How Engineering Companies Can Create a Newsletter in less than 5 Minutes with AI

Let’s be honest—most newsletters are bloated, irrelevant, or just plain boring. At Singularity, we needed one that actually worked for engineers. So we asked ourselves: What if Singularity could create a newsletter we'd actually want to read—and automate the process? So we built a daily system that curates, drafts, and publishes a newsletter in under 5 minutes. Here’s exactly how we do it.

 Our Step-by-Step Workflow

1. Curate from Trusted Sources

   Start by pulling 2–3 recent, high-signal updates from newsletters engineers already respect. At Singularity, our go-to sources are:

   • Superhuman – for product-led AI updates

   • Forward Future – for breakthrough tools and prompt workflows

   • The Noodle Network – for experimental and community-tested AI use cases

   Skim these newsletters daily and select only the pieces that would genuinely matter to a technical audience.

2. Add a Real Case Study

   This is where your own work comes in. We include one recent study from our Wix blog—usually a breakdown of how we applied AI in a real client or internal workflow. This grounds the newsletter in credibility and adds an engineering-specific insight that pure AI news sources can’t offer.

   Tip: You can swap this with any internal asset—case studies, tool experiments, even Slack screenshots that show results.

3. Draft with GPT

   Once we have our external sources and internal material, we paste all the links into ChatGPT using a structured prompt. The prompt tells GPT:

   • What the newsletter is for (engineers)

   • How to format it (skimmable, short paragraphs, useful takeaways)

   • Tone and voice (clear, no fluff)

   In seconds, GPT returns a polished first draft that we rarely have to rewrite.

4. Publish via Mailchimp

   With the draft ready, we move to Mailchimp. Here’s where formatting matters:

   • Paste the copy and adjust headings, font spacing, and link embeds

   • Review everything for broken links, grammar, and visual flow

   • Send a preview to yourself, then hit publish

   This final step ensures your content looks just as clean as it reads.

Engineers don’t need another inbox filler—they need high-signal, low-noise content that respects their time. By combining trusted AI sources, real internal wins, and the AI, this workflow delivers exactly that.

It’s repeatable and you can scale this system across teams, repurpose content across platforms, and still publish in under 5 minutes a day.
