What is Tidyread?

Tidyread is an AI summarizer tool that turns your RSS feeds into scheduled AI digests. Tidyread turns your RSS subscriptions into scheduled AI digests. Recipes bundle feeds, custom summary prompts and delivery times, with keyword and AI filtering to cut noise.

Tidyread is a reading tool built around a single idea: a subscriber's feed list should produce a finished digest, not an endless queue of unread items. The service takes the RSS feeds a user already follows, runs the articles through large language models, and delivers the condensed result at a moment the user chooses. Rather than acting as another reader to check constantly, it behaves more like a scheduled briefing that arrives once the work has been done. The organising concept is the Recipe. A Recipe bundles a set of custom RSS feeds, a summary prompt written for that particular topic, and a delivery time. Because prompts are per Recipe, a technical feed list can be summarised one way while a markets or research list uses a different instruction, so each digest matches what the reader actually needs from that subject. Recipes can be paused and restarted, which lets a user silence, say, industry news during a quiet week without deleting the setup. A filtering layer adds keyword and AI prompt based rules that strip out titles and items the reader does not care about before they ever reach the digest. The practical loop is short. Feeds are collected, content is summarised and optionally translated, and the digest is pushed at the configured hour. A browser extension can gather the day's feeds and notify the user when processing finishes, which several users describe as a virtual secretary reading out what is new. The clean reading interface is aimed at people who want the gist of many sources in minutes. Tidyread suits heavy RSS users, researchers, finance students, developers and analysts who track many sources and want topical aggregation rather than site by site scrolling. It sits between a traditional RSS reader and a general summarisation chatbot: it keeps the subscription model but adds scheduling, per topic prompts and filtering. Pricing tiers and usage limits are not detailed on the homepage.

How do you use Tidyread?

  1. 1Create a Recipe
    Start a new Recipe, which is the container for one feed list, one summary prompt and one delivery time. Give it a name that reflects the topic you are tracking.
  2. 2Add your RSS feeds
    Attach the feeds that belong to this topic. Keep a Recipe narrow, so a single prompt can serve every source inside it.
  3. 3Write the summary prompt
    Describe the output you want: length, language, what to emphasise and what to skip. Translation can be requested here as well.
  4. 4Set filters and delivery time
    Add keyword or AI prompt filters to drop items you do not want, then choose the time the digest should be pushed to you.
  5. 5Install the browser extension
    The extension collects the day's feeds, processes them with the model and notifies you when the digest is ready, which saves checking back manually.
  6. 6Read, then pause or adjust
    Review the digest, then pause Recipes that are off topic for now and refine prompts where the summaries fell short.

Pros and cons

Pros

  • Recipes keep separate feed lists, prompts and delivery schedules, so a technical digest and a finance digest can coexist without mixingAI
  • Keyword and AI prompt filtering removes unwanted items before summarisation, not after the reader has already scrolled past themAI
  • Scheduled push delivery fits reading into a defined slot instead of inviting constant checkingAI
  • Summaries and translation are configurable per Recipe, which lets the output style match each topicAI
  • Users report a clean reading interface and a browser extension that notifies when the day's digest is readyAI

Cons

  • Sources are limited to RSS feeds, so newsletters, social accounts and paywalled sites without a feed are out of reachAI
  • No option to plug in your own LLM or third party API, a request raised repeatedly by users in the feedback shown on the siteAI
  • Summary volume is capped by plan, and users cite that article limit as the main practical drawbackAI
  • Pricing tiers, limits and any free allowance are not explained on the homepage, so cost has to be checked elsewhereAI
  • The experience depends on how well you write prompts and filters; weak instructions produce summaries that miss the pointAI
