Reply Scout
New Chrome extension for x.com

Score your feed.
Draft in your voice.
Post by hand.

Reads the posts on your screen, scores each one against a thesis and rubric you write, and drafts a reply worth sending — you edit, copy, and post it yourself. Nothing goes out without you.

How it works

Ten minutes, not an hour of scrolling.

One button scores what's on screen. You decide what actually gets a reply.

1

Scan visible posts

Up to 15 posts on screen get scored against your thesis and rubric, right where you are — Home or any List.

2

Review, sorted by score

Each result comes with why it scored that way, and a drafted reply for anything worth engaging.

3

Edit, copy, post

You're always the last filter. Edit the draft, copy it, paste it on the real post, and send it yourself.

Your rules, not a template

It scores against your judgment, not ours.

Thesis, rubric, digest focus, and voice samples are plain text you write and edit in settings. Nothing is fixed — the same signal colors the panel uses to sort your feed are yours to define.

Thesis & rubric

The one or two sentences you'd defend in every reply, and exactly how a post earns a high score against it.

Voice samples

Paste 3–8 real posts you've written. Real examples beat any style instruction — this is what keeps drafts sounding like you.
