# 11 products I love, free for a year—the biggest Product Pass expansion in 2 years

### Runway, Higgsfield, Waking Up, Brain.fm, Customer.io, Resend, Pangram, Mercury Personal, Supercut, Readwise, and Jam are joining Product Pass today, all included with Annual and Insider memberships

*👋 Hey there, I’m Lenny. Each week, I share deeply researched product, growth, and career advice. For more: Lenny’s Podcast | Lennybot | How I AI | Become an AI-Native Builder and other excellent AI/PM courses*

If you thought this subscription couldn’t possibly get any better, you ain’t seen nothing yet.

Today, I’m adding 11 more incredible products to **Lenny’s Product Pass**: [Runway](https://runwayml.com/partners/lenny?utm_source=partner&utm_medium=website&utm_campaign=lennys&utm_content=insider), [Higgsfield](https://higgsfield.ai/s/lenny), [Mercury Personal](https://mercury.com/personal-banking), [Brain.fm](http://brain.fm?utm_source=lenny), [Customer.io](https://customer.io/platform), [Resend](https://resend.com/lennys-product-pass), [Pangram](https://www.pangram.com/?utm_source=lenny&utm_medium=partnership&utm_campaign=lennys_product_pass), [Waking Up](https://www.wakingup.com/lenny), [Supercut](https://supercut.ai/lenny), [Readwise](http://readwise.io/read), and [Jam](https://jam.dev/lenny).

This brings [LennysProductPass.com](https://www.lennysproductpass.com/) to 34 products (!!!)—including one year free of Cursor, Wispr Flow, Replit, Lovable, Factory, Granola, Linear, and more. **That’s over $40,000 in value for Insiders ($400/year), and over $36,000 for Annual subscribers ($200/year). **Simply absurd.

Most of these companies have never offered a deal like this before, and supplies are limited. **If you are already an Annual or Insider member, grab your codes here. If you are currently free or monthly, upgrade to unlock the Product Pass immediately. **

I continue to invest in the [Product Pass](https://www.lennysproductpass.com/) because I’ve been watching [a gap widen](https://www.lennysnewsletter.com/i/195557892/takeaway-1-the-workforce-is-splitting-in-two) between people who are having the most fun and success of their entire careers thanks to AI, and people who are feeling confused, stressed, and destabilized. For over seven years, I’ve been sharing [practical advice](https://www.lennysnewsletter.com/), [building community](https://www.lennysnewsletter.com/p/community), and [capturing insights](https://www.youtube.com/c/LennysPodcast) from industry leaders, but for many people, *access* is often the trickiest part. These tools are expensive, and there are so many of them. It’s hard to know where to invest your time and money. That’s why the curation—only including products I genuinely love and recommend—and pushing every partner to offer a full free year are so important.

A typical free trial gives you only enough time to poke around and get at the surface level of a product. But with a full year of access, you and your team can build real things, form durable habits, and have enough time to figure out which tools deserve a lasting place in your stack.

This time around, because life is about more than work, I’m expanding the Product Pass to include a free year of my favorite personal tools, like ** Waking Up**,

**,**

[Readwise](http://readwise.io/read)**,**

**Offer:** 1 year free of Higgsfield Pro plan ($348 value)

**What it is: **An AI video platform built for professional production, used by marketing teams, 390 of the Fortune 500 brands, and studios and filmmakers to create cinematic-quality content at scale. Describe a shot, upload a reference image, or start from a script, and Higgsfield takes care of the rest. It handles everything from single ads to full commercial campaigns to original long-form narrative series.

**Why I love it:** Higgsfield is especially great for ads, socials, and launch videos. I just created [this delightful launch video](https://higgsfield.ai/@lenny123/projects/lennysnewsletter-assets) promoting the Product Pass. In the past 15 months, they went from zero to $500M in ARR, one of the fastest growth ramps in history. NBD.

