twitter-api45 (RapidAPI)
The cheapest broad X read API in this set on paper: a genuinely free 1,000 requests a month, then $9/month for 100,000 requests with a published $0.0001 per-request overage, across search, timelines, profiles, tweet detail, threads, followers, replies, lists, communities, spaces and trends. The catch is that it is a single seller's RapidAPI listing with no SLA, no legal shield and no documented page size, so a cost per tweet cannot be read off it, and RapidAPI's bandwidth meter ($0.001 per MB above 10,240 MB a month) is a second bill that the request price does not cover. It is read-only; there are no write actions and no DM endpoints.

RapidAPI meters this listing in requests, not results. Every endpoint draws one request from the monthly quota and the listing publishes no per-endpoint multiplier, so all six verticals are 1 request; the USD rate is the plan price over its included requests, or the published overage rate beyond it. No page size is documented for any endpoint, so resultsPerRequest is null and a per-tweet cost cannot be derived from this listing. Bandwidth is charged on top of requests: 10,240 MB per month included, then $0.001 per additional 1 MB.
Cost by endpoint
Per 1,000, at 10,000 tweets a month.
