Export your whole feed list to OPML (a universal feed list) and move it to another reader. We won't hold your library hostage.
Pricing questions
Is there a premium tier in the web reader?
There isn’t, and we don’t plan one for basic functionality. The web reader stays free with no limit on feeds or articles.
Do you charge for the feed directory?
No. The 857-feed directory and the 8 starter packs are free for everyone, no account required.
How do you fund a free product?
Infrastructure cost is minimal: static files and one stateless proxy with no database. Oatmeal Feed is part of the Zordon Intelligence portfolio, not a standalone business that must pay for itself with ads.
Could my data become paid later?
No. OPML export is and will stay free. We won’t lock your library behind a paywall and we won’t start selling data, because we simply don’t have it.
