Xquik is the world's fastest & cheapest X (Twitter) scraper service with the most complete X data. X (Twitter) News Monitor sorts news posts by format, source attribution & relevance. Every other Apify Actor charges before filtering or deduplicating. Xquik charges only for delivered, unique, filter-matching results. AI costs are included in the per-tweet price. You pay no AI provider, buy no tokens & bring no key.

Sort news posts on X (Twitter) by what they are & keep the original tweet data. X (Twitter) News Monitor with AI Analysis collects posts about your topics, then adds an AI-powered format, source attribution & relevance answer to every post. Separate reporting from commentary & speculation. See whether a post names or links a source. Keep only posts about the organizations, people or topics you track.

• Format tells reporting, commentary, speculation, promotion & satire apart.
• Attribution shows whether a claim names a source, links one, is firsthand or has none.
• Relevance keeps posts about your targets & drops namesakes.
• Complete source records for every field the tweet exposes, including linked articles when available.

How to classify news posts on X

1. Add search terms such as Nvidia earnings lang:en -filter:retweets, news account handles or tweet IDs.
2. Set maxItems & extraction filters such as date bounds, filter:news or minimum reposts.
3. Put the organizations, people or topics you track & their aliases under analysis.targets, & narrow the topic in analysis.context.
4. Run the Actor & open the dataset.

{
  "searchTerms": ["Nvidia earnings lang:en -filter:retweets"],
  "maxItems": 300,
  "analysis": {
    "targets": [{ "name": "Nvidia", "aliases": ["NVDA", "Jensen Huang"] }],
    "context": "Financial & product news about the chip maker."
  }
}

What the Actor answers

Question	Answer
Format	Reporting, commentary, speculation, promotion, satire, unrelated or unclear
Attribution	Named, linked, firsthand, absent or unclear
Relevance	Probability that the reported event concerns your targets

Classification does not verify facts. A named source is not a credible source. Attribution describes what the post presents.

Analyze your own text

Paste your own text in texts: drafts, replies, reviews or notes. The Actor analyzes it & fetches nothing from X.

{
  "texts": [
    "Central bank holds rates at 4.5%, signals 2 cuts next year.",
    "I was at the port this morning. Cranes are idle & trucks are queued."
  ]
}

• Each text becomes 1 row with the same analysis answers as a tweet.
• tweet.id is text:1, text:2 & so on, & tweet.type is text.
• Each analyzed text costs the same $0.0003 as an analyzed tweet.
• With texts set, the run analyzes only those texts. Run X targets separately.

Pricing

AI costs are included in the per-tweet price. You pay no AI provider, buy no tokens & bring no key.

From $0.0003 per successfully analyzed tweet, with no start fee. The price includes collection. The analysis allowance is 8 questions, 8,000 bytes per question definition & 12,000 bytes of context per tweet. Extraction filters & deduplication run before analysis, so filtered-out & duplicate rows are never analyzed or charged. Failed & skipped analyses & diagnostic rows have no result charge. Apify bills platform usage separately. The Pricing tab shows it.

Input & output examples

The input above is copy-ready. Output rows look like this (abbreviated):

{
  "tweet": { "id": "2100673144985993441", "text": "…", "retweetCount": 40 },
  "analysis": {
    "status": "succeeded",
    "answers": [
      {
        "questionId": "format",
        "type": "choice",
        "value": "reporting",
        "confidence": 0.9
      },
      {
        "questionId": "attribution",
        "type": "choice",
        "value": "named",
        "confidence": 0.84
      },
      { "questionId": "relevance", "type": "probability", "probability": 0.98 }
    ]
  }
}

Each result contains tweet & analysis. Answers include types, question versions & available probabilities. When a post links an X Article, the analysis fetches that article's title, preview & text blocks as context. analysis.contextAvailability.article reports text_blocks, summary or not_supplied. summary means the title & preview only. A failed or skipped analysis keeps the collected tweet with an empty answer list & a reason. Free diagnostics in the key-value store explain invalid inputs, missing results & interrupted collection, & the run report separates collected rows, charged analyses & pending charges.

Run summary & flat answers

Each run writes an analysis-summary record to its key-value store & repeats it under results.analysisSummary in the run report. It counts analyzed, failed & skipped rows, sums engagement, and summarizes every question.

• The format split separates reporting from commentary, speculation, promotion & satire.
• attribution counts named, linked, firsthand & absent sources.
• relevance counts posts about each target.
• targets gives mentions per target. Each target's top lists its most engaged posts per answer category.
• Each targets entry has choices, the format & attribution split for posts about that target.
• sourceDomains counts linked domains across the run.
• monitor.changedRows lists posts whose decisions moved since the baseline.

Every row lists sourceDomains, the hostnames it links to, & cashtags such as $NVDA found in its text. With monitor.baselineDatasetId set, the summary's monitor block counts comparison statuses & lists up to 50 changed rows.

Every result row also carries answers, a flat map from question ID to the chosen category, score, or probability. The Flat answers dataset view & CSV or Excel exports show one column per question beside the tweet, so spreadsheets need no JSON parsing. Failed & skipped rows carry an empty map.

Compare with an earlier run

Pass monitor.baselineDatasetId, the dataset ID of a completed earlier run with the same analysis settings. Every row then gains a monitor object. Its status is first_run without a baseline, new_to_baseline for tweets the earlier run did not have, & unchanged or changed for tweets it had. changes lists each format, attribution or relevance decision that moved from previous to current. Decisions compare by category, rounded score level, or yes/no at 0.5. A decision counts as changed in three cases. The earlier category falls below 0.4 probability. A score moves at least 0.6 levels. A yes/no probability lands at least 0.1 from the threshold. Near-tie jitter between runs stays unchanged. Baselines above maxBaselineRows (default 100,000) or from different settings stop the run before collection with a diagnostic row.

FAQ & support

Can I use my own questions?

Yes. Custom analysis.questions replace the defaults: 1-8 choice, score or probability questions with 2-255 categories or at least 2 ordered levels.

Why did a row come back with analysis.status of failed or skipped?

The Actor collected & delivered the tweet, but the AI analysis did not complete. analysis.reason names the cause, such as context_limit when the tweet & its context exceed maxContextBytes, or service_unavailable after retries. These rows carry no result charge. Raise maxContextBytes (up to 12,000) or rerun the affected IDs.

Does the analysis verify facts?

No. Answers describe what the post expresses & how the post frames it. Probabilities express model confidence, not truth. Review important classifications against the original tweet, which every row keeps.

Which languages work?

Extraction supports every language X serves. We validate analysis on English customer scenarios first. Other supported languages return answers with the same structure. unclear categories & probabilities show uncertainty in every language.

How do I limit cost?

Filters, deduplication & maxItems run before analysis, so the Actor analyzes & charges only unique, filter-matching tweets. Use precise search operators, date bounds & engagement floors, & start with a small maxItems to check answer quality before a large run.

Where do I get help?

Open an issue on the Actor page or contact support@xquik.com with the run ID. Free diagnostics in the key-value store explain empty, partial or interrupted runs.
