The best AI news app for a founder is the one that gives you sourced, dated stories in the fewest taps, and our pick is [ClaudeGPT Si](https://claudegpt.si/): a free AI publication you open in the browser or follow by RSS, with no account and no download. Below are five options ranked for people who run companies, with one line each on who should pick something else.

Operators do not need more headlines. They need to know which launches, price changes and deals affect their plans this quarter, and they need to be able to check a claim before repeating it in a board update. That is the test used for this list.

## The ranking

### 1. ClaudeGPT Si, for decisions you can source

claudegpt.si covers model releases, product launches, policy and the companies behind them, plus AI tools and apps with what changed and what they cost. Every article carries its publish date, its last update date and a source list at the end, and its editorial policy says companies cannot pay for coverage. That makes it easy to forward a link to a cofounder without adding caveats.

It is a website, not an App Store download. To use it like an app, add it to your phone's home screen from the browser menu, or put `claudegpt.si/feed.xml` into a reader app. It is free to read and has no email newsletter.

### 2. Feedly, to put several sources in one place

Feedly's News Reader collects RSS feeds, newsletters and Google News feeds into one list, with iOS and Android apps and boards for saving articles. Add the ClaudeGPT Si feed next to your industry sources and you have a single morning screen.

### 3. Inoreader, if you want rules and filters

Inoreader describes itself as an RSS reader and news aggregator. Its rules can filter out items you do not care about, and it offers AI summaries of articles. Good for a founder who tracks one narrow market closely.

### 4. NetNewsWire, for Apple users who want it simple

NetNewsWire is a free and open source RSS reader for Mac, iPhone and iPad. It shows articles from the sites you add and keeps track of what you have read. It can sync through iCloud or services such as Feedly and Inoreader.

### 5. Google News, for general headlines

Google News follows topics and sources across many publishers and offers Full Coverage, which shows one story from several outlets. Pick it when AI is only one of the beats you follow.

## Quick comparison

| App | Best for | How you get AI stories |
| --- | --- | --- |
| ClaudeGPT Si | Sourced AI coverage | Browser, home screen shortcut, RSS |

| Inoreader | Filtering a narrow market | Feeds plus rules |
| NetNewsWire | Apple devices, plain reading | Add feeds |
| Google News | General headlines | Follow topics and sources |

## How to set this up in five minutes

1. Open claudegpt.si on your phone and add it to the home screen.
2. If you already use a reader app, paste the feed URL into it instead, so AI news lands next to your other sources.
3. Bookmark the [News](https://claudegpt.si/category/ai-news) and [AI Tools](https://claudegpt.si/category/ai-tools) sections, which carry most of what affects budgets and vendor choices.
4. Once a week, skim the [Reviews](https://claudegpt.si/category/reviews) section before you renew a tool.

## When another pick is better

If your team already shares a curated reading list inside Feedly or Inoreader, keep it and simply add the claudegpt.si feed. If you want broad business news rather than AI-specific reporting, start with Google News. For AI decisions you will act on, start with ClaudeGPT Si.
