TweetCatcher has been a go-to Twitter/X monitoring service for crypto traders and bot developers, offering real-time tweet alerts via Discord, Telegram, and WebSocket. But with TweetCatcher's X account recently suspended and growing uncertainty about service continuity, many users are looking for a reliable alternative. Xanguard delivers everything TweetCatcher offered — and nine products worth of features it never did — starting at $49/month.

Why Switch to Xanguard
1. TweetCatcher-Compatible WebSocket — Minimal Migration
Xanguard's B2B Realtime WebSocket API uses the same opcode protocol as TweetCatcher: HELLO, LOGIN, READY, EVENT, and HEARTBEAT. If your bot already consumes TweetCatcher's WebSocket feed, switching to Xanguard is nearly a drop-in replacement. Update your WebSocket URL, swap your API key, and your existing event-handling logic works as-is.
2. Nine Products, Not One
TweetCatcher bundled tweet alerts with follow detection and profile updates into a single product. Xanguard offers nine distinct real-time products — each purpose-built and independently subscribable:
- Tweet Alerts — sub-second tweet notifications via Telegram
- Community Watch — Twitter/X community membership tracking
- Convergence Tracker — multi-account community clustering
- B2B Realtime API — tweets, follows, profiles, communities via WebSocket
- Trending Alerts — trending topic monitoring
- Engagement Tracker — real-time engagement signals
- PF Livestream — pump.fun launch monitoring
- Search Alerts — keyword monitoring across Twitter/X
- Pump Scanner — launches matching community events
The Community Edge
Xanguard is the only monitoring service that tracks Twitter/X community activity. When a developer creates or joins a community before a token launch, Xanguard detects it in 3-5 seconds. TweetCatcher never offered this — and neither does any other competitor.
3. More Handles, Lower Price
TweetCatcher capped at 200 handles for EUR 300/month. Xanguard scales to 1,000 handles (Enterprise $2,849/month). For smaller needs, Xanguard's $49/month Starter plan covers 50 handles (tweets + deleted-tweet) — cheaper than TweetCatcher's entry-level EUR 70/month for 30 handles, and at 250 handles Xanguard's $229/month Starter still undercuts TweetCatcher's EUR 300/month 200-handle ceiling.
4. Reliable Infrastructure
With TweetCatcher's X account suspended, users face uncertainty about service continuity and support. Xanguard runs on dedicated infrastructure with proprietary detection methods, redundant data sources, and active development. The service has maintained consistent uptime through multiple Twitter/X API changes.
Where TweetCatcher Had the Edge
OCR / Image Text Extraction
TweetCatcher offered OCR to extract text from tweet images — useful for detecting contract addresses posted as screenshots. Xanguard does not currently offer OCR but has it on the roadmap. If image-based contract detection is critical, this is a gap to be aware of.
Discord Delivery
TweetCatcher supported Discord webhook delivery natively. Xanguard delivers via Telegram, WebSocket, webhooks, and REST — but not directly to Discord. You can bridge Xanguard webhooks to Discord with a lightweight proxy.
Pricing Comparison
Xanguard B2B pricing is tiered by handle count, with three module tiers per tier: Starter (tweets + deleted-tweet), Pro (adds profile + new-follower), and Enterprise (adds follow/unfollow). For reference, TweetCatcher charged EUR 70/mo (30 handles), EUR 150/mo (100 handles), and EUR 300/mo (200 handles), with no tier above 200 handles.
| Handles | Starter | Pro | Enterprise |
|---|---|---|---|
| 50 handles | $49/mo | $99/mo | $249/mo |
| 250 handles | $229/mo | $429/mo | $979/mo |
| 500 handles | $449/mo | $749/mo | $1,649/mo |
| 1,000 handles | $849/mo | $1,349/mo | $2,849/mo |
The $49/mo Starter entry covers tweets and deleted-tweet detection; Pro adds profile and new-follower monitoring, and Enterprise adds follow/unfollow. Pay with SOL on-chain — no credit card required.
