Track the people that indian journalists follow on X.

The thought leaders they follow tell you who is paying attention.

The individuals that indian journalists follow on X reveal who is engaged in your space. When someone follows a thought leader, an industry voice, or a prominent individual, they are signalling interest in that person's domain. But X only lets you scroll through follower lists one profile at a time - no filtering, no classification, no way to find the indian journalists among the noise.

Journalists follow sources on X before they write about them. A journalist following an account is the earliest possible signal that coverage could be coming - or that they consider the person behind that account a credible voice in their beat. For founders, PR teams, and anyone who benefits from press coverage, identifying which journalists are in a given audience is one of the most actionable signals available.

Catch The Good Ones lets you track any individual's X account and classify every new follower using customisable AI-powered filters you define in plain English. Track the thought leaders and prominent figures that attract the indian journalists you care about. When they gain new followers matching your criteria, those people appear on your dashboard - classified and ready to act on.

India is one of the fastest-growing markets in this space, with a massive and active X user base.

Frequently asked questions

How does Catch The Good Ones identify journalists?

We classify every new follower using AI-powered analysis of their bio, profile data, and posting patterns against the criteria you define in plain English. Journalists commonly have publication names, "reporter", "correspondent", or "editor" in their bios, but you define what matters to you.

Can I filter for journalists at specific publications?

Yes. Describe exactly what you are looking for - "journalists at The New York Times", "tech reporters at major publications", "freelance writers covering AI". Our AI maps your description to filter dimensions and surfaces only the matches.

How is this different from a media database like Muck Rack?

Media databases give you a cold list of journalists to pitch. We show you which journalists have already followed a tracked account - that is a fundamentally warmer starting point. The journalist chose to pay attention. We just make sure you know about it.

What types of individuals should I track to find journalists?

Thought leaders, industry voices, conference speakers, and prominent figures in your space. The journalists who follow these individuals are typically the most engaged and relevant people in the ecosystem.

Does the person I track know I am monitoring their followers?

No. We only access publicly available data. There is no notification to the account owner or their followers.

How do you identify Indian profiles?

Our AI analyses bio text and posting patterns. Profiles referencing Indian cities, organisations, or institutions are classified as India-based.
