A daily news briefing, without the noise.
FEEDPUNK reads more than a hundred RSS feeds, dedupes the chatter, and synthesizes a fresh briefing every few hours. Main, finance, tech, and a growing set of regional editions. No tracking, no paywall.
Dense, honest, and yours to read.
RSS feeds plus text-only mirrors of the wires (lite.cnn.com, text.npr.org).
One main brief plus finance, tech, and regional editions for the states we cover.
Every edition refreshes every three hours, on its own local clock.
No analytics, no ad SDKs, no behavioral profile. Just the page you asked for.
Four steps from feed to page.
Every briefing is rebuilt from scratch on a schedule. No archives are rewritten. No silent edits.
Collect
Fetches every configured feed in parallel, follows redirects, and pulls article bodies where the feed gives a hint of what to read.
Dedupe
Same story across the AP, Reuters, and a regional outlet collapses into one entry. The wires get cited, but only once.
Synthesize
A modern LLM reads the deduped pool and writes a calm, structured briefing. Voice is restrained on purpose: facts first, dry wit second.
Publish
Briefings are rendered to plain HTML ahead of time. The page weighs almost nothing and works on a flip phone.
Editions, each with a focus.
Same pipeline, different feed mix and prompt. Regional editions skew toward state-and-local outlets you'd otherwise have to hunt down.
What FEEDPUNK won't do.
No tracking, no ads, no SDKs
The page you load is the page that's served. There is nothing else watching.
No paywall, no signup, no email capture
If you can read this sentence, you can read every brief on the site.
No invented facts, no AI predictions
The model summarizes what reporters reported. It doesn't speculate, project, or pretend to know what comes next.
No silent rewrites
Briefings are timestamped and immutable once published. Updates ship as the next briefing, not as a quiet edit to the last one.
No engagement loops
There's no feed to scroll, no notifications to subscribe to, no "you might also like." Read the brief; close the tab.
FEEDPUNK is an opinionated answer to news fatigue. It won't tell you everything. It won't keep you scrolling. It will tell you what happened today, in roughly the time it takes to drink a coffee.
