TweetDigger
You’re not researching.
You’re scrolling.
You open a profile for angles — and twenty minutes later you’re still hunting the post that actually hit. Native Highlights buries it. Tabs pile up. The banger stays invisible.

The problem
Their best post is on the page. You just can’t find it.
Left: the Highlights rabbit hole — unsorted, incomplete, a time sink. Right: the same profile, ranked by what actually traveled — so you leave with structure, not another empty scroll.
Winners stay buried
Stop guessing which posts mattered. Rank up to 100 from that profile by likes, reposts, replies, or views — high or low.
Research leaks into tabs
No more CSV exports and Notion dumps. Power search with
/me, /user, /follows —
beside the feed you’re already on.
You copy vibes, not structure
Seeing a banger isn’t the same as knowing why it worked. Pull the principles, then remix for your topic with Gemini.
The fix
One sidebar. No more research scavenger hunts.
Stay on the profile. Dig, draft, and ship without leaving x.com.
Highlights
End the burial — top posts from this profile, ranked live.
Power search
Skip the advanced-search maze. Shortcuts + ⌘/ focus.
Recent Hits
Stop missing what your follows just blew up.
AI + MCP
Don’t stare at a banger stuck — principles, remix, agents.
Schedule & stats
Ideas die in drafts. Queue them. See what lands.
Conversations
Context isn’t in the post alone — see the public thread.
They had the same problem
Hours back. Angles found. Scroll guilt gone.

FAQ
Straight answers
Why can’t I just use native Highlights?
Native Highlights doesn’t reliably surface what performed. Diggers waste time scrolling past the posts that actually moved. TweetDigger ranks that profile’s top posts beside the feed so you see winners first.
How do I install from the zip?
Download tweetdigger-chrome.zip, unzip it, open
chrome://extensions, enable Developer mode,
click Load unpacked, and select the unzipped folder
(the one with manifest.json). Full steps are on the
Install section.
Do I need Twitter API keys?
No for core research. TweetDigger uses your logged-in X session — no key scavenger hunt. Gemini powers AI remix via the companion server.
Is there a free plan?
No. Pricing starts at Scout ($10/mo) for the full research dig — Highlights, search, Hits, conversations, drafts — with no AI. Prospector ($19) adds remix, schedule, and analytics. Excavator ($49) anchors the top for teams and agents.
Does it support MCP?
Yes. Dig, rewrite, schedule, and search over stdio for Cursor and Claude when the companion server is running.
