Onboarding wizard

After you sign up and verify your email, HeyNews walks you through a short onboarding wizard.

Step 1: Connect your newsletter

If you already send newsletters through beehiiv, Kit, or another platform with a public archive, you can connect it here. HeyNews will:

  • Check the connection
  • Show how many past issues it found, when that information is available
  • Save the source for training after your trial starts

This step comes before trial checkout so HeyNews knows which past issues to learn from. If one source cannot be checked, choose another option such as a public archive, RSS URL, or CSV export.

Step 2: Start your trial

After your source is saved, add a payment method in Stripe. Your 14-day trial starts after checkout, and HeyNews starts preparing your AI Writer from the source you selected.
