TweetPik Alternative for Twitter Screenshot API

TweetPik is shutting down. Discover Orshot's Twitter Screenshot API - a powerful alternative with better customization, integrations and free plan

So TweetPik is shutting down and if you're their user, you might already know about it. If you've been using their API to generate Twitter screenshots, you're probably scrambling to find a replacement

Good news — Orshot's Twitter Screenshot API is not just an alternative, it's actually better

What Made TweetPik Popular

TweetPik was great for taking clean Twitter screenshots with their API. Simple REST calls, decent customization, and Zapier integration. But they're done maintaining it and pointing people to TweetHunter instead

Why Orshot is Better

While TweetPik gave you basic styling, Orshot lets you customize everything:

  • Font sizes and colors
  • Background colors or images
  • Hide/show metrics, verified icons, quoted tweets, media
  • Custom padding and image dimensions
  • Shadow effects

Better Integration Support

Orshot works with way more platforms:

  • Zapier (like TweetPik)
  • n8n for advanced workflows
  • Pipedream for serverless automation
  • Airtable for database triggers
  • MCP Server for AI workflows
  • Direct API with SDKs for Node, Python, Ruby, PHP

Multiple Output Formats

  • Supports multiple formats: PNG, JPG, WEBP, PDF
  • Supports different types: URL, Binary, base64

Simple API Migration
