Both tools do their category well, but the specifics differ. Here's what each one is good at and where it tends to fall short.
Evernote is the grandfather of note-taking apps and the inventor of the modern Web Clipper. After Bending Spoons acquired it in 2022, the product was rebuilt, repriced, and refocused on a more AI-forward direction. The current plans are Free (50 notes total), Starter ($8.25/mo or $99/yr), Advanced ($14.17/mo or $249.99/yr), and Enterprise. Advanced includes the full AI suite: AI Transcribe, AI Rewrite, AI Text-to-Speech, AI Meeting Notes, AI Diagrams, and AI Detector. The Web Clipper still saves full page context (not just links) and is the feature that pulls read-later workflows into Evernote's orbit.
Feedly is the largest RSS reader on the web, with a free tier capped at 100 feeds and Pro/Pro+ plans that layer on AI summaries (Leo), team boards, web alerts, and enterprise intelligence. Pro is $6.99/mo, Pro+ is $12.99/mo (annual billing only), and Enterprise covers the threat and market intelligence verticals at custom pricing. The product has spent the last several years pivoting from consumer RSS to a serious monitoring and research platform. The free tier is still a legitimate RSS reader; the paid tiers are increasingly aimed at analysts, PR teams, and security researchers who need to track topics across thousands of sources.
