Elink

Turning a handful of links into a professional-looking newsletter, web page or widget usually takes time and skills. elink does it in minutes: you paste the URLs, choose a layout and the tool generates ready-to-publish content.

elink is a content curation tool that turns collections of links into ready-to-use content. It works simply: you gather and paste the URLs of the pages you want to share and elink automatically extracts their title, image and description, creating visual "cards." From these cards you can generate different formats in a few clicks: newsletters to send via major email marketing services, web pages publishable with their own link, and widgets to embed on your site to display always-updated content. You pick a template from those available, customize text, header and style, and the content is ready. Also available are a web app to save and organize content found while browsing, a browser extension to capture links on the fly and collaboration tools to work as a team. It's designed for those who curate regularly — industry newsletters, roundups, resource collections — and want to reduce production time while keeping a polished look.

For bloggers, newsletter creators, marketers and educators who regularly share link collections and want to quickly turn them into polished newsletters, pages and widgets.

elink offers a free plan that lets you create a limited number of pieces of content, with elink branding visible. Paid plans start at around $12 per month (billed annually) and remove the limits, unlocking unlimited content, more templates, branding removal and advanced features such as automatic widgets and collaboration. Prices may vary, so it's worth checking them on the site before subscribing.
