What SchoolBrief can do today, and what's coming next.

Currently supported

Publicly accessible newsletter links

When your school newsletter contains a "View in browser" link, SchoolBrief fetches the full rendered content for a richer, more accurate summary.

Per-child personalised summaries

Add your children's names, year levels, and activities. Summaries highlight only what's relevant to each child.

General school announcements

Auto-forwarded a permission note or canteen notice by mistake? SchoolBrief detects single-topic emails and summarises them too.

Custom instructions

Type a note at the top of your forwarded email — e.g. "Focus on sport events" — and the summary will follow your lead.

Multi-child summaries in one email

If you have more than one child, all their relevant highlights are combined into a single summary email.

PDF newsletter attachments

Some schools send their newsletters as PDF attachments. We're working on extracting and summarising these automatically.

Weekly digest

Opt in to receive a weekly digest of all summaries instead of one email per newsletter.

Does your newsletter work with SchoolBrief?

Not all newsletters are the same — some schools use formats we haven't seen yet. Send us a sample of your school's newsletter and we'll make sure it's supported.
