Officially launching X API Pay-Per-Use

The core of X developers are indie builders, early stage products, startups, and hobbyists

It’s time to open up our X API ecosystem and instill a new wave of next generation X apps

We’re so back. https://t.co/FS66GuIYJD

How I use the @X API to quickly uplevel my agents when I’m building new things

Happy building this weekend 🤓

[Santiago @santiagomed]

We're starting up a group XChat for X API and Developer Platform feedback. Doesn't matter if you are a hobbyist or have a large enterprise that is powered by X, we want you to join to help us make the API better https://t.co/OdxkBdfTVV

[Chris Park @chrisparkX]

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.

[Developers @XDevelopers]

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.

The @xai team has published a full setup guide on how to use the xurl skill, which allows your Hermes Agent to read and write to X on your behalf — posting, searching, pulling bookmarks, managing lists, and more — all through natural language.

Try out X API + Grok with OpenClaw!

Here’s a tutorial video by @AlexFinn who’s been building with X API for over a year now.

Official tutorial coming next week in collaboration with @openclaw team.����

[Alex Finn @AlexFinn]

OpenClaw + the X API is a match made in heaven

It's an incredible way to stay on top of what's trending in the world, plus even make better content and go viral

In this video I show you how to use OpenClaw to connect to the X API and 2 use cases that will blow your mind:

We've made some key Quality of Life updates for the X Activity API:

See details below 🧵

[Developers @XDevelopers]

Yes

[X Freeze @XFreeze]

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

[Santiago @santiagomed]

Updates to Owned Reads and pricing for posting via the API are now live.

[Chris Park @chrisparkX]

𝕏 API Pay-Per-Use changes are now live featuring Owned Reads at a much lower cost.

Official Agent Tutorials coming this week.

[Santiago @santiagomed]

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
