TwitterAPIs is a pay-per-call Twitter/X data API. Every standard call, reads plus simple writes like retweet, bookmark, and follow, costs $0.0008 per call. A few premium endpoints cost more (DM operations and tweet creation $0.0016, full history $0.0024, full thread $0.004). No subscriptions, no locked tiers. Standard reads return ~20 tweets, which works out to $0.04 per 1,000 tweets, about 100x cheaper than the official X API. Is the Twitter API free? The official X API has no free read tier for new developer accounts. TwitterAPIs is pay-per-call, and every new account starts with $0.50 in free credits (no card), which covers roughly 625 standard calls, about 12,500 tweets, before you spend anything. ## Endpoint Price List Showing 75 of 75 endpoints Endpoint Price / Call Price / 1,000 Calls `tweet/advanced_search` $0.0008 $0.80 `user/search` $0.0008 $0.80 `tweet/thread` $0.0040 $4.00 `tweet/detail` $0.0008 $0.80 `tweet/quotes` $0.0008 $0.80 `tweet/replies` $0.0008 $0.80 `tweet/retweeters` $0.0008 $0.80 `user/tweets/complete` $0.0024 $2.40 `user/affiliates` $0.0008 $0.80 `user/bookmark_folder_timeline` $0.0008 $0.80 `user/bookmark_folders` $0.0008 $0.80 `user/bookmark_search` $0.0008 $0.80 `user/bookmarks` $0.0008 $0.80 `user/check_follow_relationship` $0.0008 $0.80 `user/home_timeline` $0.0008 $0.80 `user/info` $0.0008 $0.80 `user/info_by_id` $0.0008 $0.80 `user/likes` $0.0008 $0.80 `user/media` $0.0008 $0.80 `user/mentions` $0.0008 $0.80 `user/status` $0.0008 $0.80 `user/tweets` $0.0008 $0.80 `user/tweets_and_replies` $0.0008 $0.80 `user/user_about` $0.0008 $0.80 `user/followers` $0.0008 $0.80 `user/followers_v2` $0.0008 $0.80 `user/followers_you_know` $0.0008 $0.80 `user/following` $0.0008 $0.80 `user/following_v2` $0.0008 $0.80 `user/verified_followers` $0.0008 $0.80 `user/blocking` $0.0008 $0.80 `user/muting` $0.0008 $0.80 `list/members` $0.0008 $0.80 `list/tweets` $0.0008 $0.80 `list/timeline` $0.0008 $0.80 `list/add_member` $0.0008 $0.80 `list/remove_member` $0.0008 $0.80 `list/create` $0.0016 $1.60 `list/followers` $0.0008 $0.80 `community/info` $0.0008 $0.80 `community/about` $0.0008 $0.80 `community/search` $0.0008 $0.80 `community/members` $0.0008 $0.80 `community/memberships` $0.0008 $0.80 `community/moderators` $0.0008 $0.80 `community/tweets` $0.0008 $0.80 `spaces/info` $0.0008 $0.80 `trends` $0.0008 $0.80 `trends/locations` $0.0008 $0.80 `media/status` $0.0008 $0.80 `dm/conversation` $0.0016 $1.60 `dm/list` $0.0016 $1.60 `tweet/create` $0.0016 $1.60 `dm/send` $0.0016 $1.60 `media/upload` $0.0008 $0.80 `tweet/bookmark` $0.0008 $0.80 `tweet/delete` $0.0008 $0.80 `tweet/favorite` $0.0008 $0.80 `tweet/retweet` $0.0008 $0.80 `tweet/unbookmark` $0.0008 $0.80 `tweet/unfavorite` $0.0008 $0.80 `tweet/unretweet` $0.0008 $0.80 `user/follow` $0.0008 $0.80 `user/unfollow` $0.0008 $0.80 `article/create` $0.0016 $1.60 `article/update_title` $0.0016 $1.60 `article/update_content` $0.0016 $1.60 `article/update_cover_media` $0.0016 $1.60 `article/publish` $0.0016 $1.60 `article/unpublish` $0.0016 $1.60 `article/get` $0.0008 $0.80 `article/list` $0.0008 $0.80 `article/delete` $0.0008 $0.80 `grok/chat` $0.0040 $4.00 `user/user_login` $0.0100 $10.00 By the numbers ## TwitterAPIs pricing by the numbers Every figure below is a published rate.

