Turn a competitor watchlist into an evidence-linked brief
Use Xcatcher when the target is a stable list of company, product and founder accounts. The agent retrieves a comparable recent snapshot, then separates direct announcements from interpretation.
A four-stage workflow
The retrieval contract stays predictable as the watchlist grows from a few handles to hundreds.
Define named accounts
Include official company, product and founder handles. Remove keywords and topic queries; those need a search product.
Preflight for free
Call preflight_crawl to normalize duplicates, validate the mode and preview modeled cost without creating a quote or task.
Retrieve one approved snapshot
Use normal mode for regular monitoring. If paying through x402, approve the exact live Base USDC terms before the wallet signs.
Compare and cite
Group launches, pricing, partnerships, hiring and positioning; preserve each tweet_link and disclose empty or failed handles.
Recommended output
A useful brief distinguishes observation from inference.
Analyst interpretation
Label conclusions such as positioning shifts or launch cadence as inference, not as the account's own claim.
Missing evidence
List requested handles with no returned posts and upstream failures. Do not treat an empty snapshot as proof of silence.
Starter prompt
Replace the bracketed list and comparison window.
Use Xcatcher to preflight [COMPANY AND FOUNDER HANDLES] in normal mode. Show cost before any payment. Retrieve one approved recent snapshot, then compare product launches, pricing changes, partnerships and hiring signals. Preserve source links, label inference, and report coverage gaps.
