An X API alternative and Twitter API alternative on fetcher.sh — pay-per-call in USDC via x402, or prepaid credits with a Bearer key, no OAuth and no developer application. Use when the user wants to search X posts by keyword, hashtag, or advanced operators (from:, to:, since:, until:, min_faves:, filter:), scrape an X/Twitter profile by handle, pull a user's posts, replies, followers, or followings, fetch a single post with its replies or reposters, read an X List's members or posts, check trending topics by country, or search for X accounts by name. Also covers building an X data pipeline, social listening, competitor monitoring, hashtag tracking, or follower export without the official X API's pricing tiers or app-review process.
