AI Analysis

MidCozyNiche Gem

Changelog-style AI news feed with trend metrics, though newsletters cover similar ground.

Strengths
  • Trend metrics display percentage changes in topic mentions alongside static links.
  • Filters target specific models and companies like Claude Code or Hermes Agent.
  • Direct primary source links save users from scrolling social media feeds.
Weaknesses
  • Manual curation doesn't scale like automated aggregators or Twitter lists.
  • Crowded market with established players like TLDR AI and The Batch.

Post Description

My girlfriend and I built this because we kept losing chunks of the day to "catching up on AI."

We're both building AI products in production. We both get a huge buzz out of being on X, and our day-to-day work changes meaningfully based on what we find that day.

We built AI Primer to get the benefit of being on X but with the focus of a curated feed. You can catch up when you want without the anxiety of missing something if you skip a day on X.

It’s closer to a changelog than a newsletter. Dated entries, every summary links back to a primary source, filterable by company / model / topic. You can scan the last week in a few minutes.

We have a lot more coming (e.g. embedded agentic search) and would love your feedback on what’s missing and where we could do better.

Keepsanity.ai – an AI newsletter for overwhelmed engineers

The landing delivers a tight promise — ‘stay ahead of the AI game without the overwhelm’ — and the signup flow looks deliberately low-friction. What’s missing is evidence of unique curation: no sample issue, ranking method, or filter logic is shown, so it reads as a well-designed but typical newsletter unless the author surfaces a distinctive editorial process or dataset.
