What is it?

Folo is an open-source RSS reader that collects blogs, news sites, newsletters, podcasts, video channels and social feeds into a single timeline. Users can subscribe to any RSS, Atom or JSON feed, or to RSSHub routes for sites without feeds, and import or export OPML to move from another reader.

The app adds AI features on top of reading. Users can ask questions about an article, a feed or a folder, choose their own AI model or supply an API key, and get AI translations in English, Chinese, Japanese or French. Timeline summaries condense many new entries into a digest, and scheduled AI tasks can produce daily or weekly briefings and send them to chat or email.

Folo runs in the browser and on iOS, Android, macOS, Windows and Linux, with read status, subscriptions and stars kept in sync across devices. Integrations send articles to tools such as Obsidian, Readwise, Zotero and Instapaper, and Actions can filter, star or notify on new entries.
