Welcome to Scour!

Scour noisy news feeds, blogs, and sources like Hacker News to find articles related your interests.

How It Works

Scour regularly pulls content from your feeds (RSS, Atom, Reddit, Bluesky, Substack, Medium, and more).

We use an AI embedding model to compare each of the posts to your interests and find the pieces that are most relevant for you.

Frequently Asked Questions
Are user feeds exposed as RSS/Atom feeds?
Yes! You can append /rss.xml or /atom.xml to the end of any user feed URL to get an RSS or Atom feed of that user's posts.
Is Scour free?
It is! I'm also planning to add additional paid features.
Is it open source?
Not yet, but I'm thinking about open sourcing it in the not too distant future.
Why are you building this?
I like keeping up with tech and global news. However, there are many great content feeds that are too noisy to keep up with. Aggregators like Hacker News, Lobsters, and Reddit can be nice but they often have plenty of posts that I'm not interested in. Social aggreggators in particular can also miss great content that doesn't happen to go viral (ever tried submitting something to Hacker News, only for it to get buried before it escapes the Newest page?). Scour keeps an eye on noisy feeds for you and finds the content that's related to your interests.
