# TwitterAPI.io MCP server
[TwitterAPI.io](https://twitterapi.io) runs a hosted remote MCP server that gives AI agents read-only access to Twitter/X data. Its 12 tools cover tweet search with operators, user profiles, followers and followings, replies, quotes, retweeters, mentions and trends.
This Space is a connection guide. The server itself runs at `https://mcp.twitterapi.io/mcp`.
Want to try it right here on Hugging Face? [KaitoT/twitterapi-io-mcp](https://huggingface.co/spaces/KaitoT/twitterapi-io-mcp) is a Gradio MCP Space with 3 core tools (`search_tweets`, `get_user_info`, `get_user_last_tweets`); bring your own key as the `X-API-Key` header.
