No trending topics. No noise. WHY PAPERWEIGHT? Most RSS readers show everything in chronological order. PaperWeight scores every article against your personal taste profile — author affinity, topic overlap, reading depth — so the best posts always come first, no matter when they were published. 🔒 PRIVACY FIRST — NO SERVERS, NO ACCOUNT Everything — your taste profile, followed sources, reading history — stays in your browser using Chrome's local storage. No sign-up. No tracking. No analytics. Nothing leaves your device. The only outbound requests are: • RSS feeds you follow (fetched directly from the source) • Your AI provider of choice (optional — only article title and snippet, no personal data) • Your own Google Apps Script for email digest (optional — no PaperWeight servers involved) Full privacy policy: https://paperweight-eight.vercel.app/privacy 🏷️ OPTIONAL: AI TAGGING Add an Anthropic, OpenAI, or Google AI API key in Settings. Without a key, PaperWeight tags articles by keyword. With one, a language model reads each title and snippet to generate precise topic tags — your taste profile sharpens faster. Only title and snippet are sent. No personal data included. 📧 OPTIONAL: EMAIL DIGEST Deploy a free Google Apps Script to your own Google account (one-time setup, takes minutes). PaperWeight builds your digest locally and sends it from your own Gmail — to your own inbox. No PaperWeight servers see your email or your data. Includes top ranked articles, Gmail newsletters grouped by sender, and an AI-written summary if you have an API key.
