Tweet to Image Converter

Paste the link to any public tweet and get back an image of it — the actual author, the actual text, the actual date — ready to drop into a slide deck, a blog post, or a screenshot that won't go stale if the original tweet is later deleted or edited.

This looks up the real tweet through X's own public embed service, so it's not a mockup: the name, handle and text always match what's actually posted. If you want a fully fake or hypothetical tweet instead — any name, any text, any engagement numbers — use Fake Tweet Generator.

How to use it

1. Paste the tweet's URL — either a twitter.com or x.com link works.
2. Optionally upload an avatar image. X's public embed data doesn't include the poster's real profile picture, so a neutral placeholder is drawn unless you add one yourself.
3. Pick a background: light, dim or dark.
4. Press Convert. Copy or download the resulting image as SVG.

Why no like/retweet/reply counts?

X's public embed service — the same one that powers "Embed Tweet" buttons across the web — doesn't expose engagement numbers or the poster's real avatar without a signed-in, paid API. Rather than invent plausible-looking numbers (which would make an image claiming to be a REAL tweet quietly false), this tool only renders what it can verify: the author, the text, and the date.

Does this work for private accounts or deleted tweets?

No — only public tweets are visible to the embed lookup. A deleted tweet, a protected account, or a mistyped link all fail the same way: "Couldn't find that tweet."

Is the tweet URL sent anywhere?

Yes — it's sent to X's own public oEmbed endpoint to look up the tweet's content, which is what makes the image real rather than a mockup. No account, sign-in or API key is involved on either end.

What costs credits?

One credit per lookup — the Convert button shows the exact price before you run it. Credits reset daily, and a run that fails (tweet not found, network error) costs nothing.
