Overview
Cluck's Feed is a focused reading app that consolidates Gmail newsletters and subscribed RSS feeds into one distraction-free inbox. Instead of digging through your email for the newsletters you actually want to read, you get a clean reading interface with consistent formatting across all your sources.
The app generates a daily personalized recommendation set using a deterministic ranking algorithm, with an optional AI ranking layer (via OpenRouter) that learns your reading preferences over time. Read progress and saved items are tracked across both newsletters and RSS feeds.
