In their own words

Instapaper

Instapaper saves internet content for later reading and organization. A single action can save articles, videos, recipes, song lyrics, and other pages; saved articles and videos sync across supported devices and can be read offline. Readers can highlight and comment on article text, then store, retrieve, quote, and share selected passages. The free plan includes unlimited article, video, and page saves, folders, synchronization, and API integration, with a limit of five notes per month. Premium adds full-text search, a permanent archive of articles, PDF reading, unlimited notes, Kindle integration, and mobile AI Voices and text-to-speech playlists. Premium costs $5.99 a month or $59.99 a year. Supported platforms include the web, iOS, Android, macOS, and a Chrome extension; listed devices also include Kindle, Kobo, and Boox eReaders. Speed reading is listed as processing articles up to three times faster.

Newsify

Newsify is an RSS reader for following websites, blogs, and feeds in a newspaper-style layout. It runs on iOS, macOS, and the web. On iOS and macOS, feeds can sync through Newsify or Feedly, or through iCloud without an account. Reading options include offline access with image caching on Apple platforms, article search, night mode, themes, configurable syncing, and newspaper-style or table-based article lists. The site lists sharing integrations including Evernote, Pocket, Pinterest, and Tumblr. Premium adds full-text extraction, more images, full-text search, priority support, ad removal, and Account Plus, which adds mute filters, faster item delivery, and more feed history. The Free plan costs nothing; Newsify Premium costs $2.99 a month. Web use requires a Newsify account, though a sync-provider account is optional for basic mobile and computer features. The FAQ says feed-provided content and images determine what appears, and there are currently no plans for an Android version.
