About Feed Creator

Feed Creator generates an RSS feed from any web page. Items can be detected automatically with AI, or picked out with simple or advanced CSS selectors for the item, title, description, URL, date and image. A JavaScript-rendering fetch mode is available for pages that build their content in the browser.

Keep and remove filters match URL segments, words in titles or descriptions, or publication age. Other options cover custom User-Agent, Referer and Cookie headers, duplicate handling, item order and GUID generation. It suits people comfortable with CSS selectors who want precise control over a feed.

Strengths

  • Fine-grained CSS selectors for every feed field
  • Automatic AI detection and JavaScript rendering options
  • Keep and remove filters by keyword, URL or age
  • Custom HTTP headers for awkward sites

Limitations

  • Selector options take some HTML knowledge to use well
  • Some use requires a premium access key

    FreeProprietaryWeb

    Open RSS is a free non-profit service without accounts or tracking that publishes feeds for sites it has implemented, so you cannot build feeds for arbitrary pages.
