Guide to AI Brief

Learn how to generate summaries for RSS feeds with AI

AI Brief lets you generate summaries from your RSS feeds using AI. Instead of reading every article, you get a single, structured write-up covering the most important updates.

What Is AI Brief?

AI Brief reads articles from your RSS feed and generates a written summary using AI.

You can use it to:

  • Summarize multiple articles into one digest

  • Generate briefs on demand

  • Send summaries to Discord, Telegram, Slack, email, or webhooks

  • Display summaries on your website or app as a widget

  • Replace your feed content with AI-generated briefs

AI Brief is generated manually whenever you need it. It runs on a credit system.


New Brief vs. Regenerate

AI Brief has two different actions depending on your goal.

New Brief creates a new brief using the latest articles in your feed.

  • Uses your current settings (model, personality, format, etc.)

  • Pulls new articles based on your Source Articles setting

  • Generates a fresh output

  • Consumes credits

Regenerate creates a new version of an existing brief.

  • Uses the same articles (no re-fetching)

  • Applies your current settings

  • Useful if you want to improve or adjust the output

  • Consumes credits
