How It Works

While you browse X, the extension watches for video CDN requests your browser already makes and shows a one-click download button on the tweet. Clicking it saves the file straight from that URL — nothing is uploaded to our servers for this path.

Paste a tweet URL into the web form. Our server queues the job, an execution worker runs yt-dlp to fetch the video and uploads it to Cloudflare R2, then the website gives you a download link. This path can reach a higher resolution than the extension's quick-intercept, and works on any device without installing anything.

For a live X Broadcast link, logged-in paid users can queue it before the stream ends. Our worker waits for the broadcast to finish, downloads the replay, and emails you the link — no need to keep a tab open.

The same server-side pipeline as HD Download, callable programmatically. The CLI's direct-download command is different — it runs yt-dlp locally on your machine and never touches our servers. See the developers page for the full breakdown.
