Curated review
A focused newsletter workspace for collecting links, publishing issues, and managing subscriptions.
Reviewed by iTechGuides Editors · Editorial team · Updated Oct 2026
Curated is a web-based newsletter publishing platform for creators, publishers, and marketers who build issues from collected links. It supports link capture through email, a one-click save link, and a Chrome extension, then combines commentary, images, and customizable layouts in an issue editor. Teams can send and schedule email newsletters, publish public websites with searchable archives, manage subscribers, and review audience analytics. Multiple users can collaborate on publications, while custom domains and paid subscriptions through Stripe extend the publishing model beyond email alone.
Pricing is structured around total subscribers across publications. The Free plan covers 0–1,500 subscribers and includes every feature, including sending. Paid plans start at $39 per month for 1,501–2,500 subscribers, then rise to $69 for 2,501–5,000, $129 for 5,001–10,000, $189 for 10,001–15,000, $299 for 15,001–25,000, and $399 for 25,001–50,000. Paid sending is limited to 31 sends per month multiplied by the plan’s maximum subscriber count, so the entry paid tier has a defined monthly quota rather than unlimited sending. This structure suits teams that can forecast audience growth and issue frequency.
Curated’s strongest fit is a repeatable editorial workflow: capture links, add context, assemble an issue, schedule delivery, and maintain a searchable archive. Zapier, Stripe, Google Analytics, and Facebook Pixel provide connections for automation, payments, measurement, and audience tracking, while the REST API covers publications, issues, links, and email subscribers. The platform is a sensible choice for curated-content teams that value editorial control, public archives, and subscriber products. Teams seeking unlimited sending at the entry paid tier or a broader newsletter focus should compare alternatives.
