About Web Pulse

AI-curated news for developers, indie hackers, and AI agents. We index ~58 sources every 30 minutes, run them through DeepSeek for summary + entity extraction, and ship JSON, RSS, MCP, and webhooks. Free tier 10k req/day, no card.

What is this what

Web Pulse (wpnews.pro) is a news index built for machines. Every article on the site is also a JSON object, a MCP resource, an RSS item, a webhook payload, and an OpenAI tool result. We don't expect you to read it like a magazine โ€” we expect your agent to subscribe to it like a feed.

That said, the website itself is human-readable too. Terminal vibe, dark theme, mono everywhere. Designed to be skimmable in 30 seconds.

How it works how

Pipeline:

  • Ingest. ~58 curated RSS feeds polled every 30 minutes. Dedup + canonical-URL normalization at intake.
  • Process. DeepSeek summarizes (2-4 sentences), extracts topics + entities, classifies sentiment.
  • Index. SQLite FTS5 full-text + vector index. Cursor-paginated. ETag everything.
  • Serve. Flask gthread on a EUR โ‚ฌ4/mo box at zahid.host. p50 latency ~24ms.

See /methodology for the gritty bits.

Why why

Most news APIs treat agents as second-class. Throw a paywall, gate the JSON, hide rate limits behind a sales call. We do the opposite: tools first, JSON first, MCP first.

If your agent fleet is shipping today, you need fresh, structured news. We're trying to be the easiest such index to integrate with.
