Choose the sources. Mute the words and topics you do not want. Read what remains. Muuted is built for people who want less noise without handing their attention to another algorithm.
Your sources stay yours. Your mute rules apply across the feed. Nothing is inserted because an algorithm thinks you should see it.
Most readers treat filtering as one feature among many. Muuted is built around it. Your sources stay yours, your mute rules apply across the feed, and nothing is inserted because an algorithm thinks you should see it.
A practical comparison of price, free plans, source control, keyword muting, junk filtering, ads, and algorithmic ranking.

Prices and limits checked August 2026 against each product's published pricing and support pages. Products change; if we have something wrong, we will correct it.
Yes. The free plan includes 10 muted words. Pro removes the mute limit.
No. Muuted does not use a recommendation algorithm to decide what should appear in your feed. Your sources and your rules determine what you see.
If whole-feed muting is the main job you need done, Muuted is designed around that use case: 10 muted words on the free plan, unlimited muting on Pro, and explicit user-controlled rules.
When you have read what remains, you are done.
Competitor prices and plan limits on this page were checked as of September 2026 and come from each provider's own public pricing page. Other companies change their pricing whenever they like — check theirs before you decide.
