Frequently asked questions

Short answers about what XAICG does, what it costs and what it does with your data. For step-by-step fixes, see support.

The basics

What is XAICG?

XAICG is a Chrome extension that writes draft replies, comments, posts and threads for X (Twitter). It adds an AI Reply button and a Question button to every post. You click one, a draft is typed into X's own reply box, and you decide what happens next. Its full name is X AI Comment/Reply Generator for Twitter.

How do I start?

Add XAICG to Chrome, click its icon and sign in with Google. Then open x.com and press AI Reply on any post. There is nothing to configure and no API key to find.

Does XAICG post for me?

No. It types a draft into the reply box and stops. You read it, change it if you want, and press Reply yourself. If you would rather it never touched the page, switch to copy-only mode in Settings and paste the draft where you want it.

Do I need an OpenAI API key?

No. The writing happens on the XAICG server, so there is no key of yours to set up, to leak or to run up a bill.

Which browsers does it work in?

Google Chrome, version 111 or newer, on x.com and twitter.com. Signing in with Google uses Chrome's own account prompt, which other browsers built on Chrome do not offer.

Can it write posts and threads, or only replies?

All three. Click the XAICG icon in Chrome's toolbar, type a rough idea, and it writes post drafts in three lengths or a thread of three to eight posts. It can also rewrite a draft of your own so it reads better and keeps your facts, names and links.

Free plan and pricing

Is XAICG free?

Yes. Everyone gets 5 comments a day for nothing, with every tone and every writing mode. No card is needed. If you need more than that, Starter gives 60 a day for $0.99 a month, Pro gives 200 for $1.99 and Agency gives 600 for $4.99.

What counts as a comment?

Each time XAICG writes for you: a reply, a question, a post, a thread or a rewrite. One request brings back several drafts, and pressing "try another" to see the next one does not use another comment.

When do my comments come back?

Every allowance, free or paid, starts again at 00:00 UTC each day. Comments you did not use do not carry over to the next day.

What do the paid plans include?

Starter is $0.99 a month for 60 comments a day on one browser. Pro is $1.99 a month for 200 a day on two browsers. Agency is $4.99 a month for 600 a day on five browsers. Everything else is the same on every plan, including the free one. The pricing section has the current numbers.

Which plan should I pick?

Start on the free plan. If you find yourself running out before the day does, Starter covers a steady daily habit of replying. Pro suits people who reply for a living or run more than one account. Agency is for teams and for people who manage accounts for clients. Our guide to a daily reply routine has realistic numbers.

Can I use one plan on more than one computer?

Yes, up to the number of browsers in your plan. Sign in with Google on each one and the license is there. If every seat is in use, you can move the license to the browser you are on.

I bought a plan. Where is it?

A license belongs to the Google account whose email address you gave when you bought. Sign in with that account and press Refresh in Settings. You can also paste the license key under "I have a license key". The support page covers the cases where that does not work.

Writing quality

Will the replies sound like me?

That is the point of it. In Settings you describe your persona in your own words, or start from a preset and edit it, and you set your usual tone, reply length, language and emoji. XAICG is built to avoid the usual signs of AI writing: no generic praise, no hype words, no hashtags you did not ask for. It reacts to one concrete detail in the post, the way a person does. See how to make AI replies sound like you.

What tones are there?

Auto picks a tone to fit each post. You can also choose casual, witty, supportive, skeptical, analytical, blunt, technical or professional from the arrow next to the buttons.

Which languages does it write in?

English by default. You can have it match the language of the post instead, or always write in one of 17 other languages.

What if I do not like a draft?

Press "try another". Each request brings back several drafts, and stepping through them is free. You can also pick a different tone, or simply edit the text: it is in your reply box, and it is yours.

Does it repeat itself?

It tries not to. Your recent drafts are kept on your own device, and the latest few go along with each request so the new draft does not repeat their openings and phrasing. You can clear that memory in Settings at any time.

Privacy and safety

What does XAICG read on X?

Only the post you click, so that it can answer it. It does not read your direct messages, your followers, your password or the rest of the page.

Is the post I reply to stored?

No. The text of the post goes to the XAICG server and on to OpenAI so a draft can be written. The server does not save that text or the draft it returns. The privacy policy lists what is kept and why.

Is it safe for my X account?

XAICG never posts, likes, follows or sends anything by itself. Every reply is one you read and sent by hand. X has its own rules about spam and automation, and you remain responsible for what you post, so do not use any tool to send the same message to many people. We wrote about this in is it safe to use AI for replies on X.

Why do I sign in with Google?

So that the free allowance is one per person, and so that a paid license follows you to every browser you sign in on. XAICG keeps your Google account ID, your name and your email address. It cannot see or change anything else in your Google account.

Can I use it without signing in?

With a license key, yes: paste it in Settings and you are set. The free plan asks you to sign in.

How do I delete my account?

Write to us from your account's email address, or send the Install ID shown in Settings under About. We erase your Google account ID, name and email address. See contact.

Is XAICG made by X?

No. XAICG is an independent product of Unique Labs. It is not affiliated with, endorsed by or sponsored by X Corp.
