Build a Twitter Thread Unroller with Claude Code

Social media tool that converts Twitter threads into readable, shareable formats. Content consumers and researchers use it to save and share long Twitter threads as blog posts or documents.

70 searches a month for “twitter thread unroller”WeekendA working first version in a day or two

The Claude Code prompt

Build a Twitter Thread Unroller web app. People search for "twitter thread unroller" about 70 times a month, plus related searches like "twitter thread reader", "unroll twitter thread", "thread unroller". The goal is a tool that ranks for those searches and makes money.

What it should do:
Build a Twitter thread unroller with URL input and automatic thread detection. Extract and display threaded tweets in readable format with formatting options. Include export options (PDF, HTML, text), sharing features, and search functionality. Add thread archiving and organization tools. Focus on getting thread extraction working first.

How to build it:
1. Read this folder first. If it is empty, set up Next.js (App Router, TypeScript, Tailwind). Write a short PLAN.md with the pages, components, any library or API you need, and what you are leaving for later. Then build.
2. Put the tool itself on the homepage so a visitor can use it within seconds, with no sign-up. Do the processing in the browser where you can, so it is fast and cheap to run. Look at how Thread Reader App, Twitshot, Spooler do it and make ours simpler and faster.
3. Make it rank. Use "twitter thread unroller" in the title tag, H1 and meta description. Under the tool, add a short how-to and an FAQ with FAQPage schema, and add a sitemap and robots.txt. Scaffold these programmatic pages from one template and a data file: /twitter-thread-unroller-[topic], /thread-reader-[format], /twitter-converter-[output-type].
4. Monetisation: Freemium: 20 threads/month, $4/mo unlimited + export options. Add a pricing page and the free usage limit, and leave Stripe checkout as a clearly marked stub with the environment variables it needs.
5. Run it locally and test the main flow end to end, including edge cases like empty input and very large files. Fix what breaks, then finish with a summary of what works, what is stubbed and how to deploy it to Vercel.

Paste it into Claude Code in an empty folder. It plans first, so read PLAN.md and steer before it starts building.
