Convert X Posts and Threads to Clean Markdown
Turn any X (formerly Twitter) post or thread into clean, LLM-ready Markdown with a single URL swap. No browser extensions, no copy-pasting, no scraping the X website.
Why Convert X Posts to Markdown?
X posts are valuable content — insights, threads, announcements, research — but they're locked inside a fast-moving feed designed for engagement, not preservation. Converting to Markdown gives you:
- Portable content that works in any text editor, note app, or CMS
- LLM-ready format for feeding context to ChatGPT, Claude, or Cursor
- Archivable documents that persist even if posts are deleted
- Clean attribution with author info, timestamps, and source links
The One-Second URL Swap
Before (X URL)
https://x.com/NousResearch/status/2060085673848193127
After (AnyPost URL)
https://anypost.md/x/NousResearch/status/2060085673848193127
Just change the domain from x.com to anypost.md/x/ and load the page. You'll get plain Markdown ready to copy, save, or pipe to another tool.
Sample Output

Clean, readable, and ready for any workflow.
Thread Unrolling: The Killer Feature
X threads are meant to be read in order, but the website often breaks the chain or hides replies. AnyPost's thread unrolling:
- Discovers the full thread by following same-author replies
- Preserves chronological order so arguments make sense
- Merges into one document — no copy-pasting 20 individual posts
- Keeps media links for images, videos, and GIFs
How to Unroll a Thread
Add ?thread=full to your anypost.md URL:
https://anypost.md/x/username/status/123?thread=full
Or use the Thread toggle in the web interface.
X Long-Form Articles
X now supports long-form articles alongside short posts. AnyPost handles both:
- Same URL format — use the status permalink
- Full article extraction — gets the complete text, not just a preview
- Available on Pro plans — requires credits and an API key
Articles include all the same metadata: author, date, media, and source attribution.
Free vs. Paid: What's Included?
| Feature | Free Tier | With API Key |
|---|---|---|
| Single post conversion | 5/month | Unlimited |
| Thread unrolling | — | ✓ |
| Author metadata | — | ✓ |
| Media preservation | ✓ | ✓ |
| X long-form articles | — | Pro+ only |
API Access for Developers
For programmatic access, use the same URL pattern with your API key:
# Get raw Markdown
curl -H "Authorization: Bearer apk_live_xxx" "https://anypost.md/x/user/status/123?thread=full"
# Or use the JSON API
curl -H "Authorization: Bearer apk_live_xxx" "https://anypost.md/api/convert?url=https://x.com/user/status/123&thread=full"
Use Cases
Save Research Threads
Researchers and analysts share long threads with insights. Convert them to Markdown for your knowledge base.
Archive Important Announcements
Product launches, policy changes, or news — save before they get buried or deleted.
Feed LLMs Better Context
Paste structured Markdown into ChatGPT or Claude instead of brittle links:
Analyze this thread and summarize the three main claims:
[paste anypost.md output here]
Build Newsletters
Curate X content into Markdown, then format for your newsletter platform.
Troubleshooting
"The thread is incomplete" Some X threads have gaps or the author deleted posts. AnyPost captures what's publicly available.
"Media links don't show images" Media is returned as Markdown links. Some X media requires authentication — the links point to the original URLs.
"I get a 404 error" Check the status ID and username. If the post was deleted or the account is private, AnyPost can't access it.

Frequently asked questions
- Can I convert a whole X thread, not just one tweet?
- Yes. Add ?thread=full to your anypost.md URL and AnyPost unrolls every same-author reply in order into one clean Markdown document. Each post in the thread costs 1 credit.
- Does it work with both x.com and twitter.com links?
- Both work identically. Swap either x.com or twitter.com for anypost.md and you get the same clean Markdown output with full thread support.
- What about X long-form articles?
- X long-form articles require a Pro plan or higher. The same status URL works — AnyPost detects the article format and extracts the full content.
- Is there a free tier for X conversions?
- Yes. Anonymous users get 5 free single-post conversions per month. Thread unrolling, author metadata, and comments require an API key with credits.
