# BotBlind

> BotBlind is a free Chrome extension that detects and hides likely AI-generated and bot replies on X (x.com and twitter.com). It uses transparent rules only, runs 100% locally in the browser, makes no network requests, and never deletes, reports or blocks anything: hidden replies collapse into a bar with a "Show" button.

Key facts:

- Product: Chrome extension (Manifest V3), version 1.0.0. English and Spanish interface.
- Price: the core filter is free. A paid Pro tier for creators and brands is planned (from $5/month planned), not available yet.
- Status (October 2026): the extension is built; its Chrome Web Store listing is pending. People can join the waitlist at https://botblind.app to get one email when it can be installed.
- Who it is for: anyone who reads replies on X and is tired of AI "reply guys", engagement bots and copy-paste spam under posts.
- How it works: on X conversation pages (/status/...), it reads the replies already loaded in the browser (text, handle, timestamp), scores each reply 0-100 with rules, and collapses replies above the chosen strictness (Relaxed 70, Balanced 50, Strict 35). Each hidden reply shows its score and reasons.
- Signals: AI-cliché phrases (English and Spanish), generic praise, replies that don't reference the post, em dashes and template emojis, near-duplicate replies or repeated phrases in the thread, handles ending in long digit strings, replies posted within about 60 seconds (weaker signal up to 180 seconds), and promo/crypto/"check my bio"/DM spam.
- Controls: on/off switch, strictness slider, "hidden today" counter, and "✓ Human" / "⚑ Bot" buttons that save per-account corrections locally.
- Privacy: no X login, no X API, no AI service, no analytics, no data collection. Only the "storage" permission (settings kept in chrome.storage.local on the user's device) and access to x.com/twitter.com pages.
- Accuracy: rules-based, so it can hide a real reply or miss a bot; that is why it hides instead of deleting and explains every flag.
