What’s shipped. What’s coming. What we’re still figuring out.
Readablog is real software being built in real time, not a glossy launch. Here’s where we are.
Shipped today
- The WOTF binary specification, documented and versioned.
- A working iOS and Android app with the full WordPress.com Reader experience.
- OAuth (PKCE) sign-in.
- Smart Profile authoring (abstract plus topic chips).
- Smart Feed ranked stream with per-card sentiment signal.
- Local-first user model storage with field-by-field updates.
- Three new wpcom REST endpoints with strict validation and server-side checksum enforcement.
Coming next
- A public, canonical home for the WOTF spec.
- On-device synthesis of interest strands, so the model is generated locally as well as stored locally.
- Cross-service WOTF export, so your model can travel beyond Readablog.
- More signal sources beyond the user-written abstract (subscriptions, activity).
What we’re still figuring out
We don’t yet know how WOTF should travel between services. We don’t yet know the right adoption model for third-party implementers. We’d like to hear from anyone building in this space.
