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 OpenHouse?
OpenHouse locks down its column-defaults capability flag as default values near completion.
OpenHouse shipped eleven builds (v0.5.529 to v0.5.539) in a week. The substantive work is a pluggable pre-commit check framework inside doCommit, built so column-default rules run on every commit path, and the first wiring of OpenHouseCatalog to the Views service. v0.5.539 makes the required-capability.column-defaults property immutable, and earlier builds added a tableExists endpoint, opt-in Spark SQL ALTER TABLE ... UNLOCK, and validation that blocks RTAS combined with WAP or replication.
Feedly vs OpenHouse: editorial side-by-side
Feedly
5.0ANALYTICS
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.
OpenHouse
5.0ANALYTICS
OpenHouse locks down its column-defaults capability flag as default values near completion.
◆ Current state
OpenHouse shipped eleven builds (v0.5.529 to v0.5.539) in a week. The substantive work is a pluggable pre-commit check framework inside doCommit, built so column-default rules run on every commit path, and the first wiring of OpenHouseCatalog to the Views service. v0.5.539 makes the required-capability.column-defaults property immutable, and earlier builds added a tableExists endpoint, opt-in Spark SQL ALTER TABLE ... UNLOCK, and validation that blocks RTAS combined with WAP or replication.
◆ Where it's heading
LinkedIn's table catalog is moving business rules into the commit itself, so defaults, property rules and commit policies all reject the same way with clear 400s. Views and column default values are being built in parallel, and both are now past plumbing into user-facing guards. The team favors small, reversible steps.
◆ Prediction
Expect column default values and the Views client API to become usable end to end within the next few builds, with more PreCommitCheck rules registered by the tables service.
