## Source-backed TweetDeck/X Pro scope

X's official X Pro help describes X Pro as the global replacement for TweetDeck, with a multi-column workspace that includes more of X.com. The page lists a full post composer, scheduled posts, advanced search, top or latest post order, Decks, a column creator with Search X, video docking, and account switching.

The official X Pro usage guide describes X Pro as a browser workspace for viewing multiple timelines in one interface. It covers connecting multiple X accounts, creating posts with media, and adding or reordering columns. Column types include home, notifications, search, lists, communities, explore, bookmarks, profiles, messages, and scheduled posts.

The official X Premium help page describes X Premium as an optional paid subscription with Basic, Premium, and Premium+ tiers. It says Premium features can change, new subscriptions require a verified phone number, and X shows regional price information on web and in-app.

The official X Pro FAQ says X Pro lets teams delegate account access without sharing sign-in credentials. It also says X Pro does not support scheduled Direct Messages.

## What to verify in a trial

<Steps>
  <Step title="Run one live-monitoring job">
    Use a real task: monitor a brand account, search a keyword, export followers, upload media, send a DM, post a tweet, or deliver a webhook. Compare outputs, not feature labels.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Inspect the output">
    Compare columns, saved searches, tweet IDs, author IDs, timestamps, post results, export formats, webhook payloads, and the handoff to your production system.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Price active monitoring">
    Compare the X Pro subscription requirement with Xquik credits. Active Xquik monitors cost 21 credits per hour while enabled, and webhook plus stored-event delivery is included.
  </Step>
</Steps>

## Migration path

Start with one repeated task. Validate that Xquik can run the data collection, account action, export, or webhook handoff before moving more dashboard work.

Keep the test small: one task, one output, one cost model, and one owner for the output. Switch only when the Xquik output matches the required records and reduces integration work or cost.

X sets X Pro availability and pricing in its subscription terms. X's public Premium docs list X Pro as a Premium+ feature and say features may change. Verify the current tier before your team depends on it.

Price the real workload. On Xquik, Starter is USD 20/month with 140,000 credits. Top-ups are USD 0.00015/credit, webhook and stored-event management are free, and active monitors bill only while enabled.
