In their own words
Feeder
Feeder tracks online sources selected by the user and brings them together in a reading experience. Sources include blogs, news, weather, government databases, job boards, Mastodon and newsletters. Users can filter posts by keywords or topics, exclude terms, arrange feeds into folders, save favorites, make collections and share content. AI options include summaries, text-to-speech, feeds generated for pages without RSS, and a setup assistant. Listed connections include MCP, Slack, Microsoft Teams, Discord, Telegram, Zapier and webhooks, although availability depends on plan. The Free plan allows up to 200 feeds, with checks as often as every 30 minutes; the default interval is every two hours. It includes 50 posts of history per feed and two AI summaries per day. Plus costs $9.99 a month, and Professional costs $19.99 a month. Enterprise pricing is available by contacting sales. Feeder is available on Android, iOS, web and as a browser extension. It does not provide self-serve API keys; REST API access is available by request for app builders and is part of Enterprise.
ReadKit
ReadKit is a read-later and RSS client for iPhone, iPad, and Mac. Its built-in engine subscribes to RSS, Atom, and JSON feeds, and it also connects to news services such as Feedly, Inoreader, and FreshRSS, or read-later services including Instapaper, Pocket, and Wallabag. The free core has no ads or data mining, but the built-in RSS service is limited to 20 feeds and does not sync. Subscriptions, articles, and read statuses can sync across Apple devices through supported aggregators or read-later services. Premium adds multiple accounts, unlimited feeds and smart folders, reader mode, folder and tag management, image caching, themes, app icons, and OPML import and export. Reader mode extracts article text from its original page without using an external parsing service. The macOS app has a Safari extension for detecting feeds on visited pages. Premium costs $2.99 a month or $9.99 a year; lifetime plans cost $19.99 as a one-time purchase for iOS or macOS, or $29.99, paid once for the universal option.
