Tweet Thread Splitter

Paste a blog post, draft, or essay — we split it into ready-to-post tweets at word boundaries with thread numbering.

Example: Long article text…1/4 First tweet… 2/4 Next tweet…

Twitter / X threads convert long-form content into a sequence of 280-character tweets. The hard part is splitting cleanly: at word boundaries (never mid-word), counting the "1/9 " prefix against your character budget, and producing chunks short enough to leave room for hashtags or polls.

This tool handles all of that. Paste your blog post, essay, or draft; the output is a clean numbered thread you can copy tweet-by-tweet into the X composer.

Use cases

Repurposing blog posts into threads

X engagement on threads of 8–12 tweets often beats blog-post link CTRs by 3–5×. Convert your latest post into a thread, post the thread first, drop the link in the final tweet.

Newsletter promotion

Substack/Beehiiv writers thread the highlights of each new issue. The thread drives the subscribe.

Conference talk transcripts

Just gave a talk? Thread the script while the room is still excited. Far better reach than a recording link no one clicks.

Analysis and breakdowns

Sports, finance, politics — analysts who thread their hot take get more reach than analysts who link to a Medium post.

Long replies and explanations

Sometimes a single tweet isn't enough. Quote-tweet your own first chunk and reply to it with the next, and so on.

Frequently asked questions

Why 8 reserved characters per tweet?

The numbering prefix "NN/NN " can take up to 7 characters; the trailing space is the 8th. The tool slightly under-budgets so the prefix never accidentally pushes content over 280 in real-world use.

Why does it sometimes split mid-sentence?

It splits at word boundaries (whitespace), not sentence boundaries. If you want strict sentence-boundary splits, add line breaks at sentence ends in your input.

Can I use it for Mastodon (500-char) or Bluesky (300-char)?

Yes — change the per-tweet limit to 500 or 300. The tool accepts limits from 50 to 500 characters.

Does it handle URLs and hashtags correctly?

It treats them as regular characters. X's actual URL counting (every URL = 23 chars) is more nuanced — leave 30 characters of headroom if you'll add a URL.
