Batches & Brags

Collect X followers into numbered batches and prepare a shoutout draft.

Your new followers deserve a proper welcome. Your time deserves better than to be wasted on taking another screenshot, typing another list of usernames, and keeping track of who you already shouted out. Batch & Brag for X turns follower notifications into ready-to-share thank-you posts and offers shortcuts and automations for quick posting. It was made by @manvankaliber after his new follower-notification screenshot format went viral on X. This is the tool he built to make that routine easier for everyone. WHO IS IT FOR? Creators, indie hackers, founders, builders, and anyone meeting new people on X. Especially useful when a post takes off, followers arrive quickly, and you want to acknowledge people without losing track of who you have already thanked. HOW IT WORKS Pin the extension and click on it. It will open the side panel and visit X notifications. The extension collects the follower handles X makes available, remembers unique people, and groups them into batches. Choose 10, 20, or 100 followers per batch, or set your own size. When a batch is complete, it generates a post from your chosen or selfmade template and creates a eye-catching notification-style image from scratch. Edit the message, check the image preview, and click "post" to open and prepare a draft post on X. By default you review and submit the draft yourself. No more repeatedly editing the page and taking screenshots by hand. REMEMBER WHO YOU THANKED Keeps local batch history and avoids collecting the same handle twice. If you post through the extension, it saves links to posts shared through the extension for later backtracking. This allows for the extension to optionally quote your previous batch post to connect your shoutouts into a thread. MAKE IT YOURS Choose extension themes, gradient backgrounds, image shapes, profile-photo order, and which notification details to show. Write your own post template using tags such as {batch}, {nextBatch}, and {usernames}, or try a built-in template. Include image alt text and optionally tag up to ten followers who allow photo tags. X does not support those photo tags on scheduled posts. KEEP COLLECTING WHILE YOU WORK The toolbar icon shows progress toward the next batch. Optional background monitoring checks for followers while Chrome is running. Optional Auto post and Auto schedule can share completed batches or space them out through X's native scheduler. Automation is off by default and uses your existing signed-in X session. GROW AT YOUR OWN PACE Gamified mode gives you a milestone map and a random emoji reward every five completed batches, through batch #100. Prefer a straightforward workflow?

Your history and settings stay in your browser profile. Collection and posting require an internet connection and a signed-in X account. The extension uses X's website and undocumented session endpoints; it is not a fully offline tool. X can change its interface or endpoints, and not every follower is exposed in notifications. The extension cannot guarantee complete follower capture or follower growth. Its generated notification images are recreations based on tracked accounts, not actual screenshots of X.
