What is beehiiv?

beehiiv is a newsletter platform for writers and media brands, with publishing, growth tools, paid subscriptions, a referral program and an ad network. Running a newsletter means managing subscribers, segments and automations, and keeping an eye on how posts perform. This connection lets Fabric's assistant handle that for you, in plain language.

You stay in control

The assistant works from your instructions, and it confirms with you before deleting subscribers, posts or segments, unless you've told it not to for a particular task. Reading stats and lists never changes anything.

When a job should run regularly, a Fabric AI job can run on a schedule, such as a monthly performance summary of your posts. The connection also includes events, such as New Subscriptions, User Unsubscribes, New Post Sent, New Subscription Upgrades and New Survey Responses, which can start an automation.
