Free Twitter (X) Tools
Instant, no-login tools for creators and developers, each powered by the same GetXAPI data API you can call in your own code.
Shadowban Checker
Test any account for a search ban and search suggestion ban, the detectable forms of a shadowban.
Open tool →Fake Follower Checker
Sample an account's followers and estimate the share that are bots or fake.
Open tool →Twitter ID Finder
Convert any @username to its permanent numeric user ID, and back.
Open tool →Twitter Viewer
Read any public profile's posts or search X without an account or login wall.
Open tool →Thread Reader
Unroll any thread from one post link and read it on one page, then copy it or save it as a PDF.
Open tool →Username Checker
See whether an @handle is taken or looks available, with X's rules applied.
Open tool →Free tools, real API underneath
Every tool here runs on GetXAPI, a pay-per-call Twitter / X data API. The tools are free and need no login, but the same lookups (user profiles, followers, search) are available programmatically at $0.001 per call with no X developer account, so you can rebuild any of them inside your own product. Start with the API key page or browse the pricing.
Which tool answers which question
| Tool | The question it answers | What you enter |
|---|---|---|
| Twitter Viewer | What has this account posted, without me logging in? | A handle, or a search query |
| Twitter ID Finder | What is this account's permanent numeric ID? | A handle, or an ID to reverse |
| Shadowban Checker | Is this account being filtered out of search? | A handle |
| Fake Follower Checker | What share of these followers look automated? | A handle |
| Username Checker | Is this handle taken, and is it even valid? | A handle |
Verified September 13, 2026. The official route to this data is an X developer account, described in X's own API overview; the tools on this page need none of it. X also documents that it will exclude posts from search results, trends and recommendations, which is the behaviour the shadowban checker tests for.
Frequently Asked Questions
Yes. Every tool on this page runs without a login, a signup or a card. Each one is rate limited per visitor so it stays free for everyone, and results are cached for a few minutes. If you need more than occasional lookups, the same data is available programmatically at $0.001 per call.
No, and neither does any other tool. A protected account's posts are not public, so they are not in any index or API for someone who does not follow that account. Every tool here reads public data only.
Yes. Each tool is a thin wrapper over one or two GetXAPI endpoints, so anything you see here you can call yourself and get back as JSON, paginated with a cursor.
No. The tools call GetXAPI, which is a third-party data API, so there is no X developer application, no approval wait and no OAuth flow. That applies to the API too: a key is issued at signup with $0.10 in free credit.
Use the viewer to read a profile or search without logging in, the thread reader to unroll a whole thread from one post link, the ID finder to convert a handle to its permanent numeric ID, the shadowban checker to test whether an account is being filtered out of search, the fake follower checker to estimate what share of an account's followers look automated, and the username checker to see whether a handle is taken.
