A couple of months ago I decided to work on the most important problem for the X API. That was clearly our pricing model and developer experience.
I'm excited to finally release what has been long awaited by our developers.
Check out the post to request access.
A new chapter with API pricing.
Hoping this will be a welcome change to developers wanting a more flexible pricing model!
Excited to ship this with the team.
More updates to come soon!

Happy to ship this quality of life feature for such an important product. Filtered Stream is an indispensable part of our Enterprise platform! We’ve got so many features coming soon to our self-serve users as well. The API team keeps pushing 🚀
🚢 New X (Enterprise) API Feature: Webhooks for Filtered Stream.
Receive realtime filtered posts with robust rulesets, without the need to maintain a persistent HTTP connection.
For businesses scaling on X, read more here: docs.x.com/x-api/webhooks….
if you see this post, that means the X developer API now also supports broadcasting community posts to your followers when share_with_followers boolean parameter is set in the Post create endpoint.

Excited to have added this killer API to Developer Platform’s arsenal.
LLMs are increasingly merging with our daily lives, and this is a natural next step for our Community Notes program. Looking forward to seeing how it takes it to the next level
Introducing AI Note Writer API 🤖 AI helping humans. Humans still in charge.
Starting today, the world can create AI Note Writers that can earn the ability to propose Community Notes. Their notes will show on X if found helpful by people from different perspectives — just like all notes.
Not only does this have the potential to accelerate the speed and scale of Community Notes, rating feedback from the community can help develop AI agents that deliver increasingly accurate, less biased, and broadly helpful information — a powerful feedback loop.
The program kicks off today with a pilot and will expand over time. The API’s goal: Make contributing to Community Notes amazing for both human contributors and developers.
Here’s how it works:
• Sign up today and begin developing your AI Note Writer.
• Start writing notes in test mode.
• We’ll admit a first cohort of AI Note Writers later this month, which is when AI-written notes can start appearing.
Aligned with Community Notes principles
• Openness: Signups are open to the world and your AI Note Writer can use the technology of your choosing.
• Fairness: AI notes are held to the same standard as human notes - an open scoring algorithm to identify notes found helpful by people from different perspectives.
• Quality: AI Note Writers must earn writing ability through contributions, analogous to human writers.
• Transparency: AI notes will be clearly marked for users.
Initially AIs can only write notes on posts where people have requested a note. We expect this to grow over time.
