Step 4: Generate drafts

There are two main ways to get drafts from Kawara:

2. Kawara's automated flow

Every week, Kawara automatically generates a draft of the week for you based on your subscribed channels and sends it to your email.

You can update the day to receive the email in your settings.

How it works:

Kawara analyzes your video content, extracts key insights, and generates a complete newsletter draft that captures the most important points in the style you want.

Step 5: Edit drafts

Use Kawara's built-in editor to review and refine your generated drafts before publishing to ensure they meet your standards.

Step 6: Send to Kit

With a single click, your newsletter draft is sent directly to Kit under your broadcasts section.

Your newsletter draft will appear in your Kit broadcasts section where you can schedule, customize, and send it to your subscribers.

⚠️ Important Note:

For now, Kit only supports sending entire HTML chunks to Kit. This might make it hard to further edit your draft in the Kit editor.

To solve this: Within the Kit editor, you have to click on the "Replace HTML" button to enable full editing capabilities.

This is a limitation imposed by Kit and we are working on making this experience better.

Common issues and solutions

Newsletter draft is missing key points

Each Kawara template is designed to be a good starting point. If there are certain sections you want present in your newsletter, you can create a customized newsletter structure in the newsletter settings page.

Integration not working

Check that both your Kawara and Kit accounts are properly connected. Contact support for help reauthorizing the integration if needed.

Video says there's no transcript

It might be a temporary issue. Try retrying the processing. If it still doesn't work, contact support. Videos over 6h long have a higher chance of facing this issues. Contact support if that happens.

There is an error generating a draft

This usually means we could be facing rate limits with the AI model. Try waiting a few minutes and retrying. If it still doesn't work, contact support.
