Signing up for HeyNews

Creating your account

Go to app.heynews.co. The sign-up form is shown on the first screen.

You can create an account three ways:

  • Email. Enter your email and click Create Account. HeyNews sends a verification link to your inbox. Click the link to activate your account.
  • Email and password. Click Or sign up with password, enter your email, create a password with at least 8 characters, uppercase and lowercase letters, a number, and a special character, then click Create Account. You'll still confirm the account from a verification email.
  • Google. Click Sign up with Google and authorize with your Google account. No verification email is needed.

During registration, you can also opt in to receive product tips and newsletter growth advice by keeping the newsletter checkbox selected. This is optional, and you can unsubscribe at any time.

If you start from a HeyNews pricing or offer link, the selected plan, billing cycle, and discount code stay with your signup. If the discount cannot be used, checkout still opens normally so you can continue or enter another code.

Already have an account?

If you try to sign up with an email that's already registered, HeyNews shows a "Welcome Back" screen with a button to send a magic-link sign-in email to that address. No lost password resets or dead-end errors.

What happens after signup

Once a normal self-serve account is confirmed, HeyNews sets up a publication for your content and newsletters.

The verification link in your signup email verifies your address and signs you in. The first screen asks what you are setting up and whether your newsletter already exists.

If you already have a creator newsletter, HeyNews asks where your past issues live: beehiiv, Kit, a public archive/RSS URL, or a CSV export. HeyNews checks what is available, but does not import, scrape, or train yet.

If you are starting a new creator newsletter or setting up a company newsletter, HeyNews asks you to book a setup call before source connection or checkout.

After that preview, HeyNews asks for a payment method to activate your 14-day free trial. Your trial starts after checkout, and your card is not charged that day. Training begins only after the trial starts.

If a pricing or offer link brought you to signup, checkout opens with that plan, billing cycle, and discount code already selected when they are available.

If you switch App Language on the sign-up, login, or password reset screens, HeyNews uses that language for the matching account emails when it can. HeyNews remembers App Language choices you make yourself for future visits. Language attached to a one-time verification link only affects that visit.

Free trial details

Your trial includes:

  • 5 draft issues (total, not per day)
  • Unlimited AI writers
  • 5 AI revisions per draft
  • 1 publication

A payment method is required to activate the trial before training starts. You get 14 days and up to 5 draft issues. Your card won't be charged until the trial period ends. HeyNews sends reminder emails before then, and you can cancel before the trial is up to avoid being billed.

Logging in

After signing up, log in at app.heynews.co with any of these three methods:

  • Email and password
  • Magic link (enter your email, click the link we send)
  • Google

All three methods work for every account regardless of how you originally signed up. Signed up with Google? You can now also use a magic link or password. Signed up with email? You can use Google later, too.

If you forget your password, click Forgot password? on the login page. You'll get a reset code by email.
