Quick answer
Choose Postproxy when
Your team mainly needs one publishing API for multi-platform posts, queues, analytics, publish logs, webhooks, MCP, or workflow tools.
Choose Xquik when
You need publishing plus tweet search, follower exports, media uploads, DMs, monitors, signed webhooks, SDKs, and MCP in the same account.
Source-backed Postproxy scope
Postproxy’s official homepage describes one API for creating social posts across Facebook, Instagram, TikTok, LinkedIn, YouTube, X, Threads, and Pinterest. It also positions MCP, skills, n8n, Zapier, Make, Needle, and other workflow tools as publishing integrations. The official API overview says Postproxy can create and manage social media posts across Facebook, Instagram, TikTok, LinkedIn, YouTube, X, and Threads. The getting-started guide describes built-in scheduling, error handling, retry management, authentication, and a connected social account requirement. The official pricing page lists Free, Build, Scale, and Enterprise plans. Free includes 2 profile groups and 10 posts/month. Build lists 10 profile groups, 120 posts/month, comments, analytics, 30-day publish logs, and webhooks at USD 17/month. Scale lists 50 profile groups, no listed monthly post-count cap, 180-day publish logs, webhooks, and priority support at USD 99/month. Enterprise starts at USD 699/month. The pricing page says one published post counts as one post even when cross-posted to multiple platforms, and rate limit quotas from Postproxy and social platforms still apply. Postproxy webhooks coverpost.processed, platform_post.published, platform_post.failed, platform_post.failed_waiting_for_retry, platform_post.insights, profile.disconnected, profile.connected, and media.failed.
Postproxy’s X guide says X has strict rate limits, separate media upload limits, and shared-app publishing limits. The BYO developer credentials guide says connecting X profiles with your own X developer credentials exempts those profiles from the shared 24-hour posting quota, subject to X credit balance and platform per-app limits.

Current cost checkpoint
Use the current Postproxy plan limits when the job is social publishing. Use Xquik units when the job needs X data, exports, monitors, or account actions beyond publishing.| Task | Postproxy unit to price | Xquik unit to price |
|---|---|---|
| Publish 100 posts across social channels | Build includes 120 posts/month at USD 17/month. Cross-posting the same content to multiple platforms counts as 1 post in Postproxy. | Create tweet costs 10 credits/call. Upload media separately when needed, also 10 credits/call. Xquik publishes to connected X accounts. |
| Publish more than 120 posts/month | Scale is listed at USD 99/month with no listed monthly post-count cap, subject to Postproxy and platform quotas. Postproxy says X shared publishing includes 20 posts per 24 hours, while BYO developer credentials use the account’s X credits and app limits. | Price each X write call. Top-up credits cost USD 0.00015/credit, so a 10-credit write costs USD 0.0015 before included monthly credits. |
| Search tweets or export followers | Not a Postproxy core task; it is a publishing API. | Search tweets and follower exports cost 1 credit/result, with CSV, JSON, XLSX, Markdown, API, SDK, and MCP handoff options. |
| Monitor accounts and deliver events | Use Postproxy webhooks for post events. | Active instant monitors check every 1 second and cost 21 credits per active monitor-hour. Stored events and signed webhook delivery management are included. |
Xquik value to test
For API comparisons, price the whole task: endpoint access, pagination, retries, storage, exports, alerts, webhooks, SDKs, and maintenance. Choose Xquik when those pieces must ship together.Data & exports
23 extraction tools cover tweets, replies, quotes, reposts, likes, followers, following, verified followers, communities, lists, Spaces, articles, and search. Export results to CSV, JSON, XLSX, Markdown, or API responses.
Automation & writes
17 X write actions cover tweets, media uploads, likes, retweets, follows, DMs, profile updates, and community actions from connected accounts.
Monitoring & delivery
Account and keyword monitors check active streams every 1 second. Events can be stored, polled, or delivered through signed webhooks.
Developer tools
120 REST operations, 10 SDKs, MCP, pay-per-use read endpoints, API keys, and transparent credit billing keep integration work small.
What to verify in a trial
Run the real task
Use a real task: search a keyword, export followers, upload media, send a DM, monitor an account, or deliver a webhook. Compare outputs, not feature labels.
Inspect the output
Confirm returned data, pagination, retry behavior, webhook payloads, export formats, and API ergonomics. Then compare total cost for the same task: access, included volume, top-ups, and engineering time.
Migration path
Start with one API-backed task. Keep the current integration running while you compare output shape, latency, pagination, retries, exports, and alert delivery in Xquik. Keep the test small: one task, one output, one cost model, and one downstream owner. Switch only when Xquik gives the same X record quality with less glue code or lower cost. Price the real workload. On Postproxy, price monthly post volume, profile groups, publish logs, comments, analytics, webhooks, and platform quota needs. On Xquik, Starter is USD 20/month with 140,000 credits. Top-ups are USD 0.00015/credit, webhook and stored-event management are free, and active monitors bill only while enabled.Xquik API overview
