Fast Twitter Profile Scraper: Followers Change & Tweets

Fast Twitter - Get any public X profile and its latest tweets, plus how many followers it gained since your last run.

What does Fast Twitter do?

Every profile row carries followers_change versus your previous run of the same input, and every tweet row has views, bookmarks and quotes, so you can track growth daily without diffing exports yourself.

• Profile row: bio, followers, following, verified type, joined date, banner and avatar
• followers_change since your last run of the same input
• Latest tweets with likes, reposts, replies, quotes, bookmarks and views
• Photo and video media URLs per tweet
• Any number of handles or profile URLs in one run

Who uses Fast Twitter, and for what

• Agencies - track a client's and competitors' follower growth every morning
• Researchers - export bio, stats and recent tweets for a list of accounts
• Marketers - see which tweets get the most views and bookmarks
• Journalists - snapshot a public account before it changes

Why this Fast Twitter?

Low cases return only raw tweets without profile numbers or change, which a one-off export already covers. This Fast Twitter checks every run and tells you plainly when a page could not be read, instead of returning empty or wrong rows.

One flat row per result.

How much does Fast Twitter cost?

You pay only per result (pay per event) - no monthly fee, no minimum, and the price per result is lower on Apify's Bronze, Silver and Gold plans. The exact price is on the Pricing tab. Apify's free plan credit is enough to try it on real input.

You want	What you pay for
A quick test with the example	a few results
A daily scheduled run	only the rows that run returns
A big one-off export	the results delivered - set a maximum in the input

FAQ

Does Fast Twitter need a login, cookies or an API key? No. It reads public pages only.

Can I run Fast Twitter on a schedule? Yes - with Apify Schedules; each run returns fresh rows.

Can I call it from Python, JavaScript or an AI agent? Yes - through the Apify API, the Apify client libraries or the Apify MCP server.

Is it legal? It collects only data anyone can see without logging in. You are responsible for using it within the source site's terms and data protection law (GDPR, CCPA).

What if the site blocks a request? The run retries from a fresh connection and, if it still cannot read the page, stops with a clear message - never with made-up rows.

Do I need proxies? No setup needed - Fast Twitter uses Apify Proxy by default where the site needs it.

Troubleshooting

• No results: check the input (a public URL or a search term that returns results in a normal browser), then try the example input once.
• Fewer results than expected: raise the maximum in the input; some sites show only a part of their data without logging in, and Fast Twitter never logs in.
• The run stopped with a message: the message says what the site answered; run it again later or with fewer items.
