Want your RSS feeds delivered to your inbox instead of living in a reader you forget to open? Here are the best ways to do it in 2026, from dead-simple single-feed senders to all-in-one digests that fold feeds, newsletters, and more into one summarized email.
Pick by intent first
The right tool depends on what you are trying to do:
- Get one or two blogs by email: a single-feed sender.
- Combine many feeds into one daily email: a digest tool.
- Combine feeds with newsletters, YouTube, and docs, summarized: an all-in-one brief.
- Automate it yourself: a workflow tool.
The tools
Skimless
Best when "RSS" is only part of what you follow. Skimless combines RSS feeds with email newsletters, YouTube channels, docs, and changelogs into one daily brief, summarized and deduped, structured as what shipped, what changed, and what to skip. It links back to every source and can be delivered as audio. Choose it if you want one brief for everything, not a feed-only digest.
Blogtrottr
The classic free single-feed option. Paste a feed, get new items in your inbox. Perfect for one to three feeds; gets noisy beyond that because each feed emails you separately.
Feedrabbit
Similar to Blogtrottr with a friendlier setup and some digest options. Good lightweight choice for a small number of feeds.
Inoreader
A full feed reader that can also send digests. Powerful filters and rules if you want control; more tool than most casual readers need. See the Inoreader alternative comparison.
Zapier (RSS by Zapier + Digest by Zapier)
The DIY route. Build a workflow that batches feed items and emails a digest on a schedule, with optional AI summarization. Most flexible, but you maintain it.
MailerLite / FeedOtter
These are for publishers who want to email their own blog's RSS to a mailing list, not for personal reading. Worth knowing so you do not pick the wrong category.
Recommendation
- One or two feeds: Blogtrottr or Feedrabbit.
- Many feeds, want control: Inoreader.
- Want to automate: Zapier.
- Feeds plus newsletters, YouTube, and docs, summarized into one brief (and audio): Skimless.
