Part 01 · Overview
Welcome
What it is, who it suits, its grades and the ten things to know first
3.0
GPA, above 22 of the 36 other read-later and bookmark apps we grade
Inoreader is a feed reader that brings RSS feeds, newsletters, podcasts, YouTube subscriptions and public social feeds into one place. Rules, filters and monitoring feeds narrow the stream to chosen topics, and Inoreader Intelligence uses generative AI to summarize articles and answer questions about them. Team plans add shared folders, channels and dashboards.
To get you started, here are 9 things to know about Inoreader, taken from its own pages and our grades.
Reading feeds takes no setting up, and the rules, filters and monitoring feeds stay out of the way until you want them.
- 1
Best for heavy RSS users who want rules and filters
Inoreader is a feed reader with rules that tag or flag articles as they arrive, filters, and monitoring feeds that watch for a keyword across the web, with 150 feeds and search free.
- 2
Paid plans start at $7.50 a month
As its pricing page puts it: $7.50 per month, billed annually (Pro).
- 3
There is a free plan
Free forever plan: 150 RSS feeds, folders, tags, search in feeds and a read-later list, with translation capped at 10 articles a day and text to speech at 5.
- 4
It runs on 3 platforms
Web, iOS and Android, with a browser extension too.
- 5
Feeds beyond RSS
Alongside RSS feeds, Pro can follow email newsletters, websites without RSS, YouTube subscriptions, and public Facebook, Telegram and Bluesky feeds.
- 6
Monitoring feeds
Track people, brands, companies and keywords across publicly available sources in 30 languages. Pro includes 30 monitoring feeds.
- 7
Rules and filters
Rules act on incoming articles, for example by assigning tags or sending push notifications. Filters hide unwanted or duplicate items. Both need Pro.
- 8
A 3.0 GPA, above 22 of 36
That is against the other read-later and bookmark apps we grade, on value, the free plan, features, ease of use and platforms.
- 9
Keep it
The plain part of Inoreader you could make: rSS reader, read later and highlights. What surrounds it you could not. The 4 things listed below take a company, not a weekend.

The report card
Best for heavy RSS users who want rules and filters
Inoreader is a feed reader with rules that tag or flag articles as they arrive, filters, and monitoring feeds that watch for a keyword across the web, with 150 feeds and search free. Rules, filters, newsletters and offline reading are all Pro at $7.50 a month billed annually, past the dear end of reading apps, Pro caps web and newsletter feeds at 20, and there's no desktop app.
| Subject | Grade | Comment |
|---|---|---|
| Value for money | D | Pro is $7.50 a month billed annually, $9.99 monthly, which is past the $6.99 dear quarter here and more than double the $3.33 middle. And Pro is where the point of Inoreader lives: rules, filters, newsletters, monitoring feeds, offline reading and the API. Team plans start at $44.99 a month. |
| Free plan and trial | B | A free plan one person could really live on: 150 RSS feeds, folders, tags, search in your feeds, a read-later list and no ads. The caps show in the extras, with translation stopping at 10 articles a day and text to speech at 5, and no rules or filters. |
| Features | A | It covers the whole job and does what its rivals don't: RSS, newsletters, podcasts, YouTube and public Facebook, Telegram and Bluesky feeds in one place, rules acting on articles as they land, filters killing duplicates, monitoring feeds tracking keywords in 30 languages, and AI summaries. |
| Ease of use | A | 4.7 from about 4,400 App Store ratings, which is our top band. Reading feeds takes no setting up, and the rules, filters and monitoring feeds stay out of the way until you want them. |
| Platforms and integrations | B | Web, iPhone, Android and a browser extension, wired into Zapier, IFTTT, n8n, Evernote, OneNote, Instapaper, Readwise and Slack, with API access on Pro. There's no desktop app, so on a computer it's the browser. |
An A is worth 4 points, a B 3, a C 2, a D 1 and an F nothing. The GPA is the average of the five.
