AideRSS is an RSS feed filtering service that uses a proprietary ranking algorithm called PostRank™ to measure "social engagement", which includes blog comments and links, Internet bookmarks, clicks, and page views to find popular posts in a feed.

In addition to filtering on the website, PostRank filtering is built into a Google Reader Add-on and a Web widget. PostRank filtering has also been added to the NewsGator Online, trawlr, and FetchIt RSS readers.

AideRSS has released an API for developers to add PostRank to applications.
