X Stealth Startup Tracker

Finds founders dropping cryptic 'building something new' and 'in stealth' hints on X, ranked by founder credibility.

Learn more

X Stealth Startup Tracker hunts X (Twitter) for the tells of founders quietly starting something — 'building something new', 'in stealth', 'can't say what yet', 'left to work on a thing'. It's aimed at VCs, scouts, and competitive-intel teams who want to spot the next company before it has a name or a deck. Each signal is weighted by founder credibility — prior exits, notable past roles, follower count — and returned with the source post so you can reach out early.

Frequently Asked Questions

What signals does it look for?

Stealth-mode language from individuals: 'working on something new', 'in stealth', 'more soon', 'left [Company] to build', plus teaser posts that hint at a product without naming it. It clusters repeat hints from the same person into one tracked founder.

How does the credibility weighting work?

Founders are ranked higher when their bio or post history shows prior exits, senior roles at known companies, or a substantial engaged following — the people most likely to build something that matters. Anonymous low-signal accounts are downranked.

Can I focus on a specific space?

Yes — supply a domain like 'AI agents', 'fintech', or 'dev tools' and the tracker prioritises stealth hints relevant to that area, so you're not wading through every vague 'building something' post on X.

How early can it catch a startup?

Often pre-name and pre-funding — many founders tease for weeks or months before a launch. The trade-off is that the earliest signals are the most speculative, so each comes with a confidence read rather than a guarantee.

How accurate is it, really?

It surfaces leads, not confirmed companies. A 'building something' post can be a side project, a false start, or hype. The credibility weighting improves the hit rate, but you should still verify with direct outreach before acting.

Does it deduplicate the same founder posting repeatedly?

It groups multiple stealth hints from one account into a single founder entry with their strongest signals, so a serial teaser doesn't flood your results as separate items.

What does it cost?

Free for 5 runs a day with no signup. Pro is $19/month for unlimited tracking if you're sourcing deal flow continuously.
