Bio Watch: catch the account before it tweets

Quick answer: Bio Watch discovers X accounts by their profile bio — not their tweets. Give it a keyword (a chain, a protocol, a ticker) and X-Relay scans X for accounts putting that word in their bio. When a brand-new account appears calling itself "first meme on tempo" or "built on monad", you get a Discord/Telegram alert with the bio (keyword highlighted), follower count, account age, and a 🚨 FRESH badge. It's how you find a project the day it's born — before the first tweet, before the crowd. Paid feature, from $15/mo.

Everyone tracks tweets. The account existed first.

By the time a project tweets its launch, it's already been discovered, screenshotted and front-run. But the account was created hours earlier — and the very first thing a founder does is write the bio: "first NFT on <chain>", "native DEX for <protocol>", "$TICKER — bring your own wallet". Bio Watch reads that bio the moment it appears. You're early not because you're faster at reading tweets — you're early because you never needed the tweet.

What an alert looks like

🔎 Bio match · "tempo" · 🚨 FRESH · 2d old
bork · @borkapp
"your companion for tempo — memo payments, encrypted DMs, pick your gas token"
👥 41 followers · 📅 created Jul 6, 2026
matched: bio contains "tempo"

The keyword is highlighted in the real bio — no AI paraphrase, no hallucinated "why it matched". You see exactly what the account says about itself, its size, and its age, and you decide.

Fresh vs. established — two signal tiers

Both fire — you want the brand-new launch and the established account that just pivoted its bio into your niche. The badge tells you which is which; nothing is dropped for being older.

Cut the noise

A bare keyword like tempo matches a lot. Bio Watch gives you filters to keep only what's real:

Matching is word-boundary aware: tempo hits @tempo, on tempo and tempo network — but never contemporary.

FAQ

How do I find new crypto accounts by their Twitter bio?

Add a Bio Watch with your keyword (a chain, protocol or ticker). X-Relay scans X and sends a Discord/Telegram alert when an account appears with that keyword in its bio — freshly-created accounts get a FRESH badge. Paid feature; plans from $15/mo.

Does Bio Watch match the bio or the tweets?

The bio. It fires on the account's profile description, not its posts — so you catch accounts that put your keyword in their bio even before they tweet. Word-boundary matching means "tempo" won't match "contemporary".

Does it only catch brand-new accounts?

No — it catches any account that newly puts your keyword in its bio: a freshly-created account (🚨 FRESH badge) or an established one that just added or changed its bio (👀 in bio). Both are the signal — the badge tells you which — so a rebrand or a pivot into your niche never slips through.

How is this different from the Search Tracker?

The Search Tracker watches keywords in tweets. Bio Watch watches keywords in profiles — it discovers accounts, not posts. Use Search Tracker to catch a call; use Bio Watch to catch the project that will make it.

Is Bio Watch free?

No — it's a paid feature (not part of the free trial). Every paid plan from Lite ($15/mo) up includes it, with up to 10 bio keywords.
