Free Twitter notification bot for Discord — 2 accounts, no API key

X-Relay is a free Twitter notification bot for Discord: you add the bot to your server, pick a channel, paste an X handle, and every new post from that account shows up in that channel. Two tracked accounts are free in Discord — no X/Twitter API key, no webhook to build, no code. Above two accounts it is paid, starting at $15/mo for 10 accounts.

How do I add the bot to my Discord server?

1. Open the X-Relay invite link and choose the server. Discord requires the Manage Server permission on your own account to add any application — that is Discord's rule for every bot, not ours (see the Discord developer documentation for how app installs work).
2. Confirm the permissions on the consent screen: View Channels, Send Messages, Send Messages in Threads, Embed Links, Manage Webhooks and slash commands. Manage Webhooks is the one worth knowing about — it is what lets the bot make its own webhook in the channel, so you never have to build one.
3. Go to the channel where the alerts should land and type /add. Paste the X handle and follow the prompts.
4. Wait for the account to post. The alert lands in that channel — the tweet text, the author, and a link back to the original post.
5. Repeat /add in a different channel for a different account. Channels are independent.

There is no dashboard to log into and no configuration file — everything is a slash command inside Discord, and the commands appear as soon as the bot joins.

What is free and what is paid?

When the bot first joins a server it opens a one-time 3-day free trial with 30 accounts and no card — one per Discord account. After the trial it is a paid plan, the same as on Telegram; trackers are never deleted, they pause until you subscribe.

What a paid plan buys is capacity: how many accounts you can watch at once. Every feature ships in every paid plan.

Can I send different accounts to different channels?

Yes — a tracker belongs to the channel where you ran /add, so one server can hold several unrelated feeds without them mixing into one noisy room. The account limit of your plan is shared across the whole server, not counted per channel.

Do I need a webhook or an X API key?

Neither. You never open the X/Twitter developer portal: there is no developer application to submit, no API key to paste and no API bill attached to your server. X-Relay reads X on its own side and hands the result to Discord.

You also do not need to create a Discord webhook by hand. Leave the webhook field empty and the bot makes one for itself in the channel where you ran the command — that is what its Manage Webhooks permission is for — so setup ends at the slash command. Building one yourself is still a legitimate route — Discord documents the endpoint in its webhook resource reference, and our guide to posting tweets into a Discord channel automatically walks through that version. It is an alternative, not a prerequisite.

What permissions does the bot need?

Six things, and the invite link asks for exactly those: View Channels, Send Messages, Send Messages in Threads and Embed Links so an alert can reach the channel and render as an embed; Manage Webhooks so the bot can create its own webhook in the channel instead of asking you for one; and applications.commands so the slash commands appear.

Nothing beyond that: no Administrator, no moderation powers, no role management, no member list, no message history. If a channel is private, the bot still has to be able to see and post in it — otherwise the tracker looks configured but stays silent.

What can it alert on besides tweets?

Plain posts are the starting point. The same bot also delivers:

• Replies and quote tweets — with the parent tweet shown inside the alert, so the message is readable without opening X to find out what it was answering.
• Contract addresses — Solana, EVM chains and TON, pulled out of the post and enriched with DexScreener market data, with buy buttons attached to the alert.
• Auto-translation — foreign-language posts arrive already translated, which matters for servers reading Chinese, Korean or Japanese accounts.
• X Lists — hand the bot one list link and it follows what the list contains, instead of adding members one by one.
• Profile changes — display name, bio, avatar and banner edits, the usual tell before a project rebrands or a handle changes hands.
• Follows and unfollows — who a tracked account started or stopped following.
• Spaces — when a tracked account goes live.
• Keyword search — search X for a phrase rather than an account, with a surge detector for when a term suddenly starts appearing.
• Bio Watch — find brand-new accounts by a word in their bio, before they have posted anything worth following.

What does it cost after the trial?

Every feature listed above is included in every paid plan — there is no tier where keyword search costs extra. Payment is in crypto only: no card on file, and nothing renews behind your back.

One optional add-on exists: Turbo, at $9, $19, $29 or $39 depending on the plan. It raises how often tracked accounts are re-checked — we re-check a tracked account as often as every 300 ms. Full breakdown on the pricing page.

How does it compare with the other Discord Twitter bots?

The side-by-side against TweetShift, Readybot, Tweetcord and the rest lives on one page: our Discord tracker comparison. This page is about setting X-Relay up; that one is about whether to choose it.
