#3Author here. I build this to learn and ship something with Elixir.
I know it's not a new idea, there are plenty of alternatives to track unfollowers, but couldn't find any that works inside twitter.
I got the idea recently reading some political tweets about a situation in my region (Catalonia, Spain). I usually follow tech people and this days they're tweeting political stuff and I wondered how many people unfollow them after those tweets.
I'd appreciate any feedback :)

#4Could you elaborate how this works? I imagine you're comparing your followers and then scanning for each, prev followers list and new one, so notifying when a diff detected.
How do you think a good digest could be made so a twitter user with a long list of followers can receive notifications not bothering too much?

I have a process to always follow my followers (and unfollow unfollowers) so I can DM them.
Regarding the checks, the initial free plan (just following my bot) comes with weekly checks. That means I'll fetch your followers once a week and compare with last week's, find out who is missing and sending you a DM with the list of all unfollowers. So you'll basically a weekly DM with unfollowers.
Daily, hourly and realtime plans work in the same way but with a higher frequency, but without any kind of digest, just one DM with the list of unfollowers in the time window.

#6Cool! I created something similar for Twitch (and upcoming support for more platforms) @ https://www.unfollow.io.
I don't have a monetization model yet, but yours looks really fair.

Nice! I'm also planning to add more platforms if users show interest, but for now I'm focused on twitter for a long time.
