AI-Powered Newsletter System
A lightweight automation platform for generating and sending AI-curated newsletters. The system pulls the latest news and trends using the Perplexity API and NewsAPI, formats them into clean HTML newsletters, and delivers them via Gmail automation. It also integrates with Google Sheets to manage subscribers, track engagement, and simplify campaign workflows. Designed for speed and simplicity, the project uses a Python backend with minimal front-end overhead, focusing on automation and reliability rather than complex UI frameworks.
