Opyt vs Feedly

A feed reader shows you the flow and forgets it. Opyt keeps the stock and can count it.

Feed readers are the only other category that keeps working while you sleep, and both Feedly and Inoreader layer AI over the incoming flow to cut what you do not want to see.

But a reader's unit is a source you subscribed to, and its AI filters an incoming flow. Opyt's unit is a question and a person, and its loop is acquisition: it goes to arXiv, GitHub, OpenAlex, X and Substack for work nobody published to a feed you follow. A reader also has no memory; yesterday's stream is gone.

At a glance

	Opyt	Feedly
Unit	A person, and a topic you follow	A source you subscribed to
Where the model runs	Nowhere. Ranking is BM25 keyword search	Filtering the incoming flow
Memory	A store you can query years later	An unread count
Back catalog	A tracked person's whole archive	What publishes from today onward
Sources without a feed	Reached by your topics' watches	Out of scope
Interruption	None; finds wait until you ask	A feed to keep up with

Where Feedly is better

News, breadth and immediacy. Any site that publishes a feed, and it lands today instead of on the next ingest.
Keeping up with an industry, which is a job Opyt does not do.
Mobile apps, team tiers and market-intelligence products.
It works from day one with no history.

Where Opyt is better

Retention. A corpus you can count by author, source and month, against an unread number that resets.
It reaches sources that publish no feed at all.
A person's available back catalog from one confirmation, not only what they publish after you subscribe.
Nothing is pushed at you. Finds wait in a queue until you want them.

Which one

Pick Feedly if

You want to keep up with an industry daily
Breadth matters more than depth
You want it on a phone

Pick Opyt if

You want the archive, not the stream
You want to ask what you read last spring
Your sources do not all have feeds

A reader is better at today. Opyt is better at everything before today.
