    A Value-Packed Newsletter for Digital Doers

    A Look Inside The Newsletter

    The Newsletter 🧰

    This newsletter is all about practical tools and digital tips to help you work faster and waste less time.

    See it in action 🎥

    Every week, I pick a tool I’ve actually used, something that helped me work faster, stay organized, or just make life a bit easier. Then I make a short video to show you exactly how it works.

    SaaS Deals 📣

    I keep an eye out for SaaS deals that actually make a difference, the kind that help you run your business better, for less. When I find a gem, I share it. It’s the only way to keep costs down.

    The Weekly Hack ⚡

    I geek out over automations and little AI hacks that take work off my plate. When something genuinely helps me get more done with less effort, I pass it along, one tip at a time.

    Who is Behind the Newsletter?

    Josep Garcia

    Josep Garcia

    CONTENT MANAGER

    I’m Josep, the guy behind the Tooltester newsletter. After years of writing for Tooltester.com, I now share my favorite tools for creators, freelancers, and digital pros, tested & used by me. As someone juggling a job, a marriage, twins, and too many geeky side projects, I only share what actually helps me out. If it saves time, money or makes life easier, it’s in. And when I’m not testing tools (or parenting), I’m on the tennis court (probably, getting hammered!).

    FOUNDER AND CEO

    Hi, I’m Robert Brandl! I started out in a digital marketing agency, managing websites and email campaigns, and was constantly searching for the best tools to get the job done. That’s what led me to create Tooltester, and later, EmailTooltester. I’m still obsessed with helping people find the right software without wasting time. When I’m not testing tools, you can find me cruising around Catalonia (and France) on my bike.

    FAQ All You Need to Know

    Every Friday, we send you a short, curated list of the most useful digital tools, clever hacks, and creative inspiration — all tested by digital pros and proven to work. We only feature tools we’ve actually tried and used ourselves. No beta tools, just reliable picks to help you work smarter and faster.

    It’s built for solopreneurs, small business owners, and marketers who want to stay ahead with smart, affordable tools. If you like discovering new ways to get things done faster and better, this is for you.

    We only email you once a week, on Fridays, with stuff we genuinely think you’ll find useful. No spam. No distractions.

    And, of course, you can unsubscribe at any time.

    We’re tool nerds. Josep and the Tooltester team are constantly testing everything from AI writing assistants and video editors to Chrome extensions and no-code automation platforms. But we don’t just share any old thing, we only recommend tools we’ve personally used to build content, grow websites, automate repetitive tasks, or manage the boring parts of running an online business. If it doesn’t save us time or make life easier, it doesn’t make the cut.

    Yes! We often include short demo videos that show exactly how the tools work, so you can see them in action before trying them yourself.

    Most of these are recorded by me (Josep) or someone on our team, and they’re designed to be quick and offer an overview of what to expect.

    You’ll also find many of our tool demos and reviews on the Tooltester YouTube channel.
