A wipe is the wrong default. Some of those posts are why someone would hire you or trust you. The scan groups the archive into themes so you can mark what goes and leave the rest. Nothing is removed until you turn dry-run off.
SohamReclaim never asks for your X password and never asks you to authorize an app on x.com. You upload the zip X already lets you download. The archive is encrypted at rest, not used to train a model, and auto-deleted after 7 days. We do not delete likes, and we do not run a task that keeps deleting after you leave.
The preview is free. It scores your 500 most recent posts. We count the whole archive first, so the price to scan the rest is exact: one payment from $15, in the billing currency for this connection. X and Reddit together are 20% off the sum. No subscription.
Download your X archive is how you get the zip. Delete old tweets is the reading of what to keep. Reddit is a separate export: bulk-delete Reddit comments.
The procedure
Step 01
Know where a live timeline stops
X's live timeline, and tools that read it, generally include only your most recent 3,200 tweets. Posts older than that can still be public, and they are still in the archive X prepares. A bulk delete that stops at the live timeline leaves the older posts up.
Step 02
Download the archive
On X, open Settings and privacy, then Your account, then Download an archive of your data. X emails a link when the zip is ready. That file is the source for this cleanup. Keep a copy. SohamReclaim destroys its copy after 7 days, and a post the extension deletes cannot be restored.
Step 03
Upload the zip without connecting X
Create an account with your email and log in with the one-time code. There is no password. SohamReclaim never asks for your X password and never asks you to authorize an app. Start a scan, choose X, upload the zip, and pick one lens: job interview, privacy, public figure, politician, or fresh start. The lens changes what gets flagged. It does not delete anything.
Step 04
Decide by theme instead of wiping everything
The free preview scores your 500 most recent posts. The whole archive is counted first, so the price to scan the rest is exact before you pay. Mark keep, review, or delete on each theme, and open a theme to override a single post. Anything below the confidence line lands in Review and is never auto-deleted. If you truly want a date cutoff, the fresh-start lens flags everything before a date you choose, except highlights you mark to keep. You still confirm each theme. Pure retweets that the archive marks as such are left out. We do not delete likes.
Step 05
Unlock the rest only if the preview earned it
One payment, priced from the post count, in the billing currency for your connection. There is no subscription. X and Reddit together are 20% off the sum of the two prices. After payment the rest of the archive is scanned, not only the 500-post preview.
Step 06
Dry-run, then delete in your own browser
Install SohamReclaim — Execute from the Chrome Web Store. The same listing installs in Edge, Brave, and Arc. Firefox and Safari are not supported yet. Open the popup, paste your scan link, and leave dry-run on. The dry run logs what would be deleted and changes nothing. When the log matches your marks, turn dry-run off. Deletes go from your browser to x.com in the session you are already signed into. Our servers do not send those requests. There is no scheduled task that keeps deleting after you leave.
Deleting on a computer with our Chrome extension is included free with your plan.
Reddit deletion is available only through the Chrome extension, free on a computer.
Questions worth asking
- Do you need my X password or an app authorization?
- No. You upload the archive X gives you. The extension uses the browser session you already have. We never ask you to authorize an app.
- Will this delete likes?
- No. We do not delete likes. Pure retweets that the archive marks as such are left out. If likes are the whole job, a tool built for likes is the direct one.
- Can this keep deleting on a schedule?
- No. There is no repeating delete task. A real run deletes the posts you marked, then it stops.
- Can you delete tweets past the most recent 3,200?
- The scan uses the archive you upload, so it is not limited to the live timeline of 3,200 tweets. The free preview is still your 500 most recent posts. Paying scans the archive we counted.
- Should I delete every tweet?
- Usually no. Mark the themes you would not say again, and leave the rest. A date cutoff is the fresh-start lens, and you still confirm each theme before anything is removed.
