PageForth showing a list of sources on the left, an article list in the middle, and an AI-summarized article on the right — **Fig. 1** — The reader. Sources at left, the day's articles down the middle, the gist of the open story at right.

Don't waste your time.

The Summary

Every article, pre-read.

Open an article and the gist is already there. A short lead, the key bullets, the point. Skim the ones you don't care about. Read the ones you do. The full article is always one click away.

The Sources

RSS is dead.

Most sites don't even bother with feeds anymore. PageForth doesn't need them. Paste in any page — a blog, a newsletter, Hacker News, an author's archive — and it figures out what's an article and what isn't.

The Add Source dialog in PageForth - a URL input and a confirm button, layered over a darkened reader pane — **Fig. 3** — Paste any URL. PageForth finds the articles on it.

For You

Love it or leave it.

Tap the heart on the ones that land. Thumbs-down the ones that don't. The For You tab puts the next thing you'll want to read at the top. It gets better the more you use it.

Built by Nate Kontny. I've been building software for 25+ years, from Highrise and Draft to two trips through Y Combinator. These days I'm a Staff Engineer at Fivetran, after helping build Census as a founding engineer through its acquisition. PageForth is the kind of tool I like making: small, opinionated, and built to remove steps from things you do every day.
