Scottie alternatives
My Rundown or Scottie?
Uncertain: The official My Rundown domain could not be verified as available; independent launch and founder material documents the product, so confirm current service before relying on it.[1][2]
Short answer: My Rundown is worth considering only after confirming current access, especially if you want to curate a backlog by saving individual articles. Scottie is for recurring sources that should become a brief without manual saving.[1][2]
Choose My Rundown if…
Choose Scottie if…
- Scottie starts with recurring publications and reader priorities instead of waiting for each article to be saved.
- Scottie shows both included and left-out items, so the concise edition never hides what it read.
What My Rundown does best
My Rundown was presented as a read-later workflow that accepts articles through the web, a browser extension, and email, then sends a daily summary. Podcast transcription, audio, and fallback topic news broadened the resulting edition.[1][2]
What changes day to day
| What you need | My Rundown | Scottie |
|---|---|---|
| Primary job | My Rundown was presented as a read-later workflow that accepts articles through the web, a browser extension, and email, then sends a daily summary.[1][2] | Scottie starts with recurring publications and reader priorities instead of waiting for each article to be saved. |
| Reader effort | My Rundown depends on a reader-curated queue, even when the resulting digest is automated.[1][2] | Scottie reads the sources you choose, applies your stated priorities, and delivers one ranked brief. |
| Repeated coverage | Podcast transcription, optional audio, and fallback topic news make the morning edition flexible.[1][2] | Scottie groups the new material across followed sources before the reader makes a save-or-skip decision. |
| Original links | Independent launch material describes the capture and daily-summary workflow but does not prove current availability.[1][2] | Every original link stays attached, and you can open the full list of items Scottie read. |
| Pricing checked | The official My Rundown domain did not resolve during link validation on July 29, 2026. A current price is not asserted; confirm product availability before planning a purchase.[1][2] | Scottie starts with a 14-day free trial, then costs $15/month at the founding rate. |
How to try Scottie without losing your setup
- Verify that My Rundown is reachable and export the URLs you deliberately saved; do not lose a curated queue to an uncertain service.
- Separate one-off saved articles from publications you follow repeatedly, then add only the recurring sources to Scottie.
- Keep a read-later tool for intentional saves and judge Scottie on whether it removes the need to capture routine coverage manually.
Who should choose which
- Use My Rundown only if current access is confirmed and article-by-article capture is the habit you want.
- Use Scottie for recurring sources whose new issues should be reviewed automatically against clear reader priorities.
Questions
Questions you might have
Is My Rundown still available?
This guide could not verify the official domain. Check current access directly before moving a backlog or paying for a plan.[1][2]
Is Scottie a read-later app?
No. Scottie processes recurring sources into a brief; it does not claim to replace a deliberate archive of saved articles.
