PM Newsletters
(2026 Edition)
Five newsletters make the cut for working product managers: Lenny's Newsletter for deep weekly essays, Reforge for tactical growth practice, Ken Norton's Bringing the Donuts for calm leadership wisdom, Product Hunt Daily for what's shipping, and India-specific voices like Bharat Founders — though only Lenny's and Reforge justify a paid subscription; subscribing to ten dilutes reading depth instead of building it.

FAQ
Are PM newsletters worth paid subscriptions?
One or two, yes. Lenny's and Reforge offer enough depth to justify cost for working PMs. Beyond that, free Substacks and your own reading habits compound more. Don't sub to 10 paid newsletters — you'll read none thoroughly.
