Every European AI news briefing tool reviewed
Sofia, Bulgaria
Free (150 feeds) / Pro €6.67 per month billed yearly or €8.99 monthly (up to 2,500 feeds) / Custom plan priced on add-ons
Free plan
Best for: RSS, newsletters and AI summaries in one reader
Inoreader started as an RSS aggregator and has grown into a content reader that takes in feeds, newsletters, social feeds and Google News alerts. The Pro plan adds Inoreader Intelligence, which creates article summaries from a prompt or a question, identifies entities such as companies and public figures, suggests tags and produces transcripts with topic summaries for podcasts and videos. It also offers email digests, rules, filters and API access.
The privacy policy names Innologica Ltd as the data controller and gives its postal address as 35 Boris Stefanov str., 1700 Sofia, Bulgaria. The terms describe the same company as the owner of the service. The pricing page shows a free plan with 150 feeds, Pro at €6.67 a month billed yearly or €8.99 monthly with up to 2,500 feeds, and a Custom plan priced on add-ons.
It is a reader first and a briefing tool second, so it rewards people who already manage feeds. The company number and the AI provider behind the summaries were not stated on the pages read.
What Inoreader does well
- Reads RSS, newsletters, social feeds and news alerts together
- AI summaries by prompt or question, plus transcripts
- Free plan and visible euro prices
- Email digests, rules and filters
- Company and Sofia address named in the privacy policy
Where Inoreader falls short
- AI features sit on the paid Pro plan
- More reader than ready-made briefing
- Company registration number not read
- AI provider and storage country not stated on the pages read
Standout feature. It puts feeds, newsletters, AI summaries and email digests in one reader with a free plan.
Stockholm, Sweden
Free (200 feeds, 2 AI summaries a day) / Plus (2,500 feeds, email summaries) / Professional (10,000 feeds, 60 AI summaries a day, team tools) / Enterprise on request; amounts are shown in USD on the pricing page
Free plan
Best for: A simple RSS reader with AI summaries on every plan
Feeder is an RSS reader with an AI summary function on every plan: the free plan allows 2 AI summaries a day, and Professional allows 60 a day, with 200 a day on Enterprise. The Plus plan adds email summaries and rule-based filtering, and Professional adds team collaboration, integrations with Slack, Discord and Zapier, and publishing of your own feeds.
The terms of service name Really Simple i Stockholm AB as the operator of feeder.co and refer to the laws of Stockholm, Sweden. The terms do not give an address or an organisation number. The pricing page shows a free plan with 200 feeds, and paid plans with amounts in USD.
It is a good fit for people who want a clean reader and the occasional summary rather than a full digest. The free summary allowance is small, and the daily digest features of the larger readers are not the point of the product.
What Feeder does well
- AI summaries on every plan
- Free plan with 200 feeds
- Email summaries on Plus
- Team tools and integrations on Professional
- Swedish company named in the terms
Where Feeder falls short
- Only 2 AI summaries a day on the free plan
- Address and organisation number not in the terms
- Plan prices are in USD
- Less focused on a ready-made daily digest
Standout feature. It gives every plan, including the free one, AI summaries of articles.
Munich, Germany
Free (one inbox address, 5 premium summaries a day) / Plus $60 per year or $7 per month / Lifetime $99 one-time
Free tier; 7-day trial for Plus
Best for: Folding newsletters into one daily digest
Remy is a newsletter summariser. You give each newsletter subscription a Remy email address, and the AI extracts the key points and sends one daily or weekly digest to your own inbox. You can set up several Remy addresses to group newsletters by topic, and forward newsletters from an existing inbox.
The imprint names nebty GmbH at c/o BASE Coworking, Blütenstr. 15, 80799 Munich, registered as HRB 293827 at the Munich commercial register, with VAT DE368739909. The pricing page shows a free tier with one inbox address and 5 premium summaries a day, with a smaller model for the rest, Plus at $60 a year or $7 a month with a 7-day trial, and a $99 lifetime plan.
Remy does one thing, and it does not read RSS feeds or news sites. The address is a co-working space, and the pages read do not say which AI model does the summarising.
What Remy does well
- Full register entry in the imprint
- Free tier with daily and weekly digests
- Several inbox addresses to group topics
- Visible prices, including a lifetime plan
- Privacy-first design with account deletion in the dashboard
Where Remy falls short
- Newsletters only, no RSS or news sites
- Premium summaries are capped on the free tier
- Prices are in dollars
- AI model behind the summaries not named on the pages read
Standout feature. It turns a pile of newsletters into a single digest with a free tier.
Paris, France
Abstrakt News free / Press review from €150 per month (mention tracking), €300 per month (weekly) and €1,000 per month (daily); media impact analysis from €500 and perception reports from €800
Free daily newsletter
Best for: A free daily digest with human validation
Abstrakt sells press reviews built by AI and validated by people. Abstrakt News is the free consumer product: a daily digest sent Monday to Saturday, with concise summaries by category and several source citations for each story. Abstrakt Pro is the paid product, in which a questionnaire sets the topics and the AI selects, summarises and sorts articles before an editor checks them.
