Your settings
Everything about how your briefing is delivered lives in the portal, under Settings (portal.betabriefing.ai/portal/settings). Each section saves on its own, so you can change one thing without touching the rest.

Delivery
Choose when your briefing arrives. There are two independent switches:
- Daily — a briefing every day.
- Weekly — a once-a-week edition.
You can run either, both, or neither:
| Daily | Weekly | What you get |
|---|---|---|
| On | Off | A briefing every day |
| Off | On | One weekly edition |
| On | On | Daily briefings plus a weekly digest |
| Off | Off | Paused — nothing is sent |
You also set the day of week, time, and timezone for delivery. The time you pick is the time you see — your briefing is timed to land by then.
Email theme
Switch your email between light and dark so the briefing matches how you like to read.
Audio voice
Every briefing is narrated. Pick the voice used for your audio — or let it rotate through different voices each day.
Telegram notifications
Want a ping in Telegram when a new briefing is ready? In Settings, generate a one-time link and open it in Telegram to connect your account. Once linked, notifications turn on for all of your briefings; you can disconnect at any time. (If you don't see the option, Telegram isn't configured for your instance yet.)
RSS feeds
You can point Beta Briefing at your own RSS feeds — up to ten — for example aggregate feeds exported from a reader like FreshRSS, Inoreader, or NewsBlur (handy if you keep separate folders). We treat them as an extra research source alongside our own web search. It's entirely optional, and leaving it blank changes nothing.
Announcements
Opt in (or out) of occasional product announcement emails, separate from your daily briefing.
Changing depth or focus (Smart Edit)
How deep your briefing goes — and what it covers — isn't a dropdown. Instead, open Smart Edit (portal.betabriefing.ai/portal/smart-edit) and just say what you want in plain language: "go deeper," "make it shorter," "add a section on X," "stop covering Y." Beta Briefing supports several depths — from a quick read to a long, thorough edition — and Smart Edit picks the right one from your description.
