About NoteStack
NoteStack tracks how Substack Notes perform and helps plan new ones. A dashboard shows every Note with likes, comments, restacks and engagement, and a Note Performance Map classifies each Note as Dynamo, Rocket, Burner or Wonder based on its engagement pattern so you can see what resonates.
Spy Mode analyzes any public Substack profile, covering its most successful Notes, how often it posts, the content formats it uses and engagement patterns, with 30 profiles on the Starter plan. Engagement insights give automated coaching and weekly comparisons, post coach nudges flag content gaps, streaks and the most effective posting windows, and AI prompt templates for ChatGPT and Claude, drafts and scheduling support writing in advance. The Starter plan is listed at $8 a month or $60 a year with a 7-day free trial.
