BriefFeed Reader
Save links, keep context
Only for Mac
Free
Mac
Summarize visible posts, articles, repositories, podcast show notes, and supported videos in Mac Safari, then sync bookmarks with iCloud.
BriefFeed helps you understand what you read and keep useful links and context together.
In Safari on Mac, enable the included BriefFeed extension to see concise summaries beside visible posts, discussions, articles, repositories, podcast show notes, and supported YouTube or Bilibili videos on selected websites. BriefFeed summarizes only content already loaded in the current page. Video summaries use the current video's available transcript, subtitle, timeline text, or chapters—not audio, video frames, comments, danmaku, or recommendations. The extension does not send cookies or account sessions to BriefFeed.
Supported Safari sites include X/Twitter, Bluesky, Jike, Weibo, Reddit, V2EX, Hacker News, GitHub, arXiv, selected article platforms, Apple Podcasts, Xiaoyuzhou, Product Hunt, YouTube, and Bilibili.
Save URLs from iPhone, Safari, the iOS share sheet, or the Mac app. BriefFeed keeps your saved library in sync through your Apple iCloud account, so a link captured on one Apple device is available on the other without creating a separate BriefFeed account.
Optionally connect your own Notion integration to sync explicit Safari bookmarks. The Notion token stays in that Safari extension's local storage, and bookmark data goes directly from Safari to Notion rather than through BriefFeed servers.
For supported public pages, BriefFeed can fetch concise metadata, tags, and a short summary. Unsupported URLs are still saved and can be opened later.
BriefFeed Reader also complements the BriefFeed browser extension. While the Mac app is running, the published extension can exchange saved bookmarks with it through an on-device connection restricted to this Mac. Those bookmarks then join the same iCloud-synced Apple library.
