“In trading speed is literally everything. Official API would spam 429 errors the second the market got crazy, and those scrapers just couldn't keep up with volume. Sorsa finally gave us 20 req/sec with basically zero lag, and built the bot that actually prints money now.”
Trading systems require continuous access to the freshest X (Twitter) data with minimal latency. The official API constantly enforced rate limits during market spikes, while popular scrapers such as Apify and Bright Data could not deliver the necessary volume and speed for live production use.
Sorsa's flat rate of 20 requests per second combined with sub-300 ms latency provided a stable real-time data stream. This enabled the creation of a fully functional algorithmic trading platform that generates consistent profit.

Sorsa is a fast, affordable, and reliable X (Twitter) scraper API that gives developers real-time access to public X data. Launched in 2022 (formerly TweetScout API), it offers up to 50x lower prices and 20x higher rate limits than the official X API, with instant setup and no approval needed.
Most teams choose Sorsa. It has a much clearer flat pricing model, AI-optimized documentation designed specifically for Claude, GPT-4o and AI agents, and a cleaner, more intuitive developer interface and overall UX. Sorsa is also strictly read-only, which provides better stability for serious data and AI projects.
Sorsa is a high-performance alternative that provides 20x higher rate limits and full data access at up to 50x lower cost. It offers instant access and simple setup, while the official X API requires expensive tiers starting from $5,000 per month and long approval processes.
No. Sorsa is a read-only API focused on data retrieval and verification. We intentionally disabled write actions to maintain high stability and protect the service from spam and abuse.
Yes. All plans, from Starter to Enterprise, have the same flat rate limit of 20 requests per second. We do not throttle speed on lower-tier plans.
Yes. Sorsa was built with an AI-first approach. Our clean JSON format and specially optimized documentation work excellently with Claude, GPT-4o, OpenClaw and other AI agents for one-shot integration and RAG pipelines.
With Sorsa, 1 request always equals exactly 1 action. There are no credit multipliers or hidden fees. Fetching a tweet, running an advanced search, or pulling a large follower list all cost the same, one request from your monthly quota.
Yes. Sorsa only accesses publicly available data on X, similar to how any browser or search engine works. The service is built for ethical use cases such as market research, AI training, and business analytics while following all relevant privacy laws.
