Tidyread

A Recipe holds a set of RSS feeds plus its own prompt, schedule, and language. That structure lets you separate work reading from hobby reading without maintaining two accounts. You can create as many as you want on the free plan and pause any of them at a moment's notice.

Each Recipe carries a prompt that tells the model what to extract. Ask for funding figures and founder names in one, and for method notes and benchmarks in another. The output changes with the instruction, which is the main reason two users can get very different digests from the same feed list.

Digests arrive at a time you set, by push notification and email. Nothing streams at you during the day, so the reading gets a fixed slot instead of filling every gap. Changing the hour takes one edit and applies to the next cycle.

Filters run before summarization. You can block keywords, exclude companies, or describe the kind of post you don't want and let the model judge. Cutting items early keeps the digest short and saves tokens for the posts that survive.

A Recipe can summarize in a language other than the source. English feeds can land as a Spanish or Japanese digest, and the original links stay in place for a closer read. For anyone who follows overseas press, this removes a separate translation step.

The extension pulls the full article body at up to 20 requests a minute on the free tier, then strips ads and sidebars. You get the actual argument rather than the first two paragraphs an RSS excerpt usually ships with. The reading view also carries a light and dark mode.

Tidyread runs as a Chrome or Edge extension, and the extension is where digests open. A Raycast extension serves Mac users who would rather trigger the day's digest from a launcher. Setup takes a few clicks. The web dashboard alone won't display your reading queue.
