02Use Cases

Automate your Readwise tasks with Zaira effortlessly

See how people are automating their Readwise tasks with Zaira while they sleep.

Weekly reading digest to Slack

Every week Zaira scans your new highlights and saved documents, clusters them by theme, and posts a plain-English digest to your Slack channel or email — so your reading finally compounds into something you actually use.

Writing brief from your best highlights

Before the newsletter or blog post, Zaira searches your library by topic, gathers your strongest highlights with their sources, and drafts them into a Google Doc with citations — quotes from what you actually read, not a random web search.

Reader inbox triage on autopilot

Zaira lists what's stacked up in your Reader inbox, tells you what's worth reading and why, and applies tags, shortlists, or archives within your permissions — a 30-minute inbox slog becomes a 5-minute summary in Slack.

Monthly 'what I've been learning' report

Zaira clusters the month's highlights and reading into themes, notes what changed your thinking, and emails you the report — a self-assembled end-of-month review, no notebook required.

Weekly read-next recommendations

Based on your recent highlights and reading history, Zaira picks three items worth your next 20 minutes and posts them to Slack — recommendations grounded in what you were just reading.
