What is Feedly?

Feedly has become a threat-intel platform where AI agents, not feeds, do the reading.

Feedly now ships on a two-week cadence almost entirely against its Threat Intelligence product. The surface is a family of AI agents — Custom Intel Agents, Cyberattack Agent, Vulnerability Agent, plus tuned models for insider threats and threat-actor campaigns — wrapped in Insight Cards that carry CVE, IoC and detection-rule context. Report Builder and newsletters are the output layer; the RSS reader heritage barely appears in the changelog anymore.

What is Fulcrum?

Fulcrum turns on Insights, its AI assistant for field data, for every customer.

Fulcrum, a field data collection platform, opened Insights to all customers on all plans as a public beta, on by default. Users ask questions in plain language across up to five apps and get charts, maps and tables, with an org-level off switch. Around it, web, iOS and Android releases fixed map, GPS and photo markup issues and tuned Photo FastFill and Insights styling.

Feedly vs Fulcrum: editorial side-by-side

5.0

Feedly has become a threat-intel platform where AI agents, not feeds, do the reading.

◆ Current state

Feedly now ships on a two-week cadence almost entirely against its Threat Intelligence product. The surface is a family of AI agents — Custom Intel Agents, Cyberattack Agent, Vulnerability Agent, plus tuned models for insider threats and threat-actor campaigns — wrapped in Insight Cards that carry CVE, IoC and detection-rule context. Report Builder and newsletters are the output layer; the RSS reader heritage barely appears in the changelog anymore.

◆ Where it's heading

Two threads run through every release. First, agents are being fleshed out into complete workflow objects: they gained Ask AI Analyze and Research actions, then table controls, then alerting. Second, Feedly is closing the trust gap that AI-generated intel opens — MITRE ATT&CK tagging accuracy, exploit confidence and evidence on CVE cards, and Report Builder citations that resolve to the source passage. The integrations (Censys, GreyNoise, VirusTotal, Analyst1, SPL alongside KQL) point at fitting into SOC tooling rather than replacing it.

◆ Prediction

Expect the alerting added to Custom Intel Agents to spread to the other agents, and continued query-language and enrichment coverage aimed at existing SIEM workflows. Whether the Ask AI Research Playground becomes a real self-serve entry point or stays an evaluation demo is not readable from these entries.

6.3

Fulcrum turns on Insights, its AI assistant for field data, for every customer.

◆ Current state

Fulcrum, a field data collection platform, opened Insights to all customers on all plans as a public beta, on by default. Users ask questions in plain language across up to five apps and get charts, maps and tables, with an org-level off switch. Around it, web, iOS and Android releases fixed map, GPS and photo markup issues and tuned Photo FastFill and Insights styling.

◆ Where it's heading

Fulcrum is adding AI at both ends of its workflow: FastFill extracts data from photos and audio at capture, and Insights answers questions about the data afterwards. Mobile releases stay focused on reliability for GPS and map features still in beta.

◆ Prediction

Expect Insights to move toward general availability or paid packaging once the beta collects usage, and GPS Integration to leave beta after the current fix cycle.
