The mainstream RSS service
Feedly ranks #8 of 11 in RSS readers, with an Alt Score of 50. It is proprietary, freemium from $7.99/month and available on Web, iOS and Android. 7 of 10 checklist rows are verified against a public source.
Knowledge workers, researchers, marketers, and business teams who need to track many news sites, blogs, and industry sources without getting overwhelmed; a separate Feedly Threat Intelligence product serves security/CTI teams monitoring clear and dark web sources.
A single reader that pulls in RSS feeds, news sites, and other sources into organized feeds and Boards for saving and annotating articles. Leo, Feedly's AI, learns your interests from feedback, then prioritizes relevant articles, filters out noise and duplicates, and can summarize longer pieces. Team plans add shared boards and collaborative source curation.
You add sources or topics to build custom feeds, then read, save, and tag articles into Boards as you go. Leo runs in the background, ranking and muting content based on the topics and feedback you give it over time.
