What is NewsBlur?
NewsBlur is a personal news reader for following RSS feeds, newsletters and websites. You train it with likes and dislikes by author, tag, title or text, and paid tiers add an Ask AI feature and a daily briefing that summarizes your top stories.
It can follow sites that lack RSS, cluster duplicate stories, search across subscriptions, read stories aloud and keep a searchable archive. Native iOS and Android apps are offered, and the top tiers include an MCP server and command line tool so AI agents can work with your feeds. Every plan starts with a 30-day premium trial.
