Sure, and you could hack together a CRM in a weekend. And a project management tool. And you can set up IRC instead of Slack. And you could make a mailing list with google spreadsheets and a little script.
One of the most crucial skills when you don't have a boss telling you what to do is figuring our where to spend your precious time.
If a weekend project means, say, 16 hours of work, you need to value your time at less than $6.50 for this to be worth one year at the cheap plan.

If a whole team is expected to respond to the emails this service sends with new updates on a daily basis and do that in addition to whatever activity planning, communication and and tracking tools they're already using, then using this service instead of making a one time effort to get their existing toolset to spit out daily emails is probably a false economy. And if they're currently not systematically tracking project activity, and relying entirely on verbal communication or email they're - for good reasons or bad - probably not overly likely to pay for to SaaS-based coordination tools either.
