Every creator and publisher knows the struggle.

You start with a newsletter. Simple enough. Then, you’re juggling five tools just to send, grow, and monetize.

That’s the problem we’ve been focused on since day one at beehiiv. We want to give creators and publishers the power to own everything: their audience, their brand, and their revenue –  without the chaos.

The Winter Release event is our way of making this vision real.

We didn’t just ship features. We built the foundation for the next era of the content economy, where creators don’t rent their audience. They own it.

Real talk: Email was just the beginning. 

We’ve powered billions of emails for top names like Hank Green, Colin & Samir, and Brian Westbrook, not just watching publishers evolve, but helping shape that evolution.

That's why we're positioning beehiiv as the operating system for the content economy. During the Winter Release event, we showed how these updates let you do it all in one place, saving you time and boosting your bottom line. No more fragmented tools; just seamless power to grow.

Watch the replay here to see the demos in action:

You shouldn’t need a tech stack or a third party to monetize what you build.

With Digital Products, you can sell anything directly to your audience, including guides, templates, memberships, or services, and keep 100% of your earnings. No commissions. No friction.

Your audience buys, downloads, and stays in your ecosystem.

This is direct monetization made native, the way it should be.

Your website is your digital front door, but building it has always been painful – especially if you know as much about design as rocket science. Now, it’s as easy as having a conversation.

Describe what you want, and our AI Website Builder creates it with structure, copy, visuals, and everything else. Refine, brand, and launch within minutes.

Unlike most AI tools, this builds directly in our user interface (UI), so you can easily adjust it using the web builder.

For individuals and media teams alike, our AI Website Builder is the fastest way to ship a modern, integrated site without needing an agency or code.

Audio is an extension of your content, something your audience would actually pay for or tune into. It’s more valuable, without more complications.

With beehiiv Podcasts, newsletters and shows finally coexist in one home, under one brand, with one data layer.

You can import your existing show or start something new, automatically sync new episodes, and host a beautiful podcast website that lives alongside your newsletter and digital products. Everything is organized, searchable, and powered by the same analytics layer you already trust.

It’s an integrated media experience built for audiences who care about great content, not channels.

You shouldn’t need to be a data scientist to understand what’s working.

Our new Website Analytics gives you a real-time view of performance across your entire media ecosystem, including traffic, behavior, and conversions, without relying on GA4 or complex integrations.

Clarity replaces guesswork. Growth becomes predictable.
