X wants $8/mo so you can fix a typo. We thought that was funny. So we built a way to do it for fifty cents. No subscription. No checkmark. No loyalty oath.

A feature so basic
they made it a
luxury.
In 2023, X locked tweet editing behind a paid subscription. A feature that every other social platform offers for free suddenly required a monthly fee. The backspace key became premium content.
We’re a small team of developers who thought that was absurd. So we built TweetEdit — a tool that uses X’s own API to let you edit your tweets. No subscription. No monthly commitment. Just pay fifty cents when you actually need to fix something.
Because correcting a typo shouldn’t cost more than the tweet was worth.

How it works
Four steps. Thirty seconds. No account creation, no app download, no recurring anything.
01
Authenticate
Sign in with your X account via OAuth. We never see your password. We get temporary, limited access — just enough to edit.
02
Paste the URL
Drop the link to the tweet you want to fix. We pull it up instantly so you can see exactly what you’re editing.
03
Make your edit
Fix the typo, reword the sentence, remove the extra “the the.” You have a 30-minute window from when the tweet was posted.
04
Pay & save
$0.50 charged to your card. Your edited tweet goes live. No subscription created, no recurring charges, nothing stored.
One price.
No tricks.
We don’t want your monthly commitment. We don’t want to be in your credit card statement every month. We want fifty cents when you need us.
