The premise

The real conversation on X is hard to collect, rank, and read. Intellegio turns it into one sourced brief for one fixed price.

From the editor's note,
May 2026
What X is for

What people actually talk about on X.

Intellegio synthesizes what's being said on X (formerly Twitter), not the broader internet. X conversation runs hottest in a handful of areas.

  • Tech and AI — model releases, agent frameworks, developer tooling, API economics
  • Crypto and web3 — chains, tokens, protocol launches, builder conversation
  • Markets and fintwit — earnings reactions, tickers, IPOs, macro takes
  • Founders and SaaS — launches, growth tactics, operator-to-operator commentary
  • Policy — bills, court decisions, regulatory moves
  • Media and culture— what's actually being argued about right now

Topics that tend to be thinner on X: deep professional verticals (food safety, manufacturing operations, healthcare provider conversations), B2B SaaS operator detail (more often on LinkedIn), and local or regional business. For those, Custom uses an analyst-designed X query, and Deep dive expands beyond X with additional research sources.

How it works

The query is the product. You approve it before any work begins.

Step 01
Describe your topic

Talk to the brief assistant in plain language. Tell us what you want to understand and what decision is behind it.

Step 02
We confirm it's a real question

Vague topics like ‘AI’ get a quick clarification. Sharp topics go straight to a refined research plan: the X query, the named entities, the audience and angle.

Step 03
Approve the plan, then pay

Review the research plan. You see exactly what will be searched, with what scope, before any data is pulled. Adjust as many times as you want, all free. We can’t know whether the corpus will be rich until we pull it; if it comes back too thin to support a useful brief, we re-run on a better angle at no extra charge.

● Transparency checkpoint
Step 04
Receive your brief and the corpus

A downloadable brief plus a permalink to the raw corpus that backed it: every post sorted by engagement, with handles and source URLs. Bookmark it.

Defense Tech: Unmanned & Autonomous Systems

Sub-$1,000 FPVs killing $50M-per-battery Iron Domes and S-300 command nodes across four theaters. The cost-curve inversion is the investment thesis. The moat is the combat receipt, not the IP.

BRC-100 on X

One working commercial demo outperforms every standards-narrative post by 2x. The protocol camp's marketing center of gravity is a $0.006 micropayment, not the address debate.

Plain answers

The questions buyers ask before they buy.

Where does the data come from?

We pull from X over a rolling 30-day window. We collect the most-engaged posts matching your query, typically the top 100, filtered above an engagement floor. These aren't 100 random posts. They're the posts that got the most traction, which is where the useful signal tends to concentrate. On most topics, reading those posts gives you more insight than scrolling through thousands yourself. Longer windows and larger corpora are available on Deep Dive.

What if my topic is too narrow?

We check after payment against real X data. If your topic returns fewer than 10 substantive posts or fewer than 4 distinct voices, we don't generate a weak brief. Instead, you get an email with three options: broaden the topic, try a related question, or request a refund. The first re-run is included in your original $9.

How is this different from a chatbot or a free X search?

AI chatbots don't give you a live X corpus. They answer from memory or search one piece at a time. Intellegio gives you the source posts, handles, engagement, links, and time window, plus a brief with themes, dissenting voices, quantified positions, and source-backed conclusions. Free X search is useful for browsing. Intellegio is built for decisions: a structured corpus, a written brief, and the raw posts behind every claim.

Why only 100 posts?

Because the top 100 most-engaged posts are usually where the useful signal is. On a topic with 10,000 posts in 30 days, most of that volume is noise: bots, quote-farming, low-effort takes. The engagement filter surfaces the posts that actual humans found worth sharing and responding to. Every brief includes a permalink to the full corpus that backed it: every post sorted by engagement, with handles and source URLs. You can verify any claim against the raw data.

Who writes the briefs?

For Self-serve briefs, Claude Haiku turns your topic into a research query, and Claude Opus writes the brief using a brief format and synthesis prompt I designed. For Custom and Deep Dive briefs, I (Bridget) design the query and synthesis prompt for your specific decision before any model runs. Every hard claim in every brief is tied back to a specific post in the corpus, and the corpus link is included so you can audit the source.

Start a brief

Describe a topic. The rest takes about a minute.

You'll talk to the brief assistant, approve the research plan, then pay. We only pull the X data after you approve.
