Frequently Asked Questions

How quickly do I get my first briefing?

Most users receive their first briefing within 1-2 hours of setting up. Curated briefings deliver even faster since sources are already configured.

Can I combine multiple approaches?

Yes. You can create multiple briefings - one tracking a topic, another summarizing your Gmail, and subscribe to curated briefings. Each briefing works independently.

What does it cost?

You start with 10,000 free trial credits. After that, plans start at EUR 10/month. Each briefing uses credits based on the number of articles processed.

Is my Gmail data safe?

Protime only reads the emails you authorize (specific Gmail labels). Your data is processed securely and never shared. You can revoke access at any time.

Can I change my topics later?

Absolutely. You can update topics, change schedules, add or remove sources, and adjust your briefing settings at any time from your dashboard.
