Free early beta · A Shango Bashi product

Turn your X following graph into usable data.

FollowGraph is a privacy-first browser extension for exporting, auditing, and analyzing X/Twitter following graphs. It converts the Following page into clean CSV and JSON files that users can sort, filter, archive, and inspect outside the X interface.

Built for users who have outgrown manual graph cleanup, FollowGraph makes it easier to review large following lists, identify inactive or potentially stale accounts, preserve network context, and understand the attention graph behind the feed.

No separate OAuth login. No server upload. No tracking. Your graph stays local.

Problem

Following graphs are valuable, but the interface makes them hard to manage.

X/Twitter following lists can become large, noisy, and difficult to audit. Users who hit following limits, change focus, shift markets, or need cleaner source lists often face the same inefficient workflow: scroll through a virtualized list, open profiles manually, check relevance one account at a time, and lose context halfway through the process.

That workflow does not scale. FollowGraph replaces endless manual review with a portable graph export users can inspect properly.

Manual review breaks down Context gets lost The graph is trapped

Manual review breaks down

Infinite-scroll interfaces do not scale. Large following lists are difficult to inspect inside an infinite-scroll interface.

Context gets lost

Reviewing inside the feed hides useful structure. Users cannot easily sort, filter, preserve, or compare the accounts they follow.

The graph is trapped

Attention networks should become usable data. A valuable attention network remains locked inside a feed interface instead of becoming usable data.

Product

Private export and audit for the X/Twitter following graph.

FollowGraph scans the user's own X/Twitter Following page in the browser, extracts accounts during the scroll loop, deduplicates results, saves local progress, and exports the graph as CSV and JSON. The result is a portable dataset that can be reviewed in spreadsheets, scripts, notebooks, dashboards, databases, or internal analysis workflows.

Export the graph

Convert the X/Twitter Following page into clean CSV and JSON files.

Audit outside the feed

Sort, filter, inspect, and review accounts without relying on endless scrolling.

Preserve network context

Keep a local snapshot of the people, institutions, communities, and markets represented in the following graph.

Support cleanup decisions

Identify inactive or potentially stale follows faster, then decide what still belongs.

Recover local progress

Use local scan progress to reduce the cost of interrupted sessions.

Work with real files

Use CSV for spreadsheets and JSON for scripts, analysis pipelines, and graph workflows.

Use cases

Built for people whose attention graph matters.

FollowGraph is useful for anyone who treats their X/Twitter network as more than a feed.

Creators and operators

Clean up noisy following lists, preserve useful relationships, and regain control over the network behind the feed.

Researchers and journalists

Build source lists, audit expert networks, and keep portable records of relevant accounts.

Founders and investors

Map markets, communities, builders, analysts, institutions, and emerging attention patterns.

Analysts and power users

Turn a large following list into structured data for filtering, scoring, archiving, or external graph analysis.

Your following graph is not just a list of accounts. It is a structured map of attention, context, and signal.

Architecture

Designed for the way X actually loads following lists.

X/Twitter does not expose large following lists as a simple static page. The interface loads accounts dynamically as users scroll. FollowGraph is designed around that reality: it extracts accounts during the scrolling process, deduplicates results, saves progress locally, and produces structured exports from a list that would otherwise remain difficult to inspect.

Privacy

The graph stays local.

FollowGraph is designed around a simple privacy model: the user's following graph should not need to leave their machine in order to become useful. The extension scans locally in the browser, stores progress locally, and generates exports locally.

No account handoff

No separate OAuth login, no account credential collection, and no remote account connection.

No graph upload

No server upload, no backend graph storage, and no analytics pipeline collecting the following list.

Local workflow

Scanning, progress storage, and export generation happen locally in the browser.

No separate OAuth login No server upload No account credential collection No backend graph storage No analytics pipeline collecting the following list Local scan Local progress Local export

FollowGraph is for inspecting the user's own following graph, not for automating engagement or collecting private third-party data.

Output

Portable files instead of trapped social data.

FollowGraph exports the following graph in formats users can work with immediately.

CSV for review

CSV is ideal for spreadsheets, manual review, cleanup workflows, sorting, and filtering.

JSON for systems

JSON is ideal for scripts, notebooks, databases, dashboards, and external graph analysis workflows.

Files users control

The user leaves with a file they control, not another interface they have to scroll through.

Beta

Free early beta, hardened against real graphs.

FollowGraph is currently available as a free early beta. The goal is to test the extension against real following graphs, real browser environments, and real edge cases.

The current beta supports client-side scanning, local progress, CSV/JSON export, and Chrome/Edge installation. Because X/Twitter changes its interface frequently, some edge cases may break and should be reported.
