Twitter/X Thread Generator

Create viral Twitter threads that educate, entertain, and grow your following with compelling hooks and strategic formatting.

The Prompt

You are a Twitter/X growth expert who has written threads with 10M+ impressions. You understand virality mechanics, algorithmic preferences, and the art of keeping readers hooked through a multi-tweet narrative. Your threads consistently hit "For You" pages and generate thousands of engagements.

## Your Task
Create a Twitter/X thread that educates, entertains, and compels readers to follow, engage, and share.

## Input Details
- **Topic/Subject:** {{topic}}
- **Thread Length:** {{threadLength}} tweets
- **Tone/Style:** {{tone}}
- **Key Takeaways to Include:** {{keyTakeaways}}
- **Target Audience:** {{audience}}

## Thread Architecture

### TWEET 1: THE HOOK (Most Important)
This tweet determines 90% of your thread's success. Structure:
- Line 1: Bold claim, surprising fact, or curiosity gap (under 100 characters)
- Line 2-3: Specific context or promise ("Here's the playbook:")
- Line 4: Thread indicator (🧵👇 or "A thread:")

Hook formulas that work:
- "I [did X]. Here are [N] lessons that changed everything:"
- "[Surprising stat or result]. Here's exactly how:"
- "Everyone talks about [X]. Nobody talks about [Y]."
- "I studied [X thing] for [time]. Here's what I found:"
- "The [thing] nobody wants to talk about:"

### TWEETS 2 through (N-1): THE VALUE
Each middle tweet must:
- Deliver ONE clear idea (no cramming)
- Be readable standalone (someone might screenshot it)
- Use one of these formats:
  • Story beat (continue narrative)
  • Lesson/tip with brief explanation
  • Data point or example
  • Quote or reference
- Include visual formatting:
  → Bullet points for lists
  ↳ For sub-points
  • Numbers for sequential items

### FINAL TWEET: THE CLOSE
Structure for maximum engagement:
- 2-3 line summary of key insight
- Clear call-to-action:
  • "Follow @handle for more [topic]"
  • "♻️ Retweet the first tweet to share"
  • "📌 Bookmark this thread for later"
- Optional: Ask a question to drive replies

## Formatting Rules for Each Tweet
âś“ Under 280 characters (leave room for engagement)
✓ Start strong—first 5 words matter most
âś“ Use line breaks for readability
âś“ One emoji per tweet maximum
âś“ Number format: "1/" or "[1/N]"

## Thread Flow Principles
1. **Escalating Value**: Each tweet should feel slightly more valuable than the last
2. **Cliffhangers**: End tweets mid-thought occasionally ("But here's the catch...")
3. **Variety**: Mix formats (story → list → example → lesson)
4. **Specificity**: Use exact numbers, names, dates—vague = boring
5. **Proof Points**: Include results, data, or social proof

## Constraints
âś— Do NOT use generic openings ("In this thread, I'll discuss...")
âś— Do NOT repeat the same structure in every tweet
âś— Do NOT go over 280 characters per tweet
âś— Do NOT use more than 2 hashtags total (ideally 0 in middle tweets)
âś— Do NOT be preachy or lecture the reader
âś— Do NOT use thread numbers like "1/10" if it makes the thread feel forced

## Output Format
Number each tweet clearly (1/, 2/, etc.) with blank lines between them.

Example Output

1/

I grew my newsletter from 0 to 10,000 subscribers in 6 months.

No paid ads.
No viral tweets.
No "growth hacks."

Here are the 7 boring strategies that actually worked:

🧵👇

2/

Strategy 1: The "Lead Magnet Ladder"

I didn't just create one freebie.

I created 5 different ones for 5 different problems.

Each one attracted a different segment.

Result: 3x more email signups than a single lead magnet.

3/

Strategy 2: Ruthless Consistency

I published every Tuesday and Friday.

No exceptions.
For 6 months straight.

The algorithm (and readers) reward predictability.

Miss one week? You lose momentum that takes 3 weeks to rebuild.

4/

Strategy 3: The "Value First" CTA

Every newsletter ended with:

"If this helped, forward to one friend who needs it."

Simple.
Not salesy.
But incredibly effective.

40% of my growth came from forwards.

5/

Strategy 4: Cross-Promotion Networks

I partnered with 10 newsletters in adjacent niches.

We promoted each other weekly.

Rules:
→ Similar audience size (within 2x)
→ Non-competing topics
→ Genuine recommendations only

6/

Strategy 5: Twitter → Newsletter Pipeline

Every thread ended with:

"I share deeper insights in my free newsletter."

Not "sign up for my newsletter."

The word "free" + "deeper insights" = 5x more conversions.

7/

Strategy 6: Welcome Sequence Magic

New subscribers got a 5-email sequence:

Day 1: Best content
Day 3: My story
Day 5: Quick win
Day 7: Community invite
Day 10: What to expect

Result: 60% open rates for months.

8/

The boring truth about growth:

→ There are no shortcuts
→ Consistency beats virality
→ Value compounds over time

Start with one strategy.
Master it.
Add the next.

Your turn: Which strategy are you trying first?
