#2This is very useful for marketers and biz dev folk. My suggestion would be that there be an example of how someone can get a lot of value on the homepage.

#3Last time, I posted the pre-launch (V 0.5) of this service, which basically was a weekly newsletter that featured 3 newsletters that you could sponsor. (https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=14445239)
The feedback was fantastic, and today I'm finally launching the searchable database.
Browse through a growing feed of newsletters and support influencers by advertising in their newsletters. Get your product in front of their thousands of targeted and engaged subscribers.
Play around with it and let me know what you think.

#5Some feedback:
Some searches, like 'deep learning', 'venture capital', and 'NLP' don't display any results. Not sure if this is a problem with the search functionality or with your database (probably the former). Some searches display a lack of context - for example, searching 'AI' returns a top result of "Air travelers" because the string "ai" is in "air".
You might consider checking out a product like Algolia to scale your search.
Awesome concept though! Excited to see it grow

#6This is a great idea for both people looking to promote their startups and people running newsletters. I'll be trying it out from both angles to promote my startup[0] and my Email Marketing Weekly newsletter[1].
I am curious to know the monetization strategy? Your site reads "won't charge you anything for it nor will we take a percentage of your sponsorship deals", so what is your angle?

Currently, I'm monetising the tools & services section, there's the option for paid listing there. But there are a few ideas I'm playing around with. For now, I'm just trying to fill the database with as much newsletters as I possibly can.
