Not a fit if you want…

  • promises of subscribers or income
  • multi-seat team or approval workflows
  • someone to write or send your issues for you

Questions

Who is Solo Newsletter OS for?

Solo creators, indie hackers, freelancers and writers starting or restarting a free or paid newsletter who want a simple weekly process rather than a course.

What is in the download?

A ZIP with 8 files: a 4-week content calendar (Markdown and CSV), 100 original subject lines in 9 types, a pre-publish, publish and post-publish issue checklist, a KPI tracker (CSV and Excel), a one-issue launch SOP, and a README with a 30-minute setup.

Does it work with my email platform?

Yes. The files are plain Markdown, CSV and Excel, so they work alongside Beehiiv, Buttondown, Kit, Substack or any other platform. Open them in Notion, Google Sheets, Excel or a text editor.

Is this a course?

No. It is a set of templates and a step-by-step SOP. Read the README, then fill in Week 1.

Will it grow my list?

Not on its own. It helps you publish consistently and track what happened. Growth still depends on your topic, your offer and your distribution. There is no guarantee of subscribers or income.

I have never used crypto. Can I still buy it?

Yes. Buy USDC in the Coinbase app or a wallet, create an order at checkout, send the exact amount it shows on the Base network, then paste the transaction hash. The step-by-step guide is at /how-to-pay.

How fast is delivery?

You can download as soon as your transaction confirms on Base, which usually takes under a minute. Paste the transaction hash and the ZIP downloads in your browser.

Why is the price 39.00-something USDC?

Each order gets a unique amount, 39 USDC plus less than one cent, and a private order code. Transaction hashes are public, so this is what stops someone else from claiming your payment.

Can I use it for client newsletters?

Yes, for newsletters you deliver yourself. You may not resell or redistribute the pack.

What if the download fails?

Submit the same order code and transaction hash again; each order can download up to 5 times. If that does not work, email soloearn@agentmail.to with both.

Is it a subscription?

No. It is a one-time payment of $39 (paid as 39 USDC plus a unique amount under one cent) and you do not need an account.
