Stop Staring at Screens Before Bed. Let Your Emails Print Themselves Overnight

    "Animated image of a young person in bed, looking concerned while holding a device, with text encouraging reducing screen time before bed and suggesting emails be printed overnight."

    You don’t need another productivity hack.
    You need fewer tabs in your brain.

    You subscribe to some of the smartest newsletters like tmaker.io on the internet.

    You know — the kind of stuff that’s supposed to make you wiser, sharper, 1% better.

    But here’s what actually happens:

    1. You open it at 9:48pm, promising ā€œjust 2 minutes.ā€
    2. You get sucked into a link rabbit hole.
    3. You end up doomscrolling Hacker News.
    4. You close your laptop at midnight with dried eyes and zero retention.

    Sound familiar?

    We built AutoPrint.Email for you.

    Read With Your Eyes. Not Your Screen.

    AutoPrint.Email is a simple desktop app that automatically prints newsletters and other selected emails the moment they hit your inbox.

    • šŸ–Øļø You set a rule
    • šŸŒ™ Leave your laptop alone
    • šŸ³ Wake up to fresh, printed pages next to your coffee mug

    No clicks. No tabs. No distractions. Just a stack of insight waiting to be read like it’s 2004.


    Why This Works

    Most people want to read newsletters. But email is the wrong place to do it.

    It’s full of context-switching traps:

    • A notification from Slack
    • A reminder about payroll
    • That promo from Amazon you didn’t ask for

    Email is for action. Newsletters are for reflection.

    Printing creates separation.

    You don’t skim a printed page. You don’t ā€œmark as unreadā€ in real life. You either read it — or recycle it. And that’s the clarity your brain craves.


    "Cozy workspace with a mug of coffee, a newsletter, and a reminder note for deep work before 10am."

    Let’s Talk Mornings

    There’s a version of your morning that feels like this:

    • You pour coffee
    • You sit outside, or by the window
    • You read a stack of yesterday’s best ideas
    • You highlight with a pen
    • You finish feeling grounded, focused, inspired

    Then — and only then — you open your laptop and go into ā€œbuilder mode.ā€

    That’s what AutoPrint.Email unlocks.

    It’s not about printers. It’s about protecting your mental runway.


    Built for Newsletter Nerds

    You know who you are:

    • šŸ“ØĀ Subscribed to Lenny, Every, Dense Discovery
    • šŸ“š Saved ā€œfor laterā€ 39 issues ago
    • 🤯 Feeling overwhelmed by the firehose of brilliance

    AutoPrint.Email gives you your time back. Literally.

    You no longer have to choose between reading or resting. You get to read offline, in peace, without blue light or dopamine loops.


    Setup is Easy (And You Only Do It Once)

    1. Install the app (macOS, Linux or Windows)
    2. Connect Gmail or Outlook
    3. Set up a rule/filter in your email provider to automatically sort emails into new/existing folders/mailboxes (e.g. Substack)
    4. Set your preferred printer
    5. Forget it exists

    While you sleep, AutoPrint.Email works like a nocturnal librarian — curating your next day’s insights without opening a single tab.


    This Isn’t Just for Founders

    We built this for:

    • Newsletter readers who care about their screen time
    • Indie hackers who crave deep work mornings
    • Writers who highlight by hand
    • Product people who think better away from keyboards
    • Humans who want better sleep and better mornings

    If you’ve ever said, ā€œI really should read more of the newsletters I subscribe to,ā€ this is your fix.


    What to Print


    TL;DR

    Your laptop is not your friend after 10pm. Your inbox is not your reading space. Your newsletters deserve more than a ā€œlaterā€ you’ll never keep.

    AutoPrint.Email:

    • Automatically prints newsletters at night
    • Protects your screentime and your sleep
    • Delivers morning reading — paper, not pixels

    Wake up. Pour coffee. Read smarter.