The legal notice names Abstrakt Lab at 1 rue de Stockholm, 75008 Paris, SIREN 942 151 564, VAT FR28942151564, with share capital of €500. The French company register lists the same company with Julien Hébrard and Marvin Amuzu as officers. Press reviews cost from €150 a month for mention tracking, €300 for weekly reviews and €1,000 for daily reviews, and email, dashboard and mobile app delivery are included.
The site is in French with an English section, and the free digest covers French press. Paid reviews are priced for organisations rather than individuals, and copyright fees in France are billed separately.
What Abstrakt does well
- Free daily digest with sources cited
- AI plus human validation
- Register entry confirms the company
- Prices published for press reviews
- Email, dashboard and mobile app delivery
Where Abstrakt falls short
- Free digest is built on French press
- Paid reviews start at €150 a month
- French copyright fees billed separately
- Founded in 2025 according to the register, so a young company
Standout feature. It combines an AI that reads the press with editors who validate it, and gives the daily digest away free.
Helsinki, Finland
Premium tier exists; amounts not read
Best for: An AI news app that writes in your language
Freepress is an AI news app. Its navigation shows a Daily Brief, a Most Covered view, Latest, Topics and a Premium tier. Funding coverage describes an AI editor that reads articles from many countries and writes the key points in the user's own language, with notifications when international media cover a topic you follow, and a plan to share up to half of its revenue with publishers.
The Finnish Trade Register lists Freepress.ai Oy, business ID 3364691-6, as a limited company with the website www.freepress.ai, and press coverage places it in Helsinki. It launched in Finland in autumn 2025 and raised €1 million in December 2025. The terms and privacy pages could not be read, so the company is verified through the register.
No prices were shown on the pages read. It is a young product, and which parts are free and which sit behind Premium was not confirmed.
What Freepress does well
- Daily Brief and topic tracking
- Writes stories in your own language
- Finnish register entry confirms the company
- Apps for iOS and Android
- Revenue-sharing model with publishers
Where Freepress falls short
- Premium amounts not read
- Terms and privacy pages not read
- Very young product
- Source list not read
Standout feature. It is the one app here that rewrites global news in the reader's own language.
Hamburg, Germany
Free download; no prices shown
Free app
Best for: A light AI news app in German
newsbrd is a German news app that summarises articles with AI. It describes a personalised feed in which machine learning picks up the topics you read, a focus on informative headlines without clickbait or paywalls, and apps for iOS and Android that are free to download. Its FAQ says it is a supplement to traditional news, not a replacement.
The imprint, which is shown as an image, names Markus Zopf, c/o IP-Management #13945, Ludwig-Erhard-Strasse 18, 20459 Hamburg. That is a natural person with a mail-forwarding address, not a company with a register entry. The privacy policy names Google LLC as the hosting provider for the website.
No prices and no source list were shown on the pages read. It suits a user who wants a quick German-language update, and it is the least transparent entry here about who is behind it.
What newsbrd does well
- AI summaries for a quick update
- Personalised feed
- Free apps for iOS and Android
- German imprint with a named person
- No clickbait or paywalls, per the site
Where newsbrd falls short
- Run by a private person, not a registered company
- Website hosted by Google LLC
- No source list or prices on the pages read
- Not a replacement for traditional news, per its own FAQ
Standout feature. It is the lightest AI summary app in the list, free on both iOS and Android.
Egg, Switzerland
Not shown on the page read
Best for: A daily digest of the best articles on your topics
Refind describes itself as "Brain food, delivered daily". You choose topics, and it analyses thousands of articles and sends you a short list of the best ones each day. The site states more than 500,000 readers. It is a recommendation digest rather than a summary, and the page read does not say whether AI writes any of it.
The terms name Refind Inc., Schlapprig 3, 8847 Egg SZ, Switzerland, with company ID CHE-322.432.450. Switzerland is in Europe but outside the EU and the EEA, which matters if you need a vendor under EU law.
No pricing was shown on the page read. It links out to the original articles, so it suits readers who want curation and are happy to open the source.
What Refind does well
- Daily curated list on topics you choose
- Company ID in the terms
- Links to original sources
- Large reader base, per its own claim
- Simple sign-up flow
Where Refind falls short
- Not an AI summary tool on the evidence read
- Swiss company, outside the EU and the EEA
- No pricing on the page read
- Reader count is a vendor claim
Standout feature. It sends a daily list of recommended articles instead of trying to replace them with summaries.
Zagreb, Croatia
Plan prices not shown on the page read
Free 5-day trial
Best for: PR teams that need AI summaries of their own coverage
Determ, formerly Mediatoolkit, is a media monitoring platform for PR and communications teams. It monitors online media and social conversations, raises real-time alerts, writes AI summaries of coverage and builds automated reports that export to Excel, PDF and PowerPoint, with sentiment analysis in several languages. It is a briefing tool for a brand, not for a reader.
The terms of service say "We are Determ d.o.o., a company registered in the Republic of Croatia, Zagreb", with the address Filip Vukasović 1 and register number (MB) 04514238. The site offers a free 5-day trial with a business email, and the plan prices were not shown on the pages read.
