What is Feedly?
Feedly is a news reader and AI-powered research platform that pulls articles from websites, blogs, industry publications, newsletters and Google News keyword feeds into one organized feed. Marketers and researchers use it to follow competitors, industry news and emerging topics without visiting dozens of sites. The free reader works on the web, iOS and Android, and browser extensions let you save pages as you browse.
Beyond the reader, Feedly offers paid plans with AI features. Pro+ adds AI feeds that scan large volumes of articles and posts for topics you define, plus an RSS Builder for sites without feeds. Enterprise products include Market Intelligence for competitor and trend tracking and Threat Intelligence for security teams, which uses AI agents, a threat graph and report tools. Content can be shared to Slack, Teams, Buffer and note apps. Teams that outgrow the reader can move up to the AI-driven intelligence products without switching vendors.
