Three X research prompts: the wish list, the competitor watch, the reply miner
You want to know what people are begging someone to build, without paying for social listening.
What hurt
yurshev (@yurshevv) shared three copy-paste prompts for using the bot's X search as a research team. Not affiliated with xAI.
What to install or create
Search the last 7 days for "i wish there was an app" in your niche and group by problem; monitor complaints and feature requests about a competitor, sorted by agreement; and mine the replies under a viral post for what people asked that the post didn't give.

The prompt
His three prompts (author-quoted)
Quoted from @yurshevv — as published. Do not invent a second system prompt.
1 · the wish list search X, last 7 days: "i wish there was an app" + [your niche]. skip ads. group by problem, count posts, quote the top 3 2 · the competitor watch monitor X for posts about [competitor]. send me new complaints + feature requests, sorted by how many people agree 3 · the reply miner read every reply under [viral post]. what did people ask for that the post didn't give them?
First run
- 1Read https://x.com/yurshevv/status/2108312646210523243 (credit @yurshevv).
- 2Fill in your niche and run the wish-list prompt.
- 3Set the competitor watch as a routine.
- 4Run the reply miner on one viral post in your space.
- 5Check the quoted posts yourself before acting on a theme.
Approval fence
Read-only research; it doesn't post or reply.
What to tweak
The biggest pile of complaints is your next idea.
