Migrating from thshxt to KK-DATA: Complete Checklist and Step-by-Step Guide

If you’re currently using platforms like thshxt, 007data, or thdata for Telegram / WhatsApp number filtering, but are now considering switching tools—whether for higher accuracy, more flexible billing, or richer detection types—the migration itself isn’t complicated, but it does require a clear set of steps and things to watch out for.

This article provides a hands-on checklist for migrating from thshxt to KK-DATA, covering data export, format cleanup, feature comparison, billing differences, and common pitfalls to avoid. Follow this guide, and you can complete a full migration test in under 7 minutes, smoothly transitioning to your new filtering pipeline.

Pre-Migration Must-Read: Data Export and Preparation from thshxt Platform

The first step is to safely extract all your number assets from the old platform. Don’t rush to close your old account; complete the following three tasks first:

1. Export Number Lists and Filtering Results from thshxt

• Log in to the thshxt admin panel and find the “Task History” or “Export” entry.
• Export completed task results in CSV or TXT format. If the platform allows field selection, keep at least: full phone number (with country code), filtering result (active/inactive), and detection time. Also export fields with extra information (e.g., TGID, activity level) for later comparison.
• If thshxt allows exporting unscreened raw lists (e.g., via “Number Pool” or “List Management”), export those as well.
• Note: After exporting, check if the file has header rows, blank lines, or unexpected delimiters (common issue: extra spaces within numbers when comma-separated).

2. Clean Up and Standardize Raw Data: Deduplication + Format Unification

Lists exported from different tasks and sources may be mixed, and importing them directly into the new platform can cause duplicate counts or format errors.

• Use Excel or text processing tools (e.g., Notepad++, VS Code):
  • Remove extra blank lines, spaces, and headers.
  • Standardize number format: +country code + number, e.g., +8613912345678.
  • If thshxt exported numbers without the +, you can batch-add them. KK-DATA also accepts numbers without + but with the country code prefix (e.g., 8613912345678), but adding + is safer.
  • Deduplicate: When merging multiple files, use the “Remove Duplicates” feature, or let KK-DATA’s built-in “Data Deduplication Vault” handle it automatically later.

3. Check Account Balance and Task History

Before closing thshxt:

• Record your remaining plan or balance, and try to use it up before migrating (old platform balances cannot be transferred to the new platform).
• Export all historical task records; keep at least the results from the last 1–3 months as baseline data for later accuracy comparisons.

Importing and Compatibility Check: How to Adapt Old Data to the New Platform

KK-DATA supports uploading CSV / TXT files directly, with one number per line or comma/newline separated. The key point is numbers must include the country code.

Common Format Differences

Item	thshxt common format	KK-DATA recommended format	Notes
Number example	13912345678 (no country code)	+8613912345678	Missing country code will cause detection failure; needs to be added
Separator	Sometimes space or tab	CSV: comma; TXT: newline	Recommended to unify to TXT with one number per line
Extra fields	May include “Name/Notes” column	Keep only the number column	Extra columns can be ignored; KK-DATA only parses the first column of numbers

If your old lists lack country codes, handle it in two ways:

• Known country of the numbers: Use Excel to batch-add the prefix (e.g., add +86 to all Chinese numbers).
• Unclear number range: Leverage KK-DATA’s “Global Number Generator” module to generate a batch of numbers with country codes based on the range, then merge and deduplicate with your old list. Generating numbers is free.

Feature-by-Feature Comparison: thshxt vs. KK-DATA – What’s Different?

To help you quickly understand the changes after migration, here is an objective comparison of core capabilities (pricing information based on latest listings on each platform’s official site).

Feature Dimension	thshxt (common behavior)	KK-DATA
Detection Platforms	Mainly Telegram, WhatsApp	Telegram / WhatsApp / iMessage / RCS, etc.
Telegram Capabilities	tg open detection	tg open, tg activity (7/15/30 days), gender recognition (avatar), tgid export
WhatsApp Detection	Valid number detection	Valid number detection, wsid export
Single Task Limit	Varies by plan, usually 100k–500k	~1 million (suggest submitting in batches)
Billing Model	Subscription plan / points pack	Pure pay-per-check, no subscription, USDT recharge
Data Deduplication	Usually no cross-task deduplication	Built-in “Data Deduplication Vault”, automatic cross-task dedup
Export Format	CSV, TXT	CSV, TXT, with optional tgid/wsid
Task Notification	Polling / email (some versions)	Real-time Telegram push

Billing Model Difference: Pay-per-Check vs Subscription

• thshxt may require purchasing a package or monthly/yearly subscription; unused checks or points may expire. KK-DATA is completely subscription-free: deposit USDT (TRC20), pay per check, use what you pay for.
• Balance deduction timing: An estimated fee is shown before task submission; tasks cannot be submitted if balance is insufficient. The amount is deducted in real time once detection is complete.
• Price transparency: KK-DATA’s console shows the unit price for each detection type (see real-time prices in the console).

