Insanely Cool Tools - Substack Edition #1
Best tools in your pocket! 📱
Insanely Cool Tools is back and here is a quick story…
If you’ve been around with ICT (Insanely Cool Tools) long enough, you know that the newsletter started in mid-2023 on the Beehiiv platform.
Later, the previous owner sold the newsletter to me (about me in a few seconds). I bought the newsletter in spring 2025. After about a month, I sent out the first issue, BUT…. We had some issues with the domain and deliverability.
That’s when my journey to fix it started. After a few months working with Beehiiv support, we began to identify the issues, tried to fix them, and sent out a few more test issues. Unfortunately we kept running into the same problems.
In simple words, 💩 happened…
I got tired and put this newsletter on the top shelf. At the start of 2026, I decided to try one more time, migrated to Substack, and here we are - Substack Edition #1.
About me:
My name is Justas, I’m from Lithuania 🇱🇹
I help companies with SEO/LLMs
I have a few other newsletters
I have a 2-year-old boss at home who controls everything 👶
I like cars and movies
Newsletter goals:
Keep this newsletter short, brief, and informative.
Share my latest findings, tools, apps, news, and other things I find interesting.
Keep you updated on what’s going on in the tools and AI world.
Let’s grow together and make sure AI will not replace us, but that we become irreplaceable. 🫡
