How to reach them
Use our DM functionality to message them directly on XCatch 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.
Frequently asked questions
Can I see which investors follow my competitors?
Yes. Add any public X account to your watchlist. Every new follower gets classified - including investors, VCs, and angels. You will see when investors start paying attention to companies in your space.
How do you identify investors specifically?
Our AI classifies people based on their bio, job title signals, follower patterns, and engagement behaviour. You can also define custom criteria - for example, "managing partners at funds with 10K+ followers" - to narrow the match.
Is this useful if I am not fundraising right now?
Absolutely. The best time to build investor relationships is before you need money. Knowing which investors follow your space lets you engage with their content, build familiarity, and make the eventual ask feel natural.
Can I track operator and advisor interest too?
Yes. Define any criteria you want - "startup operators with 5K+ followers", "ex-founders who angel invest", "YC alumni." The classification is as specific as your description.
How often does it sync?
Daily. You get notified via email or Telegram whenever a new match appears. For most founders, a daily cadence is ideal - frequent enough to act quickly, without being overwhelming.
