Searches that stay put.
Save any search as a feed of its own. New matches land there as they arrive, alongside your folders.
A quieter RSS reader
A feed reader that reads like paper.
PigeonRss collapses the same story from ten feeds into one, summarizes long articles when you ask, alerts you when a keyword shows up, and delivers a digest to email, Telegram, or Kindle. On the web, and as a native iPhone and iPad app that keeps reading offline.

Three jobs, done quietly
It removes the noise so the reading carries the weight.
Follow enough feeds and the work isn't reading — it's triage. PigeonRss does the triage for you, then gets out of the way.
01 / Deduplication
The same story, once.
Follow ten tech feeds and the same story arrives ten times. PigeonRss matches the same link, the same headline, or a near-identical one (you set how close), shows the story once with a “+2 sources” badge, and keeps the others a tap away. Your unread count means what it says.
02 / AI summaries
The gist before you commit.
AI stays off until you turn it on, then lives behind one button: short, standard, or detailed. Bring your own provider — Anthropic, OpenAI, OpenRouter, GitHub Copilot, or a model running on your own machine. On iPhone, Apple Intelligence can summarize on the device, with nothing sent anywhere.
03 / Digests
Delivered where you actually read.
A scheduled digest of what you missed, sent where you look anyway: email, Telegram, Kindle, or a webhook. Pick the feeds and tags it covers, add AI summaries if you like, and preview it before it goes. Close the app and the reading still finds you.
04 / Keyword alerts
Know the moment it's published.
Some things can't wait for the morning digest. Name the words you care about — or describe what you're after and let the AI judge each new article — limit it to certain feeds or folders, and get pinged by email, Telegram, or a browser notification. Every hit is kept in the alert's history.
iPhone & iPad · in beta
Your feeds in your pocket, even without signal.
A native SwiftUI app, not a web view. It keeps the articles you've loaded, their images too, and queues every read, save and tag while you're offline, then syncs when you're back.
- Swipe between articles. Pull at the end of one for the next, with how many minutes are left as you read.
- Listen. Any article read aloud, carrying on into the next one.
- Full text, even behind a bot wall. When a site blocks the server, the phone fetches the page itself.
- On-device summaries. Apple Intelligence, when you'd rather nothing leaves the phone.
- iPad in three columns, with the same single-key shortcuts as the web.
- Mark as you scroll, swipe to save, long-press to preview — and undo what you scrolled past.
The rest of the tool
Everything a reader needs. Nothing it doesn't.
Twelve things that used to need three apps and a script.
Smart feeds
Filter rules
Triage on arrival.
Match the title, link or summary and mark new articles read, saved or ignored as they come in, with a live preview of what a rule would catch.
Telegram channels
Follow channels like feeds.
Add a public Telegram channel and its posts arrive with everything else — searchable, taggable, deduplicated.
Full-text fetch
Read the whole thing.
When a feed only ships a teaser, one key pulls the full article, cleaned up for reading. Turn it on per feed to make it the default.
Tags & folders
Organized your way.
Group feeds into folders, give articles colored tags in bulk, and filter any list down to what matters now.
Saved & notes
Keep what's worth it.
Save anything for later and attach a private note. Your saved shelf is a queue you control, not an algorithm.
Feed health & stats
See what's working.
Which feeds are failing and why, when each last updated, and how much you actually read, day by day.
OPML & FreshRSS
Bring your feeds, keep your sync.
Import or export OPML in one step, and keep read state in sync with a FreshRSS server.
Atom feeds & API
Your reading, wired up.
Your saved articles and each tag as private Atom feeds, plus a REST API with per-device keys for your own tools.
English & Spanish
Reads in your language.
The web app and the iPhone app speak English and Spanish, dates and plurals included.
Light & dark
Warm in either mode.
The same paper feel, inverted for night. Backgrounds stay warm; the accent stays purple.
Private by default
Your reading, yours alone.
No social graph, no ad tech, no tracking. Your feeds, read state, and notes are your account's business and nobody else's.
Built for the keyboard
One key for everything.
The reader assumes your hands stay on the home row — on the web, and on an iPad with a keyboard. There's a full map a keypress away; here are the ones you'll wear out.
