Your competitors have apac-based software engineers in their X follower lists. These are people interested in your space - they followed a competing account because the topic matters to them. That is a signal you can act on, if you know who they are. But X gives you no way to see another account's followers intelligently - just a long list of profile photos and short bios with no filtering.
Software engineers are among the most active professional communities on X. They follow the companies, tools, and people they respect. For recruiters, developer tool companies, and technical leaders, knowing which engineers are paying attention is a direct line to warm talent and engaged users.
Catch The Good Ones lets you track any public X account - including your competitors. We classify every new follower using customisable AI-powered filters you define in plain English. When apac-based software engineers follow your competitor, they appear on your dashboard - classified and ready to act on. You see who is interested in your space and can get in front of them. This is not surveillance - every follow is public data. We just make sure you do not miss the ones that matter.
The Asia-Pacific region is a growing powerhouse in this space, and key players are active on X.

We smart-compose a personalised DM so you can send it in one click.

Catch The Good Ones: How it works
Six steps. From adding an account to a fully automated pipeline.
Add a tracked account
Add any public X account - your own, a competitor, a thought leader, a company. We start monitoring their followers immediately.
Define your search
Describe who you are looking for in plain English. "Investors with 10K+ followers" or "Female tech founders in fintech". Our AI maps it to filters.
Run a sync
Syncs run automatically on your schedule (up to 4x/day on Pro). Every new follower is classified by job role, personality, skills, and more.
Explore your matches
Your dashboard shows only the people who match your criteria. Full profile, job title, personality traits, and the date they followed.
Export and act
Download upload-ready CSVs for tools like Apollo, Hunter, and Snov.io. DM people directly on X. Or connect via our API and Zapier.
Automate it
Schedule regular syncs and let the workflow run for you. Set up automated actions via Zapier or our API. Choose your notification preferences so you never miss a match.

See how it works for youFrequently asked questions
Can I filter for specific programming languages or specialisations?
Yes. Our filters are customisable - you can search for "Python developers" or "frontend engineers with React experience" or "ML engineers with 5K+ followers". The AI analyses bios and posting patterns to match your criteria.
How do you identify software engineers versus other tech roles?
Our AI classifies based on the filter dimensions you define. Common engineering signals include job titles like "software engineer", "developer", "SRE", technical language in bios, and coding-related posting patterns. But you define what matters to you.
Can I find engineers at specific companies?
You can search for engineers who mention specific companies in their bios. You can also track those companies' X accounts directly and classify their followers to find engineers in their audience.
Can I track any competitor's X account?
Yes. Catch The Good Ones works with any public X account. You do not need to own or have access to the account - just add the handle and we start classifying their followers against your custom filters.
Will my competitor know I am tracking their followers?
No. We only access publicly available data. There is no notification sent to the account you are tracking. It is the same information anyone could see by scrolling through their follower list - we just classify and surface the software engineers automatically.
What does APAC cover?
Asia-Pacific - including Australia, New Zealand, Japan, Korea, Southeast Asia, India, and China. Profiles with geographic signals from any of these regions are captured.
