    Tiny milestone: $42K MRR. One person. No funding. Next stop: $1M ARR. Anyway, back to building.

    Up before sunrise for the viewpoint. The whole valley was under fog. Worth every step.

    Humbled to announce I’ve made the 30 under 30 list. Still can’t believe it. Just a normal Tuesday between the keynote and the yacht.

    Growth Daily@growthdaily_hqFictional

    I built a $10k/month business in 7 days. I’m giving away my exact 7-step system for FREE. Comment "GUIDE", like + repost and I’ll DM it to you. (Must be following.)

    Third attempt at the rye loaf. Better crumb this time; I lowered the oven temperature and waited longer.

    Signal Sprint@signalsprintFictional

    AI just killed coding. One prompt. An entire startup. If you’re still learning to code, you’re already behind.

    Be honest: which phone brand has the most annoying fans? There is only ONE correct answer. Fight it out in the replies.

    5k personal best this morning: 24:51. Coffee has never tasted better.

    How it works

    1. Choose your filters

      47 premade filters for hooks, engagement requests, sales funnels, topics and more, plus your own words. Switch each one on or off and pick its colour.

    2. Scroll X as usual

      When a post matches, its words or image get a cover in that filter’s colour. Everything else stays readable.

    3. Decide for yourself

      Peek underneath, keep it visible, tune the filter, or switch PostZapper off from the rail at the top of X.

    Peek. Keep. Tune.

    Words and images get separate covers, and each cover has its own controls.

    Peek
    Hold it with the mouse, a finger, Space or Enter. The cover lifts while you hold and comes back when you let go.
    Keep visible
    Brings back just that text or image. Nothing is deleted or reported, and nobody is notified.
    Why hidden?
    Shows the filter and the wording that matched, with a way to tune that filter or switch it off.
    The ON switch
    Rides on the rail above your feed. Switch it off and every cover lifts; switch it on and they return.

    Peek and Keep visible never change your filters or teach PostZapper a rule. If you keep peeking at one filter’s posts, PostZapper may ask whether to tune that filter. Nothing changes unless you choose.

    Your words, too.

    Add a phrase in Your filters, or save a wording rule from the target button on any post. Posts with that wording are covered the same way.

    Recent lists what was covered and why, with Keep visible and Tune filter right there.

    47 filters. Plus your own.

    Each filter looks for wording and context: the phrase itself, plus nearby clues such as quotes and negation. It all runs on your computer, so there’s no account, API key or AI model to set up. Rules like these can miss posts or cover one you wanted, which is why every cover keeps Peek and Keep visible.

    • Local filtering

      PostZapper checks posts X has already loaded, inside your browser. It makes no network requests of its own and has no analytics.

    • No account, no setup

      No sign-up, API key or AI model to install. Open X and your filters are ready.

    • Your data, your call

      Filters, phrases, Keep visible choices and recent activity stay in this browser. Clear activity history or delete all local data from Settings at any time.

    Straight answers

    Will it catch every post I don’t want?

    No. Filters match wording, formats and the labels X supports. They will miss some posts and sometimes cover one you wanted, which is why every cover has Peek and Keep visible, and every filter can be tuned or switched off.

    Does it understand context?

    Partly. Many filters check nearby clues, quotes and negation before covering a post, but PostZapper doesn’t read intent the way a person does. Treat it as a preference tool, not a judge of what’s true.

    Do Peek or Keep visible change my filters?

    No. Peek lifts a cover while you hold it. Keep visible brings back that one text or image. Neither retrains anything or changes a filter. If you keep peeking at one filter’s posts, PostZapper may suggest tuning it, and only your choice changes it.

    Do I need an account, an API key or an AI model?

    No. PostZapper works on its own inside Chrome. There’s nothing to sign up for and nothing extra to install.

    Can it spot AI-made images?

    The two AI Slop filters read explicit wording, declarations and the labels X supports. They don’t inspect image pixels and can’t prove who or what made a post. Both are opt-in.

    Does it delete or report posts?

    No. The cover exists only on your screen. Nothing is deleted or reported, and nobody is notified.

    What does it store?

    Your filters, phrases, colours, trusted accounts, Keep visible choices and recent activity, in Chrome’s storage on this computer. Clear activity history keeps your unlock progress, including up to 499 post identifiers used only to stop repeat credit. Delete all local data removes everything and starts you again with Ink Blaster.

    Do unlocks make filtering stronger?

    No. Unlocks only change the zapper’s look and material.

    Where does it work?

    On x.com and twitter.com in desktop Chrome, version 111 or newer. Threads support is planned; it is not included in the current extension.

    Who makes it, and where do I get help?

    PostZapper is made by Tom Sage. For setup, troubleshooting and your data, see Help & support. For anything else, message Tom Sage on X.

    Less noise. More you.
