Your news site, on autopilot.
Point AutoNews at any RSS feed in your topic area. It researches every story, writes a polished article from multiple sources, picks a featured image, and publishes — reviewed or fully automatic, your call.

An RSS feed isn't a news site. A news site needs articles.
News-driven sites win on freshness. But hiring writers to turn every headline into a 500-word piece is expensive, slow, and brittle. Aggregator widgets — the easy alternative — produce thin pages search engines and readers ignore.
The two bad options most operators settle for
- Pay $50–$200 per article and ship 5 stories a week, badly
- Or run an aggregator widget with one-sentence excerpts that don't rank
- Either way, your site looks neglected to repeat visitors
- And to Google, you're either too small or too thin to feature
What AutoNews does instead
- ›Pulls headlines from feeds you choose
- ›Researches each story across multiple sources
- ›Writes a full original article per story
- ›Picks a featured image automatically
- ›Publishes when you say so — reviewed or instant
Result: a real news site, with real articles, updated as often as your feeds.
Set the topic. Let AutoNews do the desk work.
Add your feeds
Paste any RSS URLs into the admin — trade publications, competitors, wire services, your own niche sources. Enable, disable, or rename anytime.
AutoNews researches
For each new headline, it pulls outside coverage from across the open web so the resulting article isn't a regurgitation of a single source.
AI drafts the article
2Much Colossus AI writes a polished 300–800 word piece with title, meta description, FAQ, and JSON-LD schema. Featured image picked automatically.
You verify and publish
Check the sources, factual claims, attribution, image rights, and usefulness in the review queue. Revise or reject the draft, then approve it when it meets your standards.
A full news platform out of the box.
Not just a draft generator. AutoNews is your CMS, your feed reader, and your editor.
Multi-Feed Ingest
Pull from as many RSS sources as you want. Enable, disable, or rename feeds from the admin. The pipeline iterates oldest-pulled-first so every feed gets fair attention.
AI Article Synthesis
Full 300–800 word articles drawn from multiple outside sources per story — not paraphrased from the headline alone. Title, meta, body, FAQ, and JSON-LD generated together.
Editorial Review Queue
Side-by-side view of the original RSS post and the researched draft. Verify sources and claims, then approve, reject, or edit before anything goes live.
Automatic Featured Images
AutoNews harvests images from source pages, resizes to a standard hero size, converts to WebP, and picks the best one as featured. Fallback to a branded placeholder when nothing usable is available.
Topic-Cluster Hub Pages
People, organisations, and places mentioned across your articles automatically get topic hub pages and dedicated RSS feeds — the SEO topic-cluster pattern, built in, no manual tagging.
Hourly Auto-Pull
A cron runs every hour: pull new headlines, research, synthesise, publish. Kill-switch toggle in the admin pauses it without removing the cron. Manual “Run now” button fires the pipeline on demand with live progress.
Pin & Hide
Pin any story to the top of your site in any order you choose. Hide articles from the public site without deleting them — they sit in the Hidden area, restorable anytime.
RSS Feeds Out
AutoNews publishes its own site-wide RSS feed plus a dedicated feed per topic hub. Readers in feed apps, partners syndicating your headlines, or your own social automation all subscribe through standard RSS 2.0.
Multi-Provider AI
Switch between 2Much Colossus, Google Gemini, OpenAI, or a self-hosted Ollama instance per site. Bring your own AI keys or run Ollama locally.
Industry-Specific Publishing
Colossus AI prepares drafts using the terminology and source material relevant to your publication. Editors verify accuracy, rights and suitability before publishing.
White-Label Branding
Your site name, your domain, your logo, your colours. No AutoNews or 2MUCH.NET branding visible to readers anywhere. Configurable from the admin in two clicks.
Pageview Counter
A built-in lightweight pageview counter on every article. No external analytics required for the basic “is this site getting traffic” question; pairs cleanly with GA4 or Plausible if you want more.
Now it builds an audience — and revenue.
AutoNews isn't just publishing anymore. The latest release turns your site into a community with a built-in income stream: reader accounts, real moderated comments, editorial press-release intake, and a banner ad manager with a ready-made media kit.
Reader Accounts
Free reader sign-up with SendGrid email confirmation and password reset. Members get a profile with their website and social links. Account emails are CAN-SPAM compliant and sent under your brand — no “AutoNews” in the inbox.
