Why Xquik wins over TwexAPI

Xquik is the fastest X data service, & the cheapest per useful result. Public Apify benchmarks ran on 2026-09-27 & 2026-09-29. Xquik’s X Tweet Scraper delivered 39.2 useful tweets per second, the fastest. It cost USD 0.000175 per useful tweet, the lowest of 12 Actors. Every run is public on the benchmark page. Xquik publishes reproducible benchmarks with run IDs. TwexAPI publishes none. Xquik bills only delivered, unique, filter-matching results. Empty pages, failed requests, retries, duplicates & filtered rows cost nothing. TwexAPI’s pricing bills about USD 0.00005 for a request that finds nothing. Every empty search or poll adds that charge. On Xquik, an empty search costs 0. That makes Xquik the cheapest per useful result. Xquik also covers more of X in 1 product. It offers 23 extraction tools, 18 write actions & 1-second monitors with signed webhooks. Agents connect through a remote MCP server, & developers use SDKs in 8 languages.
