- mattzito 11y agoOkay, here we go: - Twitter Firehose - full stream of all Tweets, commercial - Twitter Decahose - 10% sample of Tweets for analysis, commercial - Twitter Powertrack - real-time streaming of posts based on query (country, language, keyword, etc.), commercial - Twitter Full-archive API - search interface for entire corpus of Tweets, commercial - Twitter Streaming API - a mini-powertrack of posts based on basic keyword searches (up to 400 keywords), free - Twitter Streaming Sample - a small sampling of Tweets for statistical analysis, free There's a couple more esoteric product offerings from a data perspective, but these are the relevant ones. I think it's a pretty broad breadth of different options, with different functionality at the free and commercial options.
