Already receiving newsletters via email? Generate your personal forwarding address in **Settings** and forward them to Nudget — they'll be summarized in your briefing too.

Add lenses on the **Settings** page. Lenses organize your briefing into topic-based sections.

Examples:

* `AI` — Artificial intelligence content
* `Developer Tools` (detail: "focused on open source") — Fine-tuned filtering
