Show HN: I built an Telegram RSS Reader that sends article summaries
I started building this project almost two years ago for myself. I wanted an RSS reader inside the Telegram app that could send me notifications about new articles.
After building the first version, I used it mainly to stay updated on programming news, new releases, and features. But over time, I realized I didn’t have time to read every article. At the same time, I still wanted to stay informed.
So I added article summaries. It’s simple: the bot extracts the article text, sends it to OpenAI, and generates a short summary—no longer than one screen on my phone—highlighting the key points. If something interests me, I read the full article. If not, I still know what’s new without spending too much time. This helps me stay up to date with industry news.
If you use Telegram for messaging and reading news, try the bot now.