Moderated Comments
Signed-in readers leave real comments — and every one waits for your approval before it appears. Built-in anti-spam: honeypots, rate-limits, and link caps, plus one-click block-and-purge for bad actors. A visible “no spam” reminder sets expectations up front.
Authentic Discussion
Only real, registered readers contribute public comments and reactions. Human moderation and anti-spam controls protect the discussion without presenting generated activity as genuine engagement.
Press-Release Intake
A public submission form lets brands send you press releases — headline, body, and image (auto-converted to WebP and resized like everything else). Each lands in your review queue and, once approved, reads exactly like any other article on your site.
Editorial Link Review
Editors decide whether a submitted link is useful to readers and whether it needs sponsored, nofollow, or user-generated attribution. Coverage and placement are based on editorial merit, never a required reciprocal link.
Built-in Ad Manager & Media Kit
House banner zones across the homepage, articles, and a sticky sidebar — plus an embeddable headlines widget that carries your ads onto partner sites. Drop in a static creative or any ad-network tag (TrafficJunky, ExoClick, JuicyAds). Weighting, scheduling, and impression/click tracking included, with a public rate-card page ready to sell from.

What publishers usually ask.
What is AutoNews?
An AI-assisted publishing platform. Point it at selected RSS feeds and it researches each story, prepares a full-length draft, and suggests a featured image for editorial review. Built-in CMS, RSS output, topic hubs, and white-label branding are included.
How is this different from an RSS aggregator?
An aggregator republishes the headline and one sentence. AutoNews produces a fact-grounded 300–800 word article per story, with SEO meta, JSON-LD schema, automatic featured image, and topic links. Real editorial content, not a headline widget.
Will the articles be unique?
Every article is freshly synthesised from multiple researched sources, with its own title, meta description, body, and schema. AutoNews does not republish content verbatim. The editor review queue catches anything that needs intervention.
Does AutoNews support adult / NSFW content?
Yes. AutoNews supports mainstream and adult-industry publications through its specialist model, 2Much Colossus NSFW. It prepares editorial drafts for review. Publishers remain responsible for accuracy, content rights and compliance with applicable laws and service policies.
How automated is “automated”?
Research, drafting, metadata, and image preparation are automated. A human editor verifies sources, claims, attribution, rights, and usefulness before approving publication.
What AI does AutoNews use?
AutoNews supports Google Gemini, OpenAI, and self-hosted Ollama — bring your own API keys or run Ollama locally, and choose your provider per site.
How many feeds can I run?
As many as you want. AutoNews's feed manager handles arbitrary counts. The hourly cron iterates oldest-first so all feeds get fair attention. Typical sites run 3–15 feeds.
How much does AutoNews cost?
AutoNews costs $299 per year. The price includes the software plus free support and software updates for one year. Install it on your own server and bring your own AI keys or run Ollama locally.
Can I run AutoNews on my own server?
Yes. Install AutoNews on your own VPS or dedicated server, use your own domain and branding, and keep your data on your own hardware.
Does AutoNews handle SEO?
Article SEO basics — meta titles, descriptions, JSON-LD Article and FAQPage schema, clean URLs — are built in. For full SEO management (AI Overview tracking, cannibalization detection, meta rewriting at scale), pair it with AutoSEO.
What if I want to write some articles manually?
Three creation paths are built in. From RSS: the hourly auto-pull. From pitch: give the AI a headline and let it research + draft. From scratch: write your own post in the admin. All land in the same review queue.
What happens after the first year?
After one year, AutoNews remains operational. Support and software updates end unless you renew for another year at $299. Renewal is optional and is only required to continue receiving support and updates.
Can readers comment on my site?
Yes. AutoNews includes email-confirmed reader accounts and moderated comments. Every comment waits for human approval, with honeypots, rate limits, link caps, and one-click blocking for abuse. Public engagement represents real reader activity.
Can I accept press releases?
A public intake form lets brands submit a release and image to your review queue. Editors verify relevance, claims, disclosures, and links before deciding whether and how it should be published. Links do not buy coverage or preferential placement.
Can I run ads and monetise the site?
Yes — a banner ad manager is built in. House zones run across the homepage, articles, and a sticky sidebar, plus an embeddable headlines widget that carries ads to partner sites. Use a static creative or any ad-network tag (TrafficJunky, ExoClick, JuicyAds), with weighting, scheduling, and impression/click tracking. A ready-made advertising rate-card page comes included.
