Let us do the heavy work.
Powerful Parsing
Never think about normalizing feed data ever again. No matter what kind of feed it is: RSS, ATOM, RDF, JSON - all data will be normalized and made accessible in the same structure, every time - including images - so you can reliably integrate it into your software.
Nearly real-time
When you subscribe to feeds through our API, we'll check those feeds every few minutes and will automatically send out a webhook to your system with all new items. We check every feed in a different interval, depending on the average amount of new items per hour.
Detailed Statistics
Log into your Dashboard to view detailed statistics about all of your Subscriptions — how many items were sent in the past days, how many Subscriptions are currently paused and more.
Debugging made easy
On your personal Dashboard, you'll see the logs of all pushed webhooks and why they might have failed. You can view the error details and resend individual webhooks to make debugging as simple as possible.
