See what X.com hides from you.
X-Specter is the only Twitter intelligence suite that surfaces algorithmic flags, AI-generates replies in your voice, and maps your social graph — for less than BlackMagic's cheapest tier.
What X won't tell you.
Three things X.com knows about your account — and refuses to surface.
Shadowbans are silent.
X.com loads feature switches like shadowban_sensitivity and graduated_engagement into your browser on every page load. You just can't see them. Your reach drops 40% and nobody tells you why.
Follower churn is invisible.
You lose 3–8% of your followers every month. X.com shows you a count. It doesn't tell you who left, when, or — most importantly — what you tweeted that pushed them out the door.
Best-time-to-post is a guess.
You tweet at 9am because some blog post said so. X.com knows exactly when your followers are online and engaging — they just don't show you. You're flying blind on the most basic lever you have.
X-Specter reads what X doesn't show you.
then turns it into actions you can take
Catch a shadowban in real time.
This is the Standing tab running against a sample account. Click Run scan and watch X-Specter pull live feature flags from X.com's INITIAL_STATE — the same flags X loads into your browser and never shows you.
Scan reads feature flags from X.com's INITIAL_STATE on the page you're viewing. Click Run Scan to see a live demo.

Six things X-Specter does that BlackMagic can't.
Not features we're planning. Features we shipped in v1.0. Free, on day one.
Algorithmic flag transparency.
Reads feature switches X.com loads into your browser — shadowban_sensitivity, graduated_engagement, dont_mention_search, spam_filter_strict, bot_classifier_flagged. Explains what each means and what to do about it.
AI-native replies & threads in your voice.
Paste 5 of your past tweets into Voice Context. Gemini generates replies, threads, and inspirations that sound like you — not like ChatGPT. Bring your own API key. Multi-key auto-rotation. Zero AI cost to us.
Force-directed network graph.
Visualize your follower/following graph as an interactive force-directed map. Up to 10,000 nodes on Business tier. Find communities, spot boundary nodes, discover who bridges clusters you care about.
Account archetype auto-classification.
Every account in your graph is bucketed: PREMIUM ENGAGER, BROADCASTER, FOLLOW-RING, BOUNDARY NODE. Based on F/F ratio, verified status, follower count. One click: "find more PREMIUM ENGAGERS in my followers."
Spaces tracking & host analysis.
Active X Spaces get logged as they happen. Host, title, state, participant count, duration. Find recurring hosts in your niche. Replay metadata without joining the Space.
CSV export of followers & following.
BlackMagic gates this to their $1,499/yr Business tier. We ship it free. Pull full follower or following lists with profile metadata — name, bio, follower count, verified status, account age — to CSV in one click.
X-Specter vs BlackMagic.so
BlackMagic is a good product. X-Specter is a different product. Here's the side-by-side.
| Feature | BlackMagic | X-Specter |

Write a thread in your voice — in 4 seconds.
Paste a long-form thought. X-Specter splits it into a thread, in your tone, using your past 5 tweets as voice context. BlackMagic can't do this. Neither can Hypefury, TweetHunter, or Typefully.
Your generated thread will appear here. Each tweet is editable before scheduling.

compare all features →What the first 200 builders say.
X-Specter is in private beta. These are from the first 200 installs.
I caught a graduated_engagement flag on my account that I'd been silently throttled by for three months. X-Specter showed it to me in 8 seconds. That alone was worth the install.
The network graph is what sold me. I found a cluster of 30 indie hackers in my followers I didn't know existed — they're now my most engaged audience. BlackMagic has nothing like this.
The AI thread builder actually sounds like me because it's reading my past tweets. I stopped using Typefully the day I installed X-Specter. Same for two other founders I told about it.
Why we built X-Specter.
We got tired of Twitter tools that gate basic features behind $1,499/yr paywalls. We got tired of being shadowbanned with no way to know. We got tired of copy-pasting between five different tabs to write one thread that sounded like us.
So we built the tool we wanted. X-Specter is indie-owned, AI-native, and built by people who actually use Twitter for a living. No VC markup. No data harvesting. No bullshit. The free tier does more than competitors' paid tiers — because the basic stuff (CSV export, algorithmic flags, a network graph) should be free, and the genuinely valuable stuff (AI in your voice, multi-account, integrations) is what we charge for.
