea behind Kawara — turning YouTube videos into newsletter drafts is such a smart way to stay consistent without the usual content struggle. Definitely something I’d try for repurposing content. Congrats on the launch 🚀

@naderikladious yeay thank you!!! :)

Lovely idea! I write newsletter for Jupitrr AI every week and if there is no product update, it becomes hard to write anything. You are solving a big problem for a lot of SaaS startups. Congrats on the launch @joyharjanto @nutboltz
