Scoop.it is a content curation platform. It monitors sources for your topics, lets you pick and comment on articles, and publishes them as topic pages, newsletters, social posts or website embeds. It is still running. The Scoop.it pricing page lists a free plan, Pro at $14.99 a month on yearly billing and Plus at $119, and the homepage says the service is hosted in France and has been used by 8M people over 15 years.
Two tools often named as replacements are no longer options. Mozilla shut down Pocket on July 8, 2025, and export closed on November 12, 2025, when user data deletion began. Curata is no longer sold: curata.com is now founder Pawan Deshpande's page, which describes the company in the past tense and offers no sign-up.
The picks below cover the three things Scoop.it does: finding content, organizing it, and publishing it to an audience. Few tools do all three, so the notes say which part each one replaces.
Prices below are as of November 6, 2026. Our method is on How we review tools.

Feedly
Feedly replaces the finding part of Scoop.it better than anything else here. You follow sites, newsletters and searches, and the Pro+ plan adds Feedly AI feeds that rate articles, reports and social posts by how relevant they are to your topics. Its RSS Builder creates feeds for sites that do not publish one.
The free plan covers basic reading. On the App Store, Feedly Pro is $7.99 a month and Pro+ $15.99 a month. Enterprise plans add market, threat, competitive and biopharma intelligence for teams.
Best for: Researchers and marketers who need to watch many sources and only read what matters.
Pricing:
- Free plan for basic reading.
- Pro: $7.99/month. Pro+ with AI feeds: $15.99/month (App Store prices).
- Enterprise: contact sales. The Lifetime plan is no longer sold.
Watch out for:
- Feedly is built for reading and research, with no public topic pages, so publishing what you pick needs another tool.
Official site: Feedly.
UpContent
For businesses that used Scoop.it to feed social accounts and newsletters, UpContent does the same loop. You set topics, approve articles, and send them to collections that publish to social platforms, RSS feeds, email newsletters or website pages. Paid plans add AI caption text, custom calls to action and content policy rules that block sources you do not want.
The UpContent pricing page has a free plan with one topic, then Sharer at $15 a month and Curator at $49 with three-month minimums, rising to Orchestrator at $265.
Best for: Marketing and employee advocacy teams that publish curated content every week.
Pricing:
- Free Forever: 1 topic, 1 user.
- Sharer: $15/month (3-month minimum) or $162/year. Curator: $49/month or $529/year.
- Engager: $95/month (6-month minimum). Orchestrator: $265/month. Enterprise: custom, 1-year minimum.
Watch out for:
- Minimum terms apply on every paid plan, from three months on Sharer up to a year on Enterprise, and extra collections cost $10 to $30 a month each.
Official site: UpContent.
Inoreader
Inoreader is a feed reader with a generous free plan: 150 RSS feeds, article search and Google News alerts. Pro raises that to 2,500 feeds and adds monitoring feeds for keywords, web feeds for sites without RSS and newsletter feeds that pull email newsletters into the reader.
The publishing side is plain but useful. Pro output feeds turn a folder or tag into a custom RSS feed or an HTML clip you can embed on a site, which covers a basic Scoop.it topic page. The Inoreader pricing page lists Pro at $7.50 a month billed yearly.
Best for: Individuals who read a lot and want to share a filtered stream on their own site.
Pricing:
- Free: 150 feeds, no card.
- Pro: $7.50/month billed yearly or $9.99 monthly, 2,500 feeds.
- Custom: quote for teams and API access.
Watch out for:
- Output feeds and HTML clips have no design or commentary layout, so they look like a raw list next to a Scoop.it page.
Official site: Inoreader.
ContentStudio
ContentStudio is a social media scheduler with a feed reader built in, so you can pick an article and queue it to your accounts in the same screen. That suits Scoop.it users whose main output was social posts rather than topic pages.
The ContentStudio pricing page starts Standard at $19 a month on yearly billing for 5 social accounts. Feed search, OPML import and topic feeds start on Advanced at $49 a month, with a 7-day trial and no card.
Best for: Social media managers who curate articles mainly to post them.
Pricing:
- Standard: $19/month yearly ($29 monthly), 5 accounts, 1 user. No RSS discovery.
- Advanced: $49/month yearly ($69 monthly), 10 accounts, feeds included.
- Agency Unlimited: $99/month yearly ($139 monthly).
Watch out for:
- The cheapest plan leaves out the feed features, so curation really starts at $49 a month.
Official site: ContentStudio.
Raindrop.io
Raindrop.io organizes, it does not discover. Save links from any browser or phone into collections, tag and highlight them, and share a collection or invite others to add to it. The free plan has no cap on bookmarks, collections or devices, and sharing is included.
Pro adds full-text search (including YouTube transcripts), permanent archive copies of saved pages, a broken link checker and daily backups. On the App Store, Raindrop.io Pro costs $2.99 a month or $27.99 a year.
Best for: People who curated with Scoop.it or Pocket mainly to keep and share good links.
Pricing:
- Free: unlimited bookmarks and collections, 100 MB uploads a month.
- Pro: $2.99/month or $27.99/year (App Store), 10 GB uploads.
Watch out for:
- There is no source monitoring, newsletter or social publishing, so you still need a reader to find content.
Official site: Raindrop.io.
Wakelet
Scoop.it lists education among its main audiences, and Wakelet is built for schools first. A collection can hold links, files, videos, images, PDFs and notes, and students or colleagues can add to it. You share it with one link or show it on a public profile.
The Wakelet homepage offers a free plan, with paid tiers for individuals, groups, schools and organizations that add space and features. It connects with Google and YouTube.
Best for: Teachers and students who build reading lists and resource pages together.
Pricing:
- Free plan for starting collections.
- Paid plans for individuals, groups and schools. Prices not published.
Watch out for:
- Every item is added by hand, with no topic monitoring, so it replaces Scoop.it's pages but not its discovery.
Official site: Wakelet.

When to stay with Scoop.it

Its Plus plan adds newsletters and five publication pages, and Enterprise brings SSO, white label and private curation. Hosting in France may also help European teams with GDPR reviews.
Frequently asked questions
Is Scoop.it still free?
Yes, there is still a free plan with unlimited posts on one publication page. Those pages are visible only on Scoop.it, though. Indexing by search engines and posting to social networks start on Pro.
What replaced Pocket?
Mozilla pointed users to Firefox tab groups and better bookmarks. For a separate app, Raindrop.io is the closest match: it saves articles from any browser, and its free plan has no bookmark limit. Old Pocket data cannot be recovered now, since export ended in November 2025.
What is the difference between content curation and content aggregation?
Aggregation pulls everything from your sources into one place. Curation means choosing a few pieces and adding your own view before you share them. Feedly and Inoreader aggregate. Scoop.it and UpContent help you curate and publish the result.
