Turn 1 Article Into 3 Notes Instantly With My New Tool
Introducing The NoteFinder
“You got to get on Substack Notes NOW before it’s too late!”
That’s what all the experts yell. 😅
You see people getting 1,000’s of likes, 10,000+ new subscribers, and growing the newsletter of their dreams with Notes, yet you feel left behind like a lost puppy.
You:
Don’t have a clue what to post.
HATE short form writing.
Don’t have 5+ hours per month to devote to Notes.
Aren’t consistent enough on Notes to build momentum.
Plus, who needs ONE MORE THING on their plate, right? The mental bandwidth needed to “do” Notes is exhausting.
I’m so excited to tell you I have a tool that solves all those problems.
I spent another 40+ hours making a new AI tool for you.
I call it The NoteFinder, and it transforms your existing content into viral-worthy Notes in seconds. The trial version turns 1 article into 3 Notes instantly. To use it, just:
Copy and paste your article text into the NoteFinder.
Hit enter.
Watch it create 3 Note drafts instantly.
And the coolest part is, it’s actually YOUR WRITING!
If you want to try it out for free, sign up for it here.
You’ll be given 3 tokens (or 3 uses) for this tool.
If you want the premium version, which gives you 5 Notes instead of 3, become a paid subscriber to The Writing Long Game right here. You’ll also get 50 tokens per month instead of 3.
I’ve raised monthly prices to The Writing Long Game to $18 per month and $145 per year. For the next 72 hours, though, you can become a paid subscriber at $17 per month or $136 per year. Sign up here to get the lowest price that will ever be available.
Here’s the tutorial, benefits, and facts about the NoteFinder. 👇

8 Benefits Of Using The NoteFinder
Here are some benefits of using the NoteFinder.
1. Create 30 days of Notes in 10 minutes
If you use the NoteFinder 6 times as a paid subscriber, it will give you 30 days worth of Notes to post. This whole process takes about 10 minutes.
2. Save 5+ hours of your time every month
Have you ever spent 30+ minutes writing a single Note? All while clients need help, babies are screaming, and you still got to write your weekly newsletter! The pressure is unbearable, and you’re only getting 2 likes per Note anyway! It feels like a waste of time.
No more! Many people spend 5-10 hours monthly writing Notes. Save ALL that time with the NoteFinder.
3. Stay consistent on Notes
Each time you miss a day on Notes, the algorithm punishes you. Visibility drops. Engagement decreases. The momentum you built evaporates.
How many of you consistently post 5 times per week on Notes? It’s hard coming up with new Note ideas, I know. The NoteFinder solves this, ensuring you come up with new drafts in seconds. Never miss a day on Notes again!
4. Take the guesswork out of it
You've spent hours on a Note that disappears without a single like, while some crappy 2 sentence Note from a stranger gets hundreds of engagements. The unpredictability is maddening. You second-guess every post, paralyzed by doubt until you're afraid to post at all.
Many writers feel confused about what performs well on Notes. “What part of my writing will resonate?” many ask me. This tool takes the guesswork out of it. It knows what resonates on Notes, and how to naturally find it in your article.
5. Makes repurposing easy
You've heard "Repurpose your content!" But when combing through your 2,000-word article, you freeze. Where to start? What parts work as standalone Notes? The task feels so overwhelming that you abandon it. Meanwhile, others seem to pump out Notes like Krispy Kreme pumping out donuts.
Relax, The NoteFinder’s got this.
6. More visibility
Your best ideas remain hidden in long-form blog posts while the Notes feed continues without you. Each day you're absent, thousands of potential subscribers discover someone else. The growth you deserve goes to creators who show up where you don't.
But if your Notes production increases, you’ll get more likes, views, and subscribers. And if you’re posting better Notes—which the NoteFinder helps with—you’ll get more likes and visibility based off that, too. Stop leaving growth on the table and start capturing the audience that's already looking for your content.
7. Eliminates overthinking
You've been staring at that draft for 20 minutes. Too long? Too short? Too personal? Not personal enough? Is the dinner I’m cooking burning? The mental spiraling consumes more energy than the writing itself! By the time you hit publish—if you ever do—you're so exhausted your family mistakes you for a zombie afterwards.
If you’re like me, you overthink everything. What to post, what will resonate, etc. Spare yourself of this burden. The NoteFinder will find the best stuff to post automatically. Put your mind at ease, finally!!
8. Find hidden gems in your articles
The perfect viral Note could be hiding in paragraph 17 of your article from last month, but you'll never find it.
Sometimes the best, most viral-worthy content is hidden in the middle of an article. And because we’re so close to our own writing, it’s hard to discern what’s viral-worthy and what isn’t. How many viral Notes do you have buried deep in your articles? You could get hundreds of subscribers in days if you unlock them with the NoteFinder.
Imagine Yourself On Notes 30 Days From Now
Imagine one month from now: You open Substack to find your consistent daily Notes have generated 50-100+ new subscribers. Your morning coffee routine now includes spending just 5 minutes creating an entire week's worth of high-quality Notes.
