Inoreader Pricing 2026: Free vs Pro Cost (Is It Free?)

Readless Team9 min read
On this page

Inoreader Free supports 150 RSS subscriptions and search within collected articles. Newsletter intake and web feeds require Pro. Pro costs US$90 billed annually (US$7.50/month equivalent) or US$9.99 billed monthly, with 2,500 RSS subscriptions and 1 million Intelligence tokens per month. This documentation-based comparison checks the current pricing page and linked feature guides on October 16, 2026; it is not a hands-on accuracy benchmark.

Key Takeaways
  • Free means 150 RSS subscriptions and collected-article search. The 20-newsletter allowance and 20 web feeds belong to Pro.
  • Pro annual billing charges US$90 upfront. US$7.50 is its monthly equivalent; monthly billing charges US$9.99 each month.
  • Pro includes article AI with 1 million tokens per month. Reports and BYOAI have additional plan/add-on conditions; Team quotas are pooled, not a fixed allowance per member.
  • Trial and refund are different. The current Intelligence page advertises 14 days; the annual refund window concerns a payment already made.
  • API access has eligibility and usage conditions. Pro is required for ordinary uses; the developer portal describes a public-app exception and sales/custom terms.
  • Compare delivery as well as intake. Inoreader and Readless both support newsletter workflows, with different plan and output choices.

Is Inoreader Free in 2026?

Free is an ongoing plan, rather than the Pro trial. It supports 150 RSS subscriptions, collected-article search and the web/mobile reader. It is ad-supported. Newsletter intake, web feeds, monitoring, rules, filters and Intelligence are paid features. See the Free/Pro comparison before choosing a plan.

The newsletter feature guide specifies Pro with 20 newsletter feeds and add-on capacity. Web feeds for sites without RSS are also paid features. The 150 RSS limit is a separate allowance; do not add newsletter and web-feed quotas to the Free plan. Public offers should be checked directly rather than treating old Supporter or lifetime-plan listings as current offers.

How Much Does Inoreader Pro Cost?

Annual Pro charges US$90 upfront; monthly Pro charges US$9.99 each month. Twelve monthly payments total US$119.88, so annual billing costs US$29.88 less over the same twelve months (about 24.9%). That arithmetic does not make US$119.88 a separately sold annual plan. The pricing FAQ describes a seven-day refund window for annual purchases. This is post-purchase protection, not extra free-trial time; the current Intelligence page advertises a 14-day trial. Check checkout terms and taxes for your account.

Team prices cover the named team size, not each seat. The enterprise page lists Team / Team Intelligence respectively at $44.99 / $64.99 per month for 3 members, $74.99 / $99.99 for 5, $119.99 / $169.99 for 10, $224.99 / $319.99 for 20 and $374.99 / $629.99 for 50. These are two plan columns, not annual versus monthly rates. Members receive Pro features; Team feature pools are shared. Confirm billing and required add-ons with Inoreader. See the three-reader pricing comparison for other workflows.

Inoreader Intelligence: AI Tokens and the April 2026 BYOAI Launch

Individual Pro includes 1 million Intelligence tokens per month for article features such as summaries, questions and suggested tags. Current Intelligence terms distinguish this allowance from additional tokens, Intelligence reports and own-key access. Team limits use shared pools rather than the old per-member quota. Rules can automate article summaries; this is different from generating a report across multiple articles.

On April 14, 2026, Inoreader added platform choice and BYOAI: connect your own OpenAI, Mistral AI, or Anthropic API key and select the model. There's a nuance worth catching. Platform selection is available on Pro, but connecting your own key and choosing a model requires the Intelligence add-on or a Team Intelligence plan.

Individual Pro1M tokens/monthEligible Intelligence add-on requiredToken use and report/add-on terms
TeamPro article features for membersDistinguish Team IntelligenceShared Team limits
Team Intelligence / CustomShared or agreed allowanceTeam Intelligence or eligible Custom agreementRequired resources, administrator and provider charges

Scheduled Intelligence reports can analyze multiple articles from folders or tags and save the result as an article. They require the eligible Pro/Custom add-on or Team Intelligence. Separately, Email Digests are included with Team and available through eligible Custom add-on arrangements; ordinary rules can email individual articles. To evaluate a plan, try your own articles and check summary accuracy, references, token use and delivery. This article does not report a measured time-saving or accuracy experiment.

Inoreader API Pricing for Developers

The developer portal describes an exception for developers building public apps on platforms where Inoreader is unavailable; other uses require Pro. Contact sales for a quote or to confirm commercial/custom terms. Register an application and confirm permission and commercial/custom terms for your use. The documented Pro defaults are 100 requests per day in each of two API zones, not unlimited calls. Team includes one shared developer app; higher limits or additional apps have separate terms.

Inoreader vs Feedly Pricing: Which Is Cheaper?

Compare annual commitments and required features, rather than treating monthly equivalents as monthly checkout prices. Feedly Pro is $72/year ($6/month equivalent). Pro+ advertises a $99 first-year offer ($8.25/month equivalent), alongside a $144/year regular price ($12/month equivalent). These are annual billing terms, not verified month-to-month offers. See Feedly’s current purchase page. Inoreader Pro is US$90/year or US$9.99 billed monthly and includes article Intelligence; Feedly’s AI and newsletter features depend on its paid tier. Both retain permanent free RSS plans. Pro+ AI Feeds help filter sources; generative AI Actions for selected-article summaries and synthesis require an eligible Market Intelligence plan. Do not assume Pro+ includes those generative features.

