What X Took From You in 2026
In March 2026, X moved native analytics behind Premium+ ($40/mo). Free users lost most per-tweet insights overnight.
The Twist: X Made Per-Creator Analytics Cheaper Than Ever
On April 20, 2026, X cut "owned reads" — a user pulling their own data — to $0.001 per call. That's a 5× drop. Reading anyone else's data still costs ~20× more under the new pay-as-you-go model.
The economics flipped overnight. Building personalized analytics for thousands of creators is now financially viable. OpenTweet was first to ship.
One analysis run per user costs us about $0.002. Even with 1,000 active users refreshing every two weeks, our X API spend stays around $4/month. We pass the value on instead of charging $40/mo.

Frequently Asked Questions
What happened to X's free analytics in 2026?
In March 2026, X moved most of its native analytics behind Premium+ ($40/mo), removed per-tweet analytics buttons from the timeline, and limited free users to fragmented mobile-only summaries. OpenTweet rebuilds these analytics using the new $0.001 owned-reads X API tier.
How is OpenTweet different from X Premium analytics?
X's native analytics show generic per-tweet stats. OpenTweet computes a personal engagement-weighted 7×24 heatmap from your real tweets, surfaces top posting windows, and ties insights into a scheduler, AI Studio, MCP, and V1 API.
What are 'owned reads' on the X API?
'Owned reads' refers to a user pulling their own X data — their tweets, mentions, followers, bookmarks. As of April 20, 2026, X charges only $0.001 per owned read, making per-creator analytics cheap. Reading other users' data still costs ~20× more.
Do I need an X Premium subscription to use OpenTweet?
No. OpenTweet works on any active X account. We use your standard OAuth connection — no Premium+ tier required.
Can my AI agent access these analytics?
Yes. OpenTweet exposes your analytics via a V1 API and an MCP tool. Claude, Cursor, ChatGPT, or any MCP client can ask 'when should I post?' and get an engagement-weighted answer using your data.
How fresh is the data?
Run a fresh analysis any time — typically once per 24h is plenty since posting habits drift slowly. Each analysis pulls your last ~100 tweets with full engagement metrics.
