How to unroll a thread on X
- Open the thread on X and copy the URL of any tweet inside it.
- Paste the URL into the box above and press Unroll thread. Keep pulls every reply from the author in order and renders the whole thread on one page.
- Use Copy as Markdown to drop the thread into Notion, Obsidian, or a blog draft. Or download .md, .txt, or .json if you want a local file.
What you get
- Every tweet from the author in chronological order, with the full text, inline images, and video posters.
- Reply, repost, like, and view counts for each tweet, plus a total word count and estimated read time at the top.
- The author's handle, profile photo, verified status, and bio so you know who wrote it.
- A one-click Markdown export so the thread saves cleanly.
Paste any tweet, not just the first one
Most thread readers need the root tweet to work. Keep follows the author's conversation from any tweet in the thread, so you can grab the first, the last, or any reply in between and still get the full unroll back.
Read now, save for later
The thread page reads cleanly in the browser, with no suggested threads, no promoted tweets, and no dark patterns nudging you to sign up. Copy the Markdown into your own notes, or let Keep save every thread you bookmark on X into a searchable library automatically.
Frequently asked questions
How do I unroll an X (Twitter) thread?
Paste any tweet from the thread into the box above. It can be the first post or any reply further down. Keep fetches every reply from the author in chronological order and shows the full thread as one clean page, with all images and videos inline.
Do I need the first tweet of the thread?
No. The tool works with the root tweet, a mid-thread reply, or the final tweet. The unroll pulls the full author-only conversation either way.
Can I save a thread as Markdown?
Yes. Once the thread loads, press Copy Markdown to drop it into Notion, Obsidian, or any Markdown editor. You can also download the thread as a .md file, a plain .txt file, or a .json file if you need the raw structure.
Does it include the images and videos from the thread?
Images render inline at their original size. Videos show the poster frame with a link to the source tweet so you can play the clip on X. GIFs appear next to the tweet they were attached to.
Can I unroll a thread that mixes replies from other people?
The unroll keeps the author’s side of the conversation, the way a reader expects a thread to read. Quote posts and replies from other accounts are not included. If you want the full conversation, open the source tweet on X.
What happens if the author has deleted a tweet in the middle?
Deleted tweets drop out of the feed on X, so they cannot be unrolled. The tool shows the tweets that are still public in chronological order, with a small gap where a tweet is missing.
Does the thread reader work on protected or private accounts?
No. Protected accounts are only visible to approved followers, and their tweets are not served to the public API. The tool only works with public posts.
How is this different from threadreaderapp?
Keep renders the thread on a fast, clean page with no suggested threads, no promoted tweets, and no dark patterns to get you to sign up. The reading view is the whole page. If you want the thread saved to a searchable library, Keep imports every thread you bookmark on X automatically.
How many tweets can a thread be?
Long threads are fine. Keep has rendered 50+ tweet threads without issue. The tool shows an estimated read time at the top so you know what you are getting into.
Is threadreaderapp still alive? Is this a good alternative?
Threadreader is still up but relies on being tagged on X itself. The Keep thread unroller works the other way around: you bring the URL and it gives you the clean page back in a second. No bot handle, no waiting.
Does this work with twitter.com links or only x.com?
Both work. The tool accepts x.com, twitter.com, mobile.twitter.com, and mirror hosts like fxtwitter.com and vxtwitter.com. You can also paste the numeric tweet ID directly.
Do I need an X account or to be logged in?
No. The tool uses public X endpoints and does not need your X login. You only need the URL or the tweet ID.
Keep the whole thread, not just a link
Keep turns every tweet you bookmark on X into a clean, searchable entry with the full text, media, and author. Connect your X account once and threads you save from the mobile app, the browser, or the share sheet land in Keep as unrolled reading view, ready to search or export.
