Two accounts, one table
What you learn when you compare two Twitter accounts
Follower counts are the number everyone compares, and they're the least useful one. An account with 40K followers can reach fewer people per post than one with 8K, and two accounts with the same reach can post at very different paces. This tool runs the same public-post analysis on both handles and lines the results up row by row, so you can see where each account is actually stronger.
Every row names the account that's ahead and by how much, such as 3.2x more views or +1.4 pts of engagement rate. Near-ties read Even, and rows without enough public data say so instead of guessing.
Below the table you get where each account wins, then both accounts' best posting times, content mix and top recent post side by side. Each side shows its sample size and confidence, because a comparison is only as fair as the smaller sample behind it.

Methodology
How we calculate
- 01
Which posts are counted
Each account is analyzed from its most recent original posts. Replies and reposts are excluded because they measure someone else's conversation; quote posts count as original. For reply-heavy accounts the tool fetches one more page to fill out the sample, and each side shows its final sample size and confidence.
- 02
Median versus average views
The average adds every post's views and divides by the number of posts, so one viral post can double it. The median is the middle post when all posts are sorted by views, which makes it the better estimate of what the account's next post will reach. The headline comparison uses the median for that reason.
- 03
Engagement rate
Engagement rate is visible interactions on a post (likes, replies, reposts and quotes) divided by its public view count. The gap between two accounts is shown in percentage points, so 3.1% against 1.7% reads as +1.4 pts.
- 04
Grade tiers
The A–D grade places each account's engagement rate against bands for its follower tier: under 1K, 1K–10K, 10K–100K, 100K–1M or 1M+. Two accounts in different tiers can share a grade with very different rates, because engagement rates usually fall as audiences grow.
- 05
Estimated earnings
Estimated monthly Original Content Rewards multiply each account's projected monthly original-post impressions by $5 to $12 per million. That range is Xholic's working estimate, not a rate published by X, and the table compares the midpoints. Accounts without enough recent posts with public views show Not enough data.
- 06
Leaders, margins and ties
Counts are compared as ratios (40% more below 2x, 3.2x more above), rates and scores as point differences. Counts within 2% of each other, and rates or scores that round to the same value, are marked Even. A row names a leader only when both accounts have data for it.
How it works
How to compare two X accounts
The comparison takes a few seconds once both handles are in. Check the sample sizes before reading the margins.
Check each sample
Under each profile you'll see how many original posts were analyzed and a confidence label. If one side is low confidence, treat its margins as a direction rather than a verdict.
Read the head-to-head table
Start with median views, the best guess at what a typical post reaches, then engagement rate and grade. The last column tells you who's ahead on each row and by how much.
Copy, download or share
Copy a plain-text summary for notes or a pitch, download the comparison as a PNG, or share a link that reruns the same two handles for whoever opens it.
What the comparison includes
A side-by-side view built from public posts
Everything on the page comes from the same analysis behind the X Profile Analytics report, run for both accounts at once.
Head-to-head metrics table
Followers, median and average views, average engagements, engagement rate, engagement grade, profile score, posts per week and a rough estimate of monthly creator rewards, with the leader named in text on every row.
Margins you can quote
Gaps are written the way people say them: 40% more, 3.2x more or +1.4 pts. Ties are marked Even, and missing data is marked Not enough data rather than shown as zero.
Where each account wins
Up to four plain-language bullets per account, generated from the table, such as more views on a typical post or a better engagement grade for its size.
Best times side by side
Each account's top three posting slots, converted to your browser's timezone, so you can see whether you're competing for the same hours.
Content mix and top posts
How often each account posts text only, media, links and hashtags, how much of its activity is replies, and its best recent post with views, likes and replies.
Use cases
When a Twitter account comparison helps
The same table answers different questions depending on which two accounts you put in it.
Competitor benchmarking
Compare your account with a competitor in your niche to see whether they win on reach, on engagement or simply by posting more often, then decide which gap is worth closing first.
Picking collaborators
Before proposing a joint thread, a Space or a giveaway, check that the other account's typical post reaches an audience of a similar size and that its engagement isn't carried by one viral hit.
Tracking a rival over time
Save the share link and rerun it every few weeks. Because the analysis uses each account's most recent posts, the margins show whether you're gaining ground.
Pitching sponsors
Put your account next to one a sponsor already works with. If your median views or engagement rate hold up, the comparison image makes that case in one glance.
Responsible use
Compare public numbers fairly
The comparison reads only what any logged-out visitor could see on X: public profiles, public posts and their view counts. It can't see private impressions, profile visits, link clicks or anything from a protected account, and neither account is notified. Accounts in different niches, follower tiers or posting styles aren't always a fair match, so read the margins next to the sample sizes before drawing conclusions about anyone's account.

FAQ
Compare Twitter accounts FAQ
What people ask before putting two X profiles side by side.
How do I compare two Twitter accounts?
Enter your handle in the first field and the other account in the second, then select Compare accounts. Both profiles are analyzed from their recent original posts, and a table shows who's ahead on followers, views, engagement rate, grade, profile score, posting pace and estimated earnings.
Is the Twitter account comparison tool free?
Yes. It's free, needs no Xholic account and no X login. Enter two public handles and the comparison runs.
Can I compare follower growth?
The comparison uses each account's current follower count, not its growth over time. For history, open the full X Profile Analytics report on each account, which charts follower snapshots when Xholic has stored them, or use the Live Twitter Follower Count tool.
Can I compare private or protected accounts?
No. Posts from protected accounts aren't public, so there's nothing to analyze. If one of the two handles is protected, suspended or doesn't exist, the tool tells you which one and keeps the other field as entered.
Why do the numbers differ from X Analytics?
X Analytics is private to the account owner and counts things outside this tool's view, such as impressions on replies, profile visits and link clicks, over the date range you pick. This tool uses public view counts on each account's recent original posts only, so treat it as a like-for-like public comparison rather than a copy of either account's dashboard.
Why does one account show Not enough data?
That account has few recent original posts with public view counts, for example because it mostly replies or posts rarely. Those rows can't name a leader honestly, so the table leaves them open instead of comparing against zero.
Does the other account know I compared it?
No. The tool reads public data and doesn't notify either account or appear in their analytics.
