now do it to your tweets

Who reads your tweets before your followers do?

Get a race link and post it on X. Within seconds, X, AI labs, search engines and SEO tools open it, each one timed and named. Your followers race them, and each other, to be the first human.

01
Start a race

A fresh link nobody has ever seen. No account.

02
Post it on X

That's all. The clock starts the moment X opens your link.

03
Watch who shows up

Every company reading your tweet, in order. Then the humans fight for first place.

Every race, live

The eight lanes

  • 1 X itselfTwitterbot and anything else coming from X's own network.
  • 2 AI crawlersGPTBot, ClaudeBot, PerplexityBot, Bytespider, Meta and friends.
  • 3 Search enginesGooglebot, Bingbot, Applebot, Yandex, DuckDuckGo.
  • 4 SEO & data toolsAhrefs, Semrush, Majestic, DataForSEO and other index builders.
  • 5 Link previewsOther apps building a card: Facebook, Slack, Discord, Telegram, LinkedIn.
  • 6 Scripts & monitorscurl, python, Go, Java, headless clients and anything that says bot without a name.
  • 7 Browsers in data centersA normal Chrome or Safari user agent, but coming from a cloud server. Nobody browses X from AWS.
  • 8 HumansA browser on a home, office or mobile network. Probably a person. Probably.

Names come from user agents, which anyone can fake, so a bot only gets "network ok" when its network matches the company. Scrapers that rent home connections still pass as humans. We never show IP addresses. Claims are honor-system X handles, not verified accounts.