NewsBlur Premium is $36/year and Archive is $99/year; Archive includes Ask AI, duplicate grouping and daily briefing. Feedbin is $7/month or $70/year, with a dedicated newsletter email address. Neither price alone establishes which workflow is best. Compare the features and plan conditions you will actually use.

How Inoreader and Readless handle newsletter workflows

Inoreader combines source organization, reading and paid automation; Readless sends scheduled summaries of eligible newsletters, Substack content and RSS. Readless Pro is US$4.90/month billed monthly, with up to 3 schedules and Concise or Detailed source summaries. Hot Topics can highlight a specific story covered by at least two distinct newsletter senders; source summaries remain separate. Max is US$9/month billed monthly and adds optional Synthesis with source references and up to 8 schedules. Digests depend on content Readless receives or can access and that is eligible for the schedule. AI can omit context or make mistakes; check important details against available originals. Publisher access restrictions and stored-content limits apply.

Compare intake, summaries and delivery
  • Repeated coverage and reports. Inoreader has duplicate filters and scheduled multi-article reports with plan/add-on conditions. Readless Pro keeps source summaries separate and can show story-specific Hot Topics; Max adds optional Synthesis. Neither description is a promise to preserve every point or remove every repetition.
  • Email intake and output. Inoreader Pro accepts newsletter feeds at @ino.to; its Email Digests eligibility differs from ordinary rules that email individual articles. Readless supplies a @mail.readless.app receiving address and sends scheduled digests. Both depend on source access and successful receipt.

You can keep Inoreader Free for RSS reading and use a separate summary workflow, but Free does not supply rules, monitoring or ordinary API access. Compare the extra setup, subscription cost and outputs on your own sources before combining services. Compare Readless plans and see how scheduled digests work.

Eligible new accounts can try Pro for 7 days with a payment card. Cancel before the trial ends to avoid a charge. Pro keeps source summaries separate. Optional Hot Topics groups a specific story covered by at least two distinct newsletter senders. Paid Max adds optional Synthesis with source references. Check important details in the originals.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q.01#

Is Inoreader free?

Yes. Free is an ongoing ad-supported plan with 150 RSS subscriptions and search within collected articles. Newsletter intake and web feeds are Pro features, alongside monitoring, rules, filters and Intelligence. Free RSS capacity does not include the separate 20-newsletter and 20-web-feed allowances shown for Pro.

Q.02#

What are Inoreader's free plan limits in 2026?

The Free RSS subscription limit is 150. Pro raises it to 2,500 RSS subscriptions and separately includes 20 newsletter feeds and 20 web feeds. Newsletter intake and web feeds are not Free allowances. Paid rules, monitoring, filters and AI are separate reasons to consider Pro even when your RSS list is below 150.

Q.03#

How much is Inoreader Pro per month?

Pro costs US$90 billed annually, equivalent to US$7.50/month, or US$9.99 billed monthly. Twelve monthly payments total US$119.88; that is a comparison total, not an annual offer. The annual saving over twelve monthly payments is US$29.88. Confirm taxes, currency and account-specific terms at checkout.

Q.04#

What does Inoreader Intelligence cost?

Pro includes 1 million Intelligence tokens per month for article AI. Extra tokens, reports and BYOAI have additional plan/add-on conditions. Team members receive Pro features, while shared Team pools and Team Intelligence capabilities depend on the selected team offer; do not multiply an old per-member quota to estimate a current allowance.

Q.05#

What is Inoreader BYOAI and when did it launch?

BYOAI lets you connect your own AI-provider API key and choose a model. The April 14, 2026 announcement distinguishes platform choice on Pro from own-key/model access, which requires an eligible Intelligence add-on or Team Intelligence. Provider usage charges are separate from the Inoreader subscription. Check current supported platforms and add-on terms.

Q.06#

Inoreader vs Feedly: which is cheaper?

For annual RSS reading plans, Feedly Pro is $72/year compared with Inoreader Pro at US$90/year. Feedly Pro is $72/year ($6/month equivalent). Pro+ advertises a $99 first-year offer ($8.25/month equivalent), alongside a $144/year regular price ($12/month equivalent). These are annual billing terms, not verified month-to-month offers. Inoreader also offers US$9.99 monthly billing. Base Pro article Intelligence, Feedly Pro+ AI features, newsletter intake and report add-ons are different products; compare the required features rather than naming one universal value winner.

Q.07#

Does Inoreader have a student or nonprofit discount?

The public pricing page does not advertise a standard student or nonprofit offer. Ask Inoreader about your situation before relying on a discount. Annual versus monthly billing can change your cost, but the annual refund window concerns a completed payment and is not an extension of the advertised free trial.

Q.08#

Can I get an Inoreader API key for free?

The developer portal describes an exception for developers building public apps for platforms where Inoreader is unavailable. Other uses require Pro. Contact sales for a quote or to confirm the terms for your use. Register an app and confirm your use, quota and commercial/custom conditions; an ordinary personal script is not automatically covered by that exception.

Q.09#

Is the Inoreader Supporter or lifetime plan still available?

The current public pricing page lists Free, Pro, Custom and Team offers rather than a new-customer Supporter or lifetime plan. Check your account or ask support about legacy renewal rights. Treat third-party coupons as unconfirmed until a valid offer appears at checkout.

Q.10#

How much do Inoreader Team plans cost?

Prices cover the listed team size: Team / Team Intelligence start at $44.99 / $64.99 advertised per month for 3 members. They are separate plans, not two billing modes or per-seat quotes. Every member receives Pro features, and Team resources include shared pools. Confirm the appropriate plan, usage allowance, add-ons and contract billing with Inoreader.
