As social media continues to grow, the need for robust tools to track, analyze, and interact with public data has become essential for developers, businesses, and researchers. Over the past few months, I’ve been working on two APIs—one for Twitter and another for Telegram—designed to help developers easily access and analyze data from these platforms.
What Are These APIs About?
- Twitter API My Twitter API offers various functionalities, including:
Fetch User Tweets & Replies: Retrieve the latest tweets and replies for any public account.
Search by Keywords: Perform keyword searches to track relevant topics and conversations.
User Info by ID or Username: Access detailed information about any user by username or user ID.
Follower & Following Info: Get data on a user’s followers or the accounts they follow.
The API comes in four pricing tiers, from a free basic version to more advanced options for heavy usage. Each plan is built with developers in mind, balancing functionality with affordability.
- Telegram API Similarly, the Telegram API allows you to track public data from channels, groups, and users:
History Messages: Retrieve past messages from public Telegram channels or chats.
Channel and Chat Info: Fetch detailed information about channels, chats, and users.
User & Bot Info: Get detailed data about users or bots in any public Telegram channel.
Whether you’re monitoring community engagement or tracking conversations, this API gives you access to a treasure trove of data.
Why I Built These APIs
I realized that many developers, data scientists, and businesses needed a simple way to access social media data for monitoring trends, conducting sentiment analysis, or just for better user engagement. I set out to create APIs that would be easy to integrate, cost-effective, and capable of handling both small-scale and large-scale data requests.
How You Can Use These APIs
Here are a few use cases I’ve seen developers and businesses explore:
Sentiment Analysis: Tracking public sentiment on Twitter or Telegram around specific topics or brands.
User Behavior Analysis: Analyzing patterns in user interactions and engagements across Twitter or Telegram.
Content Monitoring: Watching for specific keywords, hashtags, or topics being discussed in real-time.
Market Research: Gathering insights into competitor activities or customer conversations.
Plans and Pricing
Both APIs come with free and paid tiers to fit different needs:
Twitter API: Plans range from $0/month for basic usage to $200/month for large-scale data access (More than 15 million requests).
Telegram API: Plans start at $0/month with higher tiers at $50/month for extended access.

Conclusion
Building these APIs has been an exciting journey, and I’m eager to see how the developer community can use them for their own projects. If you're working with social media data or have ideas for improving these tools, I'd love to hear from you!
