Elon Musk-owned social network X made changes to its API pricing and limits today and also announced discounted annual plans.
The company raised the pricing for the base API tier from $100 to $200 and said it would offer higher limits and new endpoints for this subscription plan.
in Posted on the X Developer Community PortalThe company noted that the number of reads through this API will be increased from 10,000 to 15,000, and developers will get new endpoints such as reposts_of_me and community search.
However, on API comparison page And the Purchase Plan page, the API limits are the same as before. This is likely an error, and the company will edit the page (it did not respond to our inquiries).
In the announcement post, the X Developer account mentioned that it is also offering a beta reading API for the free tier. However, the company did reveal that the posting limits for the free tier have now dropped from 1,500 to just 500, and the Read API will only give you 100 requests.
X has also introduced new annual plans for the Basic and Pro API tiers which are cheaper than developers paying a monthly fee. The Basic Annual Plan costs $2,100 and the Pro Annual Plan costs $54,000.
Earlier this year, The company has introduced top-ups for an additional limit on read and post requests with a maximum of 10 top-ups for the basic tier and five top-ups for the professional tier. X is now limiting developers to just two fills per month for both tiers.