It is priced and designed for organisations, so it is the wrong choice for a personal morning digest. The pages read do not name the AI provider.
What Determ does well
- AI summaries and real-time alerts
- Automated reports with several export formats
- Register number in the terms
- Free 5-day trial
- Multi-language sentiment analysis
Where Determ falls short
- Built for companies, not individual readers
- Plan prices not shown on the page read
- Trial requires a business email
- AI provider not named on the pages read
Standout feature. It turns media coverage of a brand into AI summaries, alerts and automated reports.
London, United Kingdom
Enterprise sales, no prices published
Best for: Enterprise teams that need news intelligence
Signal AI is a media intelligence company. Its about page says it was founded more than 13 years ago, combines discriminative and generative AI to deliver insight, and serves 800+ customers from four global offices. It is aimed at organisations that make decisions on the strength of news and information, not at individual readers.
The legal page and footer name Signal Media Ltd, with a registered address at Floor 4, The Script, 44 Featherstone Street, London EC1Y 8RN, United Kingdom. The contact page also lists offices in New York, Lisbon and Hong Kong, so check which entity signs your contract. The United Kingdom is in Europe but outside the EU.
No prices are published, and the company number was not read. It is a sales-led enterprise product, so a small team will meet a demo request before a price.
What Signal AI does well
- Established vendor with 800+ customers, per its own page
- Generative and non-generative AI combined
- Registered London address on the legal page
- Offices in Europe, the US and Asia
- Built for decision support, not just reading
Where Signal AI falls short

- UK company, outside the EU
- Offices in several countries, so check the contracting entity
- Overkill for personal reading
Standout feature. It is the enterprise-scale option, with 800+ customers and a London-registered company.
Berlin, Germany
Free app
Free app
Best for: A free personalised news app with editor-written summaries
upday is a news app built by Axel Springer and offered to Samsung users, with a personalised "my news" area and short summaries of important articles. Press coverage describes editors across Europe selecting stories from thousands of sources and summarising them, with an algorithm adding stories to match your interests. That makes it an aggregator with editorial summaries more than an AI-written briefing.
The privacy policy names upday GmbH & Co. KG, Axel-Springer-Str. 65, Berlin, Germany, as the data controller. The app is free. The product description here comes from press coverage, not from a vendor page, and the AI content of the summaries was not confirmed.
It suits someone who wants a local news overview with a European publisher behind it. It does not give you control over your own feeds or sources.
What upday does well
- Backed by a large European publisher
- Free app
- Personalised feed
- Summaries written by editors, per press coverage
- Company named in the privacy policy
Where upday falls short
- Not an AI-written briefing on the evidence read
- No control over your own sources
- Product description relies on press coverage
- Register number not read
Standout feature. It pairs editor-written summaries with a personalised feed from a large European publisher.
London, United Kingdom
Free with ads / Premium subscription (ad-free, faster refresh), price confirmed at order
Best for: Headlines by topic from many publishers
NewsNow is a news aggregator that has linked to headlines by topic since 1997. The Premium subscription removes third-party display advertising and gives faster content refresh. The subscription terms mention no AI summaries and no email briefings, so it is a place to scan headlines, not a briefing writer.
The contact page names NewsNow Publishing Limited, The Stanley Building, 7 Pancras Square, London N1C 4AG, a company registered in England and Wales number 3435857, with VAT 731495236. The United Kingdom is in Europe but outside the EU. The Premium price is confirmed at order and varies by period and territory.
It is included because it is an established European way to scan the news, and the entry says clearly that it does not use AI summaries on the pages read.
What NewsNow does well
- Long-running aggregator since 1997
- Company number and VAT in the contact details
- Free with ads
- Ad-free Premium option
- Broad range of publishers
Where NewsNow falls short
- No AI summaries or email briefings in the terms
- UK company, outside the EU
- Premium price shown only at order
- Headlines only, you still read the articles
Standout feature. It is the established aggregator in the list, with a company number and no AI claims.
Stockholm, Sweden
Research preview for selected users aged 18 and over; no price published
Best for: A podcast-style briefing, if you can get in
Spotify Studio is a desktop app from Spotify Labs that press coverage describes as an AI agent building personal podcasts and daily briefings from connected emails, calendars and notes, with the ability to browse the web for current news. It is in research preview, rolling out in more than 20 markets to selected users aged 18 and over, and what you create stays private.
The contact page states that Spotify AB serves Spotify users in all markets except the United States, with headquarters at Regeringsgatan 19, 111 53 Stockholm, Sweden, registration number 556703-7485. The Studio details come from press coverage, and no Spotify page describing the app was read.
No price is published and access is by invitation, so it cannot be relied on as a daily tool yet. It is listed because it is the one podcast-style briefing option from a European company.
What Spotify Studio does well
- Podcast-style briefing, not just text
- Can use your own emails, calendar and notes
- Registration number on the contact page
- Large European company behind it
- Private output, per coverage
Where Spotify Studio falls short
- Research preview for selected users only
- No published price
- Product details rely on press coverage
- Spotify USA, Inc. serves US users, so check the entity in your market
Standout feature. It is the one tool here that turns your own data and the news into a spoken briefing.
