Yo earlies. ☼

Welcome to edition #56 of the early.tools newsletter, now reaching 2,455+ readers. Every Sunday, you get a quick rundown of launch updates and the most notable pre-launch startups worth watching. I'm Julian Paul, and I track tools as they move from Waitlist → Alpha → Beta → Launched, so you catch the products that matter early.

[SPONSOR] Edition #56 is proudly brought to you by The Network – currently hiring and giving grants to solo founders & builders. ↓

Sonatic → an autonomous task manager that watches how you work, learns your preferences, and runs routine tasks across your apps on its own. Built for knowledge workers who want to offload repetitive work but keep control over the calls that matter. It plugs into your existing stack, turns apps into agents through its agent store, and tracks every task — automated or manual — in one place.