Maybe one of last month’s Notes went viral, and you received hundreds of new subscribers in days. You now have access to Substack’s biggest growth engine—Notes—when a month earlier you hadn’t posted ANYTHING, and you were posting into the void!
This is the radical transformation that The NoteFinder is offering.
9 Facts About The NoteFinder
Here are some things to keep in mind about The NoteFinder as you use it.
1. Refresh it after every use
After you use The NoteFinder, refresh the page before using it again. It writes shorter and shorter Notes the more times you use it in one session for some reason. It might have something to do with output limits. Just keep that in mind.
2. It looks for 16 note-worthy elements in the text
There’s a secret sauce to how the NoteFinder works. I trained it to look for 16 specific elements of note-worthy posts in your articles. I’ll release these 16 note-worthy elements to paid subscribers in March so you can manually find Notes in future articles if you want.
3. It teaches you things at the bottom of every response
My goal with these AI tools is to teach you how to write better Notes, too. With that in mind, you’ll find a “FOOD FOR THOUGHT” section at the end of every NoteFinder response that teaches you something about how to find Notes in your own articles.
4. It suggests 5 Notes to give you many options
I found that this NoteFinder can be hit or miss sometimes. Most of the time it does write a great Note, but sometimes it can really miss the mark. That’s why I got it to write five Note variations instead of two or three. I wanted to give you at least two great Notes every time you used it. It passes that test with flying colors!
5. Add context when necessary
The one achilles heel of this tool is that it sometimes messes up context. It sometimes references a detail you explained earlier in the article and doesn’t give proper context about that detail in the self-contained Note it writes. You’ll see what I mean as you use it. Use your judgement. Add details if necessary. You shouldn’t have to add more than 1-2 sentences if it calls for it.
6. It’s a fantastic Note writer
It took me a while, but this tool really writes some incredible Notes. You’ll be astonished with it. I also trained it on the Note-writing principles of the NoteSmith to maintain a standard across my AI tools.
7. It uses your voice and words 95% of the time
The cool thing about the NoteFinder is, it uses your own words to construct these Notes. 95% of the time, it doesn’t write anything new for you. However, it does do things like:
Shorten lengthy sentences.
Rearrange sentences.
Make bullet points out of relevant text.
The only time it will really add words is at the ending. Since Notes are supposed to be a self-contained thought, it might add a lesson at the end that you implied in the text, but didn’t actually spell out.
Just be aware of that, and change the ending as you see fit.
8. Plug it back into the NoteSmith if you want
One cool experiment you could try is to get Notes suggested with the NoteFinder, then copy/paste these drafts into the NoteSmith to get even more feedback. It’s up to you. This will eat up tokens, so keep that in mind.
9. You can use these Note drafts as a first draft
If you want, you could also look at Note drafts from the NoteFinder as a foundation. A first draft, if you will. I believe most of the time you can simply copy/paste them into Substack and hit publish, but you might want to add 25-75 words to it, too. That’s fine! Again, use these tools how you see fit.
I’m Releasing New AI Tools Every Month For Paid Subscribers
The NoteFinder is the second AI tool I’ve released to paid subscribers in 30 days.
In April, I plan to increase monthly subscription prices to $20 per month, because I have another HUGE, community-driven AI tool coming. I can’t wait to show it to you. It’s going to knock your socks off.
You might want to lock in this $17 per month / $136 per year price while you can. The price will probably double by the end of 2025.
Access The NoteSmith, Too
If you become a paid subscriber, you’ll also get access to The NoteSmith, my flagship AI tool that gives you expert feedback on your Note drafts.
Last month, we had 350 people try it out, and a bunch of writers used it to craft Notes that got hundreds and even thousands of likes.
Here’s a message I got from a paid subscriber who had been using The NoteSmith to edit their Note drafts in February..
“Oh my! My notes are really fueling a growth swell right now, and I'm loving it. Plus an article-reading swell. Look at this! The earlier spikes are posts and in between, near-crickets. Now I'm getting traction on my articles all week long, even when I'm not publishing one.”
Glowing NoteFinder Feedback
I gave early access to paid subscribers last week, and here’s what they had to say about it:
“NoteFinder - OMG! Best invention since discover of penicillin (lol) - I'm loving it - super high quality notes, I've played with different lengths of articles—the longer the article, the higher quality of the notes—just an observation. Well done!!!”
“Very impressive, Tom! All 5 of the proposed notes are publishable as they are, although I would probably tweak each one just a little bit. I can't imagine how you created this tool. Well done!”
Hi Tom. Another great tool. Thank you. I've just posted one of my articles into it and it produced 5 brilliant notes. I've tweaked a couple of them….
This is so fantastic. Thank you. I've noticed recently that every time I sat down to write a note, my energy felt dragged down. I didn't really want to do it but it's necessary if I want to grow here on Substack. Now you have just removed that pain!

This is a tempting tool. Intrigued to try it out when I have the chance.
Alright Tom, I am giving it a go. I’ve already popped out three notes and all of them would get me to stop and read so I’m excited about jumping into it more.
