About Feedly
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.
About Pocket
Pocket launched in 2007 as Read It Later, pioneered the modern read-later category, and was acquired by Mozilla in 2017. For nearly two decades it was the default way to save web articles and read them later on any device, with a clean reader view and optional offline access. Mozilla shut Pocket down on July 8, 2025. All user data was permanently deleted on November 12, 2025. The apps and extensions no longer work, and any integrations built against the Pocket API have stopped. If you still have an export file from before that date, most modern alternatives (Instapaper, Readwise Reader, Raindrop, Matter, Keep) can import it.