[Waking Up](https://www.wakingup.com/lenny)

**Offer: **1 year free of Waking Up ($129 value)

**What it is: **A mind-training app for anyone who wants to live with more intention. Founded by Sam Harris, it brings together meditation, neuroscience, philosophy, and practical wisdom from some of the world’s leading thinkers. Waking Up is less about “relaxation” and more about developing the mental skills underneath great work: greater self-awareness, better emotional regulation, and the ability to respond thoughtfully instead of react automatically.

**Why I love it:** I’ve been using the app since it came out, and it’s legitimately made me a happier person. The app has also moved far beyond meditation now.

**How people use Waking Up:**

Slowing down and recognizing

[what deserves attention](https://www.instagram.com/p/DUBtnpSDOxK/?hl=en)Transforming the relationship with

[Resend](https://resend.com/lennys-product-pass)

**Offer: **1 year free of Resend Transactional Pro ($240 value)

**What it is: **An email API built for developers. It’s predictable by design and has a simple, elegant interface, so you can start sending and receiving emails in minutes. With tools like a hosted MCP, Agent Skills, and a CLI, your agents can help you get email added to your app, so you never have to think about email again.

**Why I love it:** When I vibe coded [LennysData.com](https://www.lennysdata.com/) with Claude Code and Codex, both platforms recommended I use Resend for email. Having now used it extensively, I couldn’t be happier. I even [wrote a little something](https://resend.com/customers/lennys-newsletter) for them about my experience. It’s a special product (and team).

**How people use Resend:**

Replacing a legacy email provider and finding newfound confidence in email sending

[Supercut](https://supercut.ai/lenny)

**Offer:** 1 year of Supercut Pro for 10 seats ($1,800 value)

**What it is: **A screen recorder for teams who’d rather record an update than sit in another meeting. Record your screen and yourself, share a link, and let people watch when it suits them. They can ask an AI assistant about anything said or shown in the video, and act on it. Supercut also has an MCP, so you can connect it to your agent and your AI stack to finish the workflow.

**Why I love it:** As soon as I discovered Supercut, I switched off Loom and have never looked back. Design 🤌✨

[Jam](https://jam.dev/lenny)

**Offer: **1 year free of Jam Team plan for 10 seats ($1,920 value)

**What it is: **Jam makes it easy to report bugs with all the context an engineer or AI agent needs to fix them. Record your screen with the Jam browser extension and it will automatically capture console logs, network requests, device metadata, and user actions. It’s all bundled in one shareable link that can be pushed to Slack, an issue tracker, a coding agent, or any other location where bugs get fixed.

**Why I love it:** It’s simple, slick, powerful, and immediately useful.

**How people use Jam:**

**9. **[Readwise](http://readwise.io/read)

[Readwise](http://readwise.io/read)

**Offer: **1 year free of Readwise and Reader ($120 value)

**What it is: **Readwise Reader is a powerful reading app for managing content overload. You save all your content—web articles, PDFs, email newsletters, ebooks, YouTube, podcasts, tweets, RSS, and Markdown—into one central repository. You can then read or listen to (using text-to-speech) those documents in a beautiful, distraction-free experience with first-class highlighting, annotating, and integrated AI tools.

Your AI agent can also tap into your library using the Readwise MCP server, allowing you to save any content and instantly have your agent know about it.

This is not to mention their Readwise highlights app (also part of the offer), which helps you easily retain and put to use what you’ve read.

**Why I love it:** I’ve been a Readwise user for over five years, and I love that they’ve expanded into being the new Pocket (RIP).

**How people use Readwise:**

[Pangram](https://www.pangram.com/?utm_source=lenny&utm_medium=partnership&utm_campaign=lennys_product_pass)

**Offer: **1 year free of Pangram Professional ($540 value)

**What it is: **Not all AI-generated text uses the telltale “it’s not just x, it’s also y.” That’s why a second set of eyes can help. Pangram uses a fine-grain analysis that goes beyond surface-level tells, with a 1-in-10,000 false-positive rate verified by third-party benchmarks and researchers.

**Why I love it:** I use Pangram *constantly.* My favorite part is their [Chrome (and Firefox) extension](https://www.pangram.com/solutions/chrome-extension), which tells you which posts on LinkedIn, X, Substack, etc. are likely AI. 👀
