Where Bangerkit fits better
- Bangerkit: our product, unranked. We make Bangerkit. It combines X analytics with Follower tracker and Unfollow tracker, so you can review post performance and see a dated list of follows and unfollows.
- Post performance over time. X analytics compares net followers, impressions and engagement rate over 7, 14 or 28 days with the previous period. It also compares posts over their first 48 hours against your follower count and shows median views by weekday and 3-hour window.
- Replies alongside analytics. Reply inbox brings comments under your posts and in threads you joined into one queue. Engage finds fresh posts on your topics, filtered by audience, language and age. On Starter, AI reply drafts wait until you send them; from Creator up, Reply Assistant can also send on its own, though a reply with a link always waits for your approval.
- Published monthly pricing. Starter $9, Creator $19, Pro $49 and Power $99. See plans and pricing for the included usage.
Switching to Bangerkit
There is nothing to export. X keeps no history of who followed or unfollowed you and when, so no app can show changes from before it started watching. When you sign in, Bangerkit imports your follower list and records every follow and unfollow from that day on.
The first visit also reads your posts from the last 28 days, so the charts start full, and the replies to you from the last 48 hours, so the inbox starts with what is waiting.
Bangerkit's limits: it works on X only and is paid, with a 3-day trial and no free plan. Plans include 50 actions a month on Starter ($9), 300 on Creator ($19), 1,200 on Pro ($49) and 3,000 on Power ($99); each reply, post, follow or unfollow sent from the app counts as one. Each attached image costs one more action. As of 29 October 2026, our Follower and unfollow tracking reads your follower count every 10 minutes on Pro and Power and every 20 minutes on Creator. A drop starts a full comparison of the follower list. We count an account as gone once two comparisons in a row miss it, so an unfollow usually shows within half an hour on Pro and Power and within an hour on Creator. On Starter, tracking covers accounts with up to 1,000 followers and checks the count every hour.
If you need LinkedIn, X, Bluesky and Mastodon writing, consider Postel. For broader multi-platform publishing and analysis, consider Fedica. For a free first follower audit, start with TwitterAudit. For converting X posts into Markdown, Ilo is the more direct fit.
