About
TwexAPI is an independent, credit-based platform for public X (Twitter) data, built for developers, AI agents, marketers and researchers. Instead of a monthly subscription, every request draws from one credit balance: a typical post or profile read costs 5 credits, about $0.05 per 1,000 reads on the Pro plan. New accounts get 20,000 free credits with no credit card, and an API key is ready within a minute. The REST API covers advanced post search, profiles, followers and following lists, replies and global trends across 50+ countries. It also offers an OpenAPI spec, SDKs, a CLI, an n8n integration and a hosted MCP server for Claude, Cursor and other MCP clients. If you don't code, browser tools let you export follower lists to CSV, look up account regions, watch trending topics, download X videos and convert X articles to Markdown. TwexAPI is not affiliated with X Corp.

How much does Twexapi cost?
TwexAPI uses credit-based pricing. New accounts receive 20,000 starting Credits, and a typical post or profile read uses 5 Credits, which normalizes to about $0.05 per 1,000 under the published conversion. Plans differ by included Credits, refresh or expiry rules, and QPS; verify the current table at https://twexapi.io/pricing. As of 2026-10-14, first-party Post reads list at $5 per 1,000 resources and User reads at $10 per 1,000.
Does Twexapi have rate limits?
Yes. TwexAPI applies plan-specific QPS limits, with 20+ QPS available on qualifying paid plans. Check the selected plan and endpoint before production use, and implement backoff for HTTP 429 responses. First-party API rate limits also vary by endpoint and access level; use the current official rate-limit table rather than assuming one universal window.
Which uses are prohibited by TwexAPI?
TwexAPI prohibits buying or selling engagement, fake traffic, unsolicited or bulk direct messages, deceptive activity, unauthorized credentials, and account actions that violate platform rules. Review the Acceptable Use Policy before using any authorized-account feature.
Is there a free trial available?
New accounts receive 20,000 starting Credits. At a typical 5-Credit read, that is enough for roughly 4,000 test reads, although actual use varies by endpoint. Sign up, open the dashboard for an API key, and verify the endpoint and Credit cost in docs.twexapi.io before running a test.
Does TwexAPI provide or sell Twitter accounts for automation?
No. TwexAPI strictly adheres to the Bring Your Own Cookie (BYOC) principle and operates as a stateless automation middleware. For account write actions (posts, DMs, likes), users must authenticate using their own Twitter session credentials. TwexAPI does not provide, sell, or manage third-party accounts.
How does TwexAPI handle Twitter credentials and cookies?
We practice Ephemeral Execution with zero persistent storage. User-supplied session credentials (such as auth_token and session cookies) exist solely in temporary memory during the transit lifecycle of a single HTTP proxy request and are immediately released upon completion. TwexAPI never records, logs, or stores credentials in any database.
