Skimlet
No feeds to scroll, nothing important missed

Take back your
information diet

Social feeds let an algorithm decide what you see and how long you stay. Skimlet reads only the writers, sites and channels you choose. AI reads every piece first, scoring, summarizing and translating it, and puts what's actually worth your time at the top.

You decide what you read

No recommendation algorithm. Only the sources you chose.

  • Paste a site, channel or profile link and it's recognized and followed
  • Organize by topic and read one topic at a time
  • When today's picks are done, you're done

AI reads it first

Every piece, read for you first

As soon as something new arrives, AI reads it: a 1–10 score with a one-line reason, then a few key points. What deserves a close read goes to the top; what a summary covers, you can skim.

  • Every score comes with its reason
  • Tap “useful / not useful” and it learns your taste
  • Low scores go to “Filtered”, not away; you can always look

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

How is this different from social media?

Social feeds are decided by the platform's algorithm, which is built to keep you there longer. Skimlet reads only the sources you chose and the list ends; AI helps you decide faster what's worth reading, not scroll more.

Isn't AI scoring just another algorithm?

AI only ranks and summarizes within the sources you picked; it never pushes in anything you didn't choose. Every score shows its reason, low scores stay visible under “Filtered”, and “useful / not useful” lets you correct it any time.

What can I follow?

Most blogs, news sites and tech communities, plus YouTube channels, Bilibili creators, Zhihu writers and more. Paste a link and Skimlet tells you whether it can follow it.

What happens to the content I read?

It's used only to produce your scores, summaries and translations. For that, content is processed by the AI service we use; it's not used for anything else, and never for ads.
