Twilert review
A focused X monitoring tool for scheduled keyword and account email alerts.
Reviewed by iTechGuides Editors · Editorial team · Updated Nov 2026
Twilert monitors X posts for user-defined keywords, phrases, hashtags, and accounts, then sends matching results as email alerts. It supports Boolean-style operators, exclusions, link and retweet filters, and filters by location or language. Scheduling ranges from weekly to daily and hourly, making it suitable for individuals and small teams that need focused notifications about conversations on X rather than broad social or web monitoring.
The Free-Forever Daily Alert plan provides one free daily alert. Solopreneur costs $9 per month and adds weekly, daily, and hourly scheduling with standard support. Professional costs $19 per month and checks near real time every five minutes, while adding searchable history, programmatic RSS and JSON feeds, and standard support with a 24-hour response time. Agency costs $97 per month and adds white-label emails, email groups, searchable history, RSS, JSON, and ATOM feeds, plus concierge support. These tiers make the main upgrade path alert frequency, history, feeds, and team-oriented delivery.
Twilert’s strongest fit is a narrow workflow: define precise X searches and route matching posts into email or, on eligible plans, machine-readable feeds. Searchable history on Professional and Agency supports reviewing prior matches, while Agency’s email groups and white-label messages suit client-facing or multi-recipient delivery. The product remains focused on X and is delivered through the web, so organizations seeking monitoring across several networks or the wider web should choose a broader platform. It also does not provide sentiment analysis or report exports. Pick Twilert when targeted X alerts are the priority; avoid it when cross-channel analysis is central.
