Kit RSS — Questions We Hear All the Time
Does Kit have native RSS email functionality?
Yes. Kit includes built-in RSS email automation for single post notifications and scheduled digest emails. Feedotter extends those capabilities with multi-feed support, advanced image optimization, visual content filtering, custom layouts, and enterprise workflows.
Will Feedotter still send emails through Kit?
Yes. Feedotter connects directly with Kit and uses your existing sending infrastructure, subscriber segments, and subscription settings. Your RSS-powered emails go out through Kit with all the deliverability, compliance, and reporting you already rely on.
Can I use more than one RSS feed?
Yes. Feedotter lets you combine multiple RSS feeds into a single Kit newsletter while applying content filters, custom layouts, and advanced publishing rules, all from one automated workflow.
How is Feedotter different from Kit RSS?
Kit RSS has basic RSS functionality for simple content distribution. Feedotter is a dedicated platform built on top of Kit that adds precision image automation, multi-feed merging, unlimited design templates, content filtering rules, audience segmentation, UTM tracking, and a full campaign management dashboard.
Is FeedOtter compatible with my existing Kit templates?
Yes. Feedotter works with your existing Kit email templates or can power a fully custom RSS email design. Any branding, layout, or custom HTML you’ve already built in Kit can serve as the foundation for your Feedotter-powered RSS newsletters.
