## What it is
Scweet is a Python library and CLI for scraping tweets, profile timelines, followers, following lists, and user profiles from Twitter/X without the official API. It supports multi-account pooling, proxy rotation, and async operation locally, and is also available as a hosted Apify Actor requiring no cookies or setup.

## Use cases
- scrape tweets by keyword or hashtag from twitter
- download a user's full tweet history
- get followers and following lists of an account
- collect twitter data without paying for the official API
- build academic datasets from twitter search results
- monitor brand mentions on twitter/x
- osint research on twitter accounts

## When to choose
- you need Twitter/X data without official API access or keys
- you want a Python library plus CLI with proxy and multi-account support
- you want a zero-setup hosted option via Apify
