Daily Intelligence Brief

Know what changes your next move.

Paperboy turns the newsletters you forward, public news and research, tracked data, and selected GitHub repos into one evidence-linked morning edition: what changes a decision, what deserves inspection, and what can wait.

Your morning in four useful sections.

Model releases, a pricing shift, and one API deadline

Three evidence-linked changes, compressed into the context needed to start the day.

01 What changed across the sources you trust.

02 Which operating or product decision it touches.

03 What to inspect—and what deserves no time today.

A labeled example, not a customer result

Every section has a job. Every item earns the interruption.

Paperboy caps each section, cites the evidence, explains the fit, and is allowed to conclude “watch” or “do nothing.”

How it works

Choose the inputs. Receive one useful edition.

  1. 1

    Choose source lanes

    Forward newsletters, use the public catalog, and optionally select public repos.

  2. 2

    Set your interests

    Name the themes, systems, and watchlist that deserve morning attention.

  3. 3

    Rank and cap the edition

    News, research, data, and repo signals compete for limited space.

  4. Get the morning email

    Four short sections arrive with evidence—and silence when nothing clears the bar.

The permission line

Explicit inputs,
not ambient access.

Forward only the newsletters you choose. Public news and research come from a shared catalog. The optional GitHub App is read-only and limited to selected public repositories.

Local fixture only. This prototype does not contact GitHub or register an App.

One paid wedge, one open-source path

Pay for sharper decisions, not another summary.

The commercial test is whether one morning edition prevents a missed change, weak vendor choice, or wasted technical chase. Founding-pilot requests are open now; no card is required.

  • Public news, research, and data signals
  • Optional context from 1–5 public repos
  • Economic-decision lens for cost, dependency, vendor, and market changes

Run it yourself

Paperboy Open Source

Free MIT licensed

Bring Linux, Ollama, Discord, and your own operations. The current project remains separate from the hosted product.

Open the GitHub project

Before you connect anything

Reasonable questions, answered directly.

Does Paperboy need every repository?

No. GitHub is an optional source lane. If you use it, select one to five public repositories. This local preview uses fictional fixtures only.

Can Paperboy change my code?

No. The planned GitHub access is read-only. The product does not write code, issues, pull requests, or run autonomous actions.

Does Paperboy read my inbox?

No. Paperboy gives you a forwarding alias. It sees only messages you intentionally forward to that address. Gmail OAuth is excluded.

What arrives by email?

A capped edition: Today in 60 Seconds, Repo Radar, Research Worth Reading, and Watchlist / Do Nothing. Every substantive item links to evidence.

Is this the same as the open-source project?

The hosted concept builds on the project's scoring and digest ideas. The free self-hosted SQLite/systemd/Discord project remains available and separate.

What matters, delivered.

Turn the sources you already trust into one morning worth reading.
