A 54 second film
Watch how a pact puts people your size in your corner, so your next post has someone there to answer it.
You post something good. X shows it to eleven people.
The only ones who reach out want a follow back, not you.
Your follower count has been the same number since spring.
Not because you're not good.
Because nobody's there yet.

The pricing part. Painfully accurate. Saving this for the next launch.

Browse accounts in your niche you'd actually follow.
When they want to follow you too, you form a pact.
You both follow on X. Now someone's there when you post.
Both of you want the follow. Then it's a pact.
Your follower count or smaller. Nobody too big to notice.
Pick up to five. The feed is those people.
By hand, on X, confirmed by the person you followed.
Proof it works
Every number here is a pact that landed: two real accounts that followed each other and kept the follow.
The top 10 alone have gained 221 followers this way.
How a pact works
01
You land in your band: accounts in your niches, at your follower count or smaller. Nobody so big they'd never notice you back.

See someone you'd follow anyway? Send a pact. Their record is right there before they answer, and yours is there for them.

They accept. You've got 48 hours to follow each other on X, by hand. Then each of you checks the other's follow and confirms it.

Then the honor window: you both keep the follow for 28 days. Skip the follow and it's on your profile for good. Keep it and your trust climbs.

Who it's for
Pick up to five niches. Your feed is everyone who shares one and sits in your band or below. Nobody bigger.
So every pact is with someone who'll actually notice you back.
At Silver, your room is Bronze and Silver. Gold and up aren't in it.
From the founder

@ammar_in_tech2
I've paid for Premium for a while. I post things I'm proud of. And for most of that time I've sat at a few hundred followers, watching good posts die in their first hour.
The follow-for-follow crowd found me anyway. Bots, DM requests, people who unfollowed the day after. That's the version of this idea everyone hates. I hated it too.
So XPacts is the boring, honest version. People in your niche, at your follower count or smaller. You both agree, you both follow on X yourselves, and if either of you skips the follow, it shows on your profile for good.
I'm in it with my own account. Come find me.

Questions
The longer answers are how to grow on X and followers who follow back, and how to get paid on X. Anything else, ask on X. The founder reads every reply.
It's the version with the loopholes closed. Same niche, your follower count or smaller, the follow confirmed by the person you followed, then a 28-day honor window. F4F is a DM from a stranger. A pact is two accounts that would have followed each other anyway, doing it at the same time.
No. Any public X account can sign in, with or without a checkmark. A protected account can't, because nobody can check a follow on a locked account. The room shows who has a checkmark.
Never. When a pact is on, you go to X and follow by hand, then tap I followed, and they confirm it from their own X. Nothing is ever posted, followed or unfollowed from your account by us.
Each side has 48 hours to follow and tap I followed, and the other side checks it on X. Whoever doesn't do their part is the guilty side. Their trust drops and the broken pact shows on their profile for good. Yours is untouched.
Your feed is your band and below. A pact with someone fifty times your follower count isn't a pact, it's a favor they'll quietly take back. The same follower count means the follow is worth the same to both of you.
Sending or accepting a pact costs one action for the day, and you get 10 a day with up to 10 pacts open at once. Enough to be deliberate, not enough to spray.
Nothing. XPacts is free for everyone right now, same room, same rules. If paid plans ever come, the pacts you already made and the trust you built stay yours.

Pick your niches, find your band, make your first pact tonight. Someone at your follower count is waiting to be found too.
