Feed an AI newsletter with clean source articles
A newsletter builder uses Firecrawl to turn news pages into clean text, then feeds the stories into an AI-assisted editorial workflow.
The task
Reduce manual sourcing and prepare news stories for automated editorial selection.
What the agent did
A Reddit builder describes collecting article URLs through rss.app, calling Firecrawl to turn pages into Markdown and using prompted extraction to remove irrelevant page content. A second automation reads the stories and helps choose newsletter material. The shared demonstration stores output in Google Drive.
The human’s role
The builder configures sources, schedules and an extraction prompt for The Recap newsletter.
How the product was chosen
The source documents how the product was used, but does not say that the agent independently discovered or recommended it.
The result
The author reports using the pipeline for The Recap, with S3 storage in production. No measured time savings are supplied.
