Inside every Tuesday
A short letter. The sample leaves the tool radar blank on purpose, so it does not invent tools.
The pick
3 tools
Why each one fits the build, what the free tier covers, and one real downside.
The build
Ship it this weekend
A short walkthrough and a prompt you can paste into the tool I would actually use.

Who writes this
Build Stack Weekly is run by Diego Vallota, a builder into AI, agents, games, and vibe coding. Friends kept asking what to actually use. Each week the letter answers that for one project.
Questions
What is Build Stack Weekly?
A free email every Tuesday for builders and vibe coders. I pick 3 tools for one real project and show you how to ship it over the weekend.
When does it arrive?
Tuesday morning, US Eastern time. One email. That is the whole schedule.
What is in each issue?
Three tool picks, a weekend build, and a tool radar. Most issues also have a short agent or game note, plus a spot to send the project you want picked next.
Who is it for?
People who want to ship something this weekend: vibe coders, agent builders, and indie game devs. If you want a directory of every AI tool, this is the wrong letter.
How much does it cost?
Nothing. Unsubscribe anytime.
How are the tools picked?
For the build in that issue. Each pick gets one real downside. Prices and limits get a source and the date they were checked. If a number is not confirmed, the issue says TBD.
Do you use affiliate links?
Not in the sample issue. If a later issue includes an affiliate link, that issue will say so in plain text. A tool can still be the pick when nobody is paying for the mention.
What happens to my email?
beehiiv stores it and sends the letter. The list is not sold. The privacy page has the rest.
Can I suggest a build?
Yes. Reply to an issue with one line about what you are building. I might pick your stack on a future Tuesday.
