X Brain vs Fabric
These solve different-sized problems. Fabric is a general workspace for everything you save; X Brain is narrowly built for one thing, your X/Twitter likes. Which fits depends on how much of your saved content is actually tweets.
| X Brain | Fabric | |
|---|---|---|
| Price | $4.99 once | Plus $8/month, Pro $18/month, Max $54/month, all billed yearly. Monthly billing costs more |
| Scope | Built specifically for X/Twitter likes | General AI workspace: bookmarks, files, PDFs, notes, voice memos, and more. Twitter is one input among many |
| How it gets your tweets | Upload the official X archive, your whole history at once | Web clipper, mobile share sheet, or email, one item at a time as you save it |
| Covers your full historical archive | Yes, including likes X's own UI no longer loads | No, only what you've clipped going forward |
| Search type | Semantic, by meaning, plus AI classification into your own likes' categories | Semantic search across your whole workspace, plus AI chat and drafting |
| Export | CSV, JSON, Markdown, Obsidian vault | Workspace or folder export as HTML files, without tags or metadata. No Markdown or Obsidian export |
| Claude / MCP integration | Yes, read-only search over your likes | Yes, an official MCP server for Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor and others, with search and write access to your workspace |
| Where your data lives | Your X Brain account | Fabric's cloud workspace |
| Ongoing subscription | No | Yes, on paid tiers |
Choose X Brain if
- You want your entire Twitter/X likes history imported at once, not just what you save from today.
- Twitter/X is specifically what you’re organizing, not your whole digital life.
- You want your likes in Obsidian as Markdown notes, not an HTML export.
- You’d rather pay once than run an ongoing subscription.
Choose Fabric if
- You want one workspace for everything you save, not just tweets: bookmarks, PDFs, notes, voice memos.
- You’re fine saving items one at a time as you go, rather than a bulk historical import.
- You want AI chat and drafting over your whole saved library, not just search.