The billed number is cost per call. Cost per 1,000 tweets is derived from it by assuming a full page of about 20 tweets, which is the default page size, not a guaranteed yield. Providers that meter per tweet returned, such as twitterapi.io, publish an exact per-1,000 rate instead, so the two kinds of figure are not strictly comparable. Measured across 396,817 of our own read calls, pages averaged about 13 tweets, and search pages closer to 8. ## Pricing FAQ ### How much does it cost per tweet on TwitterAPIs? What you are charged is $0.0008 per call, whatever that call returns. The per-tweet figure is derived from it: a full page of 20 tweets works out to $0.00004 per tweet, or $0.04 per 1,000. Treat 20 as a ceiling rather than a promise, because it is the default page size we request, not a guaranteed yield. Across 396,817 of our own read calls, pages averaged about 13 tweets, and search pages closer to 8, so a realistic delivered cost is nearer $0.06 to $0.11 per 1,000 depending on how dense your queries are. Even at the high end that stays well under twitterapi.io ($0.15/1K, metered per tweet returned) and far under the official X API ($5-$10/1K). ### How does TwitterAPIs compare to the official X API on pricing? The official X API charges $0.005-$0.010 per resource (1 tweet per request). TwitterAPIs charges $0.0008 per call and returns ~20 tweets. That's $0.04 per 1,000 tweets on TwitterAPIs vs $5-$10 on the official API, 100x cheaper. ### Is there a free tier or free credits? Yes. New accounts get $0.50 in free credits at signup, no credit card required. That covers ~625 standard calls (~12,500 tweets) at the $0.0008 rate, or any mix. After that, you pay per call with no subscriptions or monthly fees. ### What's included in the $0.50 free credits at signup? Every new TwitterAPIs account gets $0.50 in free credits with no credit card required. At $0.0008 per call (~20 tweets per call), that covers approximately 625 API calls or ~12,500 tweets, enough to test every endpoint, validate response schemas, and build a working prototype before committing to any spend. Credits never expire. ### Are purchased credits refundable? No, credits are non-refundable once purchased, per our Terms of Service. Because pricing is pay-per-call with no subscription and no minimum spend, you only buy what you plan to use, and the $0.50 free credit at signup lets you test every endpoint before committing to any purchase. ### How does TwitterAPIs compare to twitterapi.io on pricing? TwitterAPIs costs $0.04 per 1,000 tweets. twitterapi.io costs $0.15 per 1,000 tweets. Both return ~20 tweets per call. TwitterAPIs is 3.75x cheaper. ### Do write actions cost the same as reads? Mostly yes. Simple write actions, like, unlike, retweet, undo-retweet, bookmark, remove-bookmark, follow, unfollow, delete, and media upload, bill at the same $0.0008 read rate. Tweet creation and sending a DM are premium at $0.0016. In total there are 99 endpoints: 63 reads and 36 writes, with standard calls at $0.0008 and a few premium endpoints (DM operations and tweet creation at $0.0016, full account history at $0.0024, full thread expansion at $0.004). ### Are there monthly subscriptions or minimum spend? No. TwitterAPIs is pure pay-per-call. No monthly fees, no subscriptions, no minimum spend. Buy credits starting at $10 (12,500 calls / ~250,000 tweets) and they never expire. ### How does TwitterAPIs pricing compare across all Twitter API alternatives? TwitterAPIs at $0.04 per 1,000 tweets is the cheapest pay-as-you-go Twitter API in 2026, about 3.75x cheaper than twitterapi.io ($0.15/1K), 5-8x cheaper than Apify scrapers ($0.25-$0.40/1K), and ~100x cheaper than the official X API standard read rate. Providers that sell monthly plans can price a bundled call below our flat rate, so this is the comparison for buyers who do not want a subscription. For a side-by-side across every provider, see the Twitter API pricing comparison guide. ### How much does account monitoring cost? 1 monitored account is free, forever, on every TwitterAPIs account. The free monitor is per account, not per API key, so extra keys do not add extra monitors. Account monitoring (watch an X handle, get an event the moment it posts, delivered as a signed webhook or natively formatted to Slack/Discord) has paid tiers for more accounts, from $15/mo for 6 accounts up to $799/mo for 2,000 (see the Monitoring tab above).
