AI Genealogy Society Newsletter Drafter

WHAT IT DOES

The AI Genealogy Society Newsletter Drafter creates warm, community-oriented newsletters for your genealogy organization. Provide the society name, issue month/year, next meeting date, research topic, featured ancestor story, and upcoming events—and the agent returns a newsletter draft with an educational, discovery-filled tone. The output includes a welcoming greeting, a summary of the meeting agenda and research topic, a featured ancestor story or research highlight, a practical research tip, a calendar of upcoming events, and a closing call-to-action encouraging members to share their discoveries, bring relatives, or contact society officers with questions. This helps society officers and editors produce consistent, engaging newsletters that build community and promote genealogical discovery.

HOW TO USE

Open the agent in BotSurf—it runs as a floating panel on any page. After you've set your API key once (the host handles that for you), type or paste your newsletter details into the input box. Include the society name, the issue month and year, the next meeting date and time, the research topic for the meeting, a featured ancestor story or research highlight, and any upcoming events. Press the "Draft" button or use Ctrl+Enter (Cmd+Enter on Mac) to generate the newsletter. The agent produces a ready-to-use draft that you can copy, personalize slightly, and publish via email, newsletter software, or print. You can also highlight text from a calendar, meeting agenda, or society email and click "Use selection" to pull in details instantly.

WHAT IT SENDS

When you click "Draft," this agent sends only the text you have typed or pasted into the input box—nothing else. It does not transmit your browsing history, page content, cursor position, or any other data from your session. The text is sent to the AI model solely to generate the newsletter draft for your specific society. Usage logs record only your monthly run count for billing and subscription tracking; they do not store the content of your inputs or the responses generated. Your society and member details remain private to your session.

SUBSCRIPTION

The AI Genealogy Society Newsletter Drafter is available for $19.99 per month, which includes a 7-day free trial so you can test it with real newsletters before subscribing. Each subscription includes 100 runs per month—enough to draft monthly newsletters, create special research bulletins, or produce updates for your genealogy society. You can cancel anytime with no long-term commitment or hidden fees. Unused runs do not roll over, and additional runs beyond the monthly limit are not available—choose the plan that fits your society's publishing volume.

THE PANEL

This agent appears as a movable panel in BotSurf. You can drag it anywhere on your screen, snap it to any edge for a clean workspace, or collapse it down to a compact bubble when you need to focus on other content. The panel remembers its position across sessions using BGAI persistence, and you can dismiss it quickly with the Escape key. When collapsed, the panel shows a small emoji badge—click it to expand and use the agent again. It is designed to stay accessible without getting in your way.

PLEASE NOTE

AI-generated newsletter drafts are a starting point for your communications, not a final publication. While this agent produces professional and engaging newsletters based on the details you provide, you should always review each draft for accuracy, completeness, and tone before publishing. Genealogical research, dates, and event details may require specific language that this tool does not include. This tool provides general marketing and educational content only and does not constitute professional genealogical or legal advice. The AI can make mistakes, and you are fully responsible for the final newsletter you share with your members.
