Can Claude read RSS feeds?

Not on its own — Claude has no built-in RSS reader. Newsmind bridges the gap: it connects your RSS/Atom feeds to Claude over the Model Context Protocol (MCP) so Claude can read, summarize, and search them.

How do I connect RSS to Claude?

Sign up for Newsmind, add your feeds, then paste https://newsmind.app/mcp into Claude's Custom Connectors. OAuth handles authentication. Claude can then read your subscriptions on demand.

Does this work with Claude Desktop and the Claude mobile apps?

Yes. Newsmind works with Claude on web, desktop, iOS, and Android — anywhere Claude supports MCP connectors.

Can I set up alerts for keywords?

Yes. Newsmind watches let you save a keyword or topic; Claude surfaces new matches each session, and you can have matches delivered by email.

Why not just paste links into Claude?

You can paste a single article into Claude — but that doesn't scale to a morning's worth of news across dozens of sources. Newsmind keeps your feeds polled and full article text extracted, so Claude works from a live, complete picture instead of whatever you happened to paste. It tracks what you've already seen with resumable cursors, dedupes the same story across outlets, and exposes purpose-built tools so Claude spends its reasoning on your questions, not on plumbing. Built on open standards (MCP for Claude, OpenAPI for ChatGPT) so you're never locked to one model.
