Opyt vs Grok
Grok is the sharpest comparison on this site. It has a native real-time stream from X, the exact corpus Opyt has to work to reach, and it is already installed, on your phone, at no extra cost to a Premium subscriber. On what is happening on X right now, Grok wins permanently, and we would not argue otherwise.
The difference is the population and what survives the answer. Grok is pointed at all of X. Opyt is pointed at the people you personally confirmed, ranked by your own signals: a follow, a subscribe or a List outranks a bookmark or a like, and two independent signals pre-ticks someone. Custom Timelines ranks a feed from your interests and interactions, which is a good feed; a ranked feed cannot be queried a year later or counted by topic.
