X API has achieved all time high usage with our new flagship Pay-Per-Use model. 📈 PPU is now the default way to build with X for self serve developers & agents. As a result, we are unwinding our legacy fixed X API tiers—starting with Basic.
Important update for X API developers: Legacy Basic plans (monthly & annual) are being deprecated. All Basic subscribers will be automatically migrated to the new Pay-Per-Use plan after June 1, 2026. Full details: devcommunity.x.com/t/importa…

𝕏 just made a massive update to its API pricing for developers It is now a pure pay-per-use model with zero minimums You pay for what you use The biggest game-changer update is "Owned Reads" Pulling your own personal data posts, mentions, bookmarks, likes, followers, lists, and more now costs literally just $0.001 per resource That means you can pull 1,000 resources for exactly $1 If you want to build personal dashboards, analytics, or list management tools, the barrier to entry is basically gone

I built xurl as a quick weekend project a little over a year ago It started as a simple tool so my team and I could hit the X API faster during development (no OAuth token wrestling) What’s been really satisfying is watching it grow into a core part of the X developer ecosystem
The new X API CLI skill is now in Hermes Agent as well! Check out the PR below or just run `/xurl <prompt>` to perform actions and read/search tweets on Twitter (note: this replaces the xitter skill and requires updating hermes agent!) github.com/NousResearch/herm…

@Scobleizer what's UP!! Did you have anything to do with the change to X API cost for get calls?? I got the following email on Thursday... Hello X API developers, We’re excited to announce an update to our X API pricing that makes accessing your own data more affordable than ever. Owned Reads are requests made by your own developer app for your own posts, bookmarks, followers, likes, lists & more. Starting Monday, April 20, 2026, these endpoints will be priced at $0.001 per request (equivalently, 1,000 resources for $1): GET /2/users/{id}/bookmarks GET /2/users/{id}/blocking GET /2/users/{id}/muting GET /2/users/{id}/pinned_lists GET /2/users/{id}/tweets GET /2/users/{id}/mentions GET /2/users/{id}/liked_tweets GET /2/users/{id}/followers GET /2/users/{id}/following GET /2/users/{id}/owned_lists GET /2/users/{id}/followed_lists GET /2/users/{id}/list_memberships This change significantly lowers the cost of common operations such as fetching your own posts, followers, likes, bookmarks, lists, and more. Additional updates effective Monday, April 20, 2026: Writes via X API will increase to $0.015 per post (from $0.01). This applies to the main posting endpoint: POST /2/tweets. Posting a URL via X API will be priced at $0.20 per post, except for summoned replies (which will remain at $0.01). Following, Likes, and Quote-Posts via API Writes will be removed for all self-serve tiers. This affects the following actions:POST /2/users/{id}/following (and DELETE for unfollow) POST /2/users/{id}/likes (and DELETE for unlike) Quote-posting via POST /2/tweets (when using the quote_tweet_id parameter) These adjustments reflect our ongoing commitment to supporting the developer community while ensuring sustainable platform operations and helping you build even better experiences on X. For full pricing details, including the complete rate card and updated documentation, visit the X API Pricing page.

Try our new 𝕏 API CLI tool with SKILL.md added to merge with @openclaw! We will also make calling Owned Reads a fraction of the cost starting Monday 4/20.
You can access 𝕏 APi via @OpenClaw. We’re trying to make it affordable without giving away the shop. Hopefully, this can be useful & fun 💫