Task Management and Notification Mechanism

KK-DATA supports automatic task completion notifications via Telegram bot after submitting a task (requires enabling notification toggle). In contrast, thshxt may require manually refreshing the page or waiting for an email. For teams running batch tasks, Telegram notifications can significantly improve efficiency.

Migration in Practice: A Three-Step Workflow – Generate → Filter → Export

The core of migration is converting old lists into a format recognizable and detectable by the new platform, then running a complete filtering workflow to verify results. Here are the detailed steps:

Step 1: Build Your Target Number Pool Using “Global Number Generator”

If you have target countries or number ranges but lack complete numbers, you can use KK-DATA’s free “Global Number Generator” module:

1. Select country/region (240+ supported).
2. Set the number range (or upload a custom range CSV).
3. Click generate to obtain a random number list.
4. Generated numbers enter the “Pending Detection” list and can be used directly for the next filtering step.

Recommendation: If you have old lists exported from thshxt, just upload them directly; no need to regenerate. The generation module is mainly for supplementing missing number ranges.

Step 2: Submit a Screening Task and Track in Real Time

1. In the console, select the screening type (e.g., Telegram activity detection + gender recognition).
2. Upload the number file (or select from the “Number Warehouse” a list you’ve generated).
3. Check the estimated task fee; ensure sufficient balance, then submit.
4. After the task starts, the backend proceeds automatically; you’ll receive a Telegram notification upon completion.

Data Deduplication Vault: KK-DATA automatically compares submitted numbers against historical tasks; if a number has already been detected, it skips it (no deduction). This effectively prevents paying for duplicate checks.

Step 3: Export Filtering Results and Compare with Old Platform Performance

After the task is complete, click “Export”:

• Choose CSV or TXT format.
• Fields can include: phone number, detection result (valid/active/gender), TGID/WSID.
• After downloading, use Excel PivotTables to compare old thshxt data with new KK-DATA data for active rate, valid rate, etc. If results for the same batch of numbers differ significantly between platforms, sample a few for manual verification and take actual accuracy as the final judgment.

Common Migration Pitfalls and Best Practices

• Incorrect number format: Missing + or country code → detection failure. Best practice: Use a script to batch-add prefix, or Excel formula ="+"&A1.
• Insufficient balance: Submitted a large task without checking balance; task can’t run. Best practice: After succeeding with a small test batch, submit 50k–100k numbers at once.
• Wasting balance on duplicate checks: Not using deduplication. Best practice: Enable “Data Deduplication Vault” to automatically skip already detected numbers.
• Ignoring notification settings: No alert after task completion; need to manually refresh. Best practice: Bind your Telegram account in the console and enable notifications.
• Beware of fake support staff: KK-DATA’s official customer service on Telegram is @kkdata_cc. Always verify the admin badge; do not trust unknown accounts claiming to be “kkdata support”.

Post-Migration Effectiveness Evaluation: Key Metrics and Iterative Optimization

Migration is not a one-time action but a continuous optimization process. It’s recommended to periodically monitor the following metrics:

Metric	Meaning	Action Suggestion
Screening accuracy	Compare sampled manual verification with platform result	If large discrepancy, contact official support for feedback
Active rate / valid rate	Assess number source quality	If active rate is too low, change number range or regenerate
Balance consumption speed	Average cost per 10k numbers	Optimize detection types (e.g., only do tg valid, skip activity detection)
Exported data usability	Whether needed fields (tgid/wsid) are included	If missing, contact support to confirm field scope

Every 1–2 months, use KK-DATA’s “Data Deduplication Vault” to clean up old libraries, remove duplicate or outdated invalid numbers, and maintain list quality.

FAQ

Q: Can old lists from thshxt be imported directly into KK-DATA?
A: Yes, CSV/TXT format is supported, but numbers must include the country code (e.g., starting with +86). It’s recommended to test with 10 numbers first to confirm the format, then bulk import. If country codes are missing, you can supplement them using KK-DATA’s “Global Range Generator”.

Q: Compared to thshxt, which has higher accuracy?
A: Accuracy is affected by many factors (number source, detection time, platform algorithm). KK-DATA uses real-time detection mechanisms and supports Telegram activity (7/15/30 days) and gender recognition. We suggest detecting the same batch of numbers on both platforms in the early migration phase and comparing results; use actual performance as the benchmark.

Q: Does KK-DATA support list formats from 007data or thdata?
A: Yes, as long as you export to CSV/TXT (one number per line or comma-separated). Just remove extra headers and spaces. KK-DATA’s built-in “Data Deduplication Vault” can automatically merge lists from multiple sources.

Q: How is balance handled during migration? Can remaining plans from the old platform be transferred?
A: KK-DATA charges per check with no subscription packages; recharged balance can be used long-term. Old platform balances cannot be transferred, so we suggest using them up before migrating. For your first recharge, try 50 USDT for small batch testing.

Q: What about Team collaboration or API capabilities after migration?
A: The KK-DATA console supports parallel tasks. There is no public API announced yet (refer to official documentation). If your team has automation needs, please contact business support @kkdata_bs.
