I built a tool that scores local newsletter markets before you write a single email
Built this after doing a deep dive on local newsletter economics and realizing most people skip the one question that actually matters: are there enough ad buyers in the market?
The tool scores any city across four dimensions, ad buyer density, audience signal, content fuel, and competition gap, benchmarked against population and median income. So you're not just guessing if a market is viable, you're seeing it against real baselines.
Second stage surfaces regional businesses already running ads in that area. Those are your sponsors.
