RSS Bridge,
for websites without feeds.

Some websites do not provide native RSS feeds. RSS Bridge can generate a feed for supported websites, then The Feed Reader Bot can monitor it for you.

How to use RSS Bridge with The Feed Reader Bot.

Generate a feed with ChatGPT

If a website is not supported by an existing bridge, Generic Feed Generator can ask ChatGPT to create one.


  1. Open Generic Feed Generator.
  2. Enter the page URL you want to monitor and your OpenAI API key. You can create an API key from the OpenAI API keys page.
  3. Click Generate feed. ChatGPT is called to create the feed configuration.

    Important: your OpenAI API key is used only once, when the configuration is generated. It is not included in the generated feed, so you will not be charged by OpenAI each time The Feed Reader Bot checks the feed.

  4. When generation succeeds, use the preview link to check the extracted items.
  5. If the preview looks correct, click Copy command on the preview page, then paste the command into The Feed Reader Bot.

Still cannot generate a feed?

If you cannot generate a working feed, use /request_feed in The Feed Reader Bot and include the website URL. The URL will be reviewed to see if a feed can be generated, but there is no guaranteed response time.