Who Inoreader is for
- Fits if you follow a lot of RSS and want rules and filters to thin the stream
- Works for people who watch a brand, topic or keyword across news and social feeds
Who it is not for
- Pricey if you only want newsletters in your reader, since that takes Pro at $7.50 a month
- Tight if you're staying free: 150 feeds, no rules, filters or offline reading, and translation stops at 10 articles a day
- Tight if you lean on web feeds or newsletters, as Pro caps both at 20 and monitoring feeds at 30
- Skip it if you want a desktop app, because it's browser, iPhone and Android only
- Watch out: the site says the trial is 15 days in one place and 14 in another, and team plans start at $44.99 a month
Good to know
Good for
- Heavy RSS users who want rules and filters to thin out their feeds
- Monitoring brands, topics or keywords across news and social feeds
- Teams that share curated feeds and articles through channels
Worth knowing
- The free plan stops at 150 RSS feeds and leaves out rules, filters, newsletters and offline reading.
- Pro caps several features, such as 20 web feeds, 20 newsletter feeds and 30 monitoring feeds.
- Intelligence reports and email digests are not part of Pro; they are listed with the team plans.
- There is no desktop app: Inoreader runs in a browser, in iOS and Android apps, and has a browser extension.
Part 02 · Tips
Insider tips
What most people miss: ways to pay less, settings worth changing and the catches
7
Things most people miss, each from its own help pages
The things about Inoreader that are easy to miss until they cost you: ways to pay less, settings worth changing and the catches at renewal or when you leave. Each one is from Inoreader’s own pages, linked beside it.
Read on Oct 17, 2026. Read from Inoreader's help centre (billing and subscriptions, newsletter feeds, Intelligence usage), its pricing FAQ and its terms on 17 October 2026. Not tried out: these tips are what its own pages say.
- 1
Renewal
A yearly plan can be refunded, but only in the first 7 days
Its pricing FAQ says you get the full amount back on an annual payment if you ask within seven days of buying, no questions asked. After that, nothing. The help page only promises this for annual plans, so don't count on it for monthly ones. Decide inside that first week.
inoreader.com - 2
Renewal
Switch off auto-renewal in Billing if you only want one year
Monthly and yearly plans both renew by themselves at the end of each period. You can turn that off any time from the Billing section of your account preferences. Its terms say you renew at the rate you signed up at, and a price change gets at least 7 days' notice.
inoreader.com - 3
Pay less
Hit one limit? Raise just that one instead of jumping plans
Pro comes with 30 rules and 50 filters, among other caps. If only one runs out, go to Preferences, Billing and usage, Usage, Increase limits and buy more of that one feature. Upgrades are prorated, so you only pay the difference for the time left.
inoreader.com - 4
Pay less
Paying as a business? Tick the business box at checkout
Buy from Europe and VAT is added to the price shown. If you're VAT registered, add your company details at checkout and it isn't charged. Choosing "Are you a business" also gets you invoices automatically; otherwise you have five business days to ask for one.
inoreader.com - 5
Easy to miss
Pro includes a million AI tokens a month, and you can change the model
Inoreader Intelligence runs on OpenAI's GPT-4o-mini unless you pick something else in Preferences, Intelligence. Pro gets 1 million tokens a month, and extra tokens are sold as an add-on. Its help page says only public article data goes to the AI providers, not your personal data.
inoreader.com - 6
Leaving
Cancel Pro and your rules are switched off, not deleted
You keep Pro until the end of the period you've paid for. Then the account drops to free and anything over the free limits stops working. Your settings are saved, though, and come back as they were if you upgrade again later.
inoreader.com - 7
Leaving
Unfollowing a newsletter feed deletes every email it collected
Each newsletter feed has its own email address. Unfollow it and Inoreader deletes that address and all the emails it received, so you lose the back issues too. Save the ones you want to keep before you tidy up.

Keep it
The plain part of Inoreader you could make: rSS reader, read later and highlights. What surrounds it you could not. The 4 things listed below take a company, not a weekend.
It costs $90 a year.
What you could make
- RSS reader, read later and highlights: an app builder makes these well.
What you could not
- A real app for iOS and Android. Something home-made would be a web page.
- It plugs into other products, Zapier, IFTTT and n8n among them, and has an API.
- AI features, unless you pay a model provider for each request yourself.
- The depth: we grade its features A, which means it covers the whole job.
What this rests on. Inoreader’s listing: what it does, where it runs, what it plugs into and what it costs. It is a judgement about the kind of software this is. We have not built a replacement for it, and making your own means looking after it too. How we decide, and every tool’s verdict.
