Paste it into the configuration field below. Note: Substack's API is currently in limited availability — check Substack's developer page for the latest access information.
Can I draft and schedule newsletter posts?
Yes. Your AI agent can create draft posts with title, body content, subtitle, and metadata. You can then schedule them for a specific date and time — managing your entire editorial calendar conversationally.
Can I track how many subscribers I gained this month?
Yes. Ask your AI agent for subscriber growth metrics and get total subscribers, new subscribers this month, churn rate, and free vs. paid subscriber breakdown.
Does this work with paid Substack publications?
Yes. The integration supports both free and paid publications. You can manage paywalled content, check paid subscriber counts, and analyze revenue metrics through your AI agent.
