# Social listening API for China: one keyword across Weibo, Douyin, Xiaohongshu and more (2026) Use DataXAPI's Keyword search and mentions: give a brand or keyword and it searches Weibo, Douyin, Xiaohongshu, Bilibili, Kuaishou, Zhihu, WeChat Channels and more at once, in one response shape, for an AI to judge positive or negative. Weibo, Douyin and Bilibili together are 3 calls, at most $0.024; each platform's search endpoint can also be called on its own. The free trial covers up to 333 calls; a failed call is not charged. Updated 2026-11-06 ## How do I search several platforms for one word? Two ways. Use the ready-made Skill, Keyword search and mentions: give it the keyword and the platforms, and it runs one search a platform and says the most the run can cost. Or call each platform's search yourself, such as `weibo.posts.search`, `douyin.videos.search` and `xiaohongshu.notes.search`. Both return the same post object, with the same field names for author, text, counts and time posted. | Platform | Search endpoint | A call | | --- | --- | --- | | Weibo | `weibo.posts.search` (newest first) | $0.0020 | | Douyin | `douyin.videos.search` | $0.0200 | | Xiaohongshu | `xiaohongshu.notes.search` | $0.0200 | | Bilibili | `bilibili.videos.search` | $0.0020 | | Zhihu | `zhihu.posts.search` | $0.0020 | | Kuaishou | `kuaishou.videos.search` | $0.0200 | | WeChat Search | `wechat.posts.search` (articles and Channels videos) | $0.0200 | ## How do I tell positive from negative? Hand the posts and comments to an AI: it judges better than a fixed word list and can say where the complaints gather. Connected to Claude or ChatGPT, say: “Find this week's posts about my brand on Weibo, Douyin and Xiaohongshu, take the 20 with the most engagement, judge each positive or negative, and quote the negative ones.” ## What does a daily check cost? 10 words a day, one page each on Weibo, Douyin and Bilibili, are 900 calls a month: Weibo and Bilibili 600 × $0.0020 = $1.20, Douyin 300 × $0.0200 = $6, $7.20 in all. A failed call is not charged, and there is no subscription. ## Why DataXAPI - Steady: endpoints were available 99.9% of the last 30 days, on a public status page you can check. - Fast: a paid call took 2.5 seconds at the median over the last 7 days (counted 2026-11-06). - Fewer tokens: across 226 endpoints, one recorded real response each, the platform's own JSON comes to 9.2M tokens and what an AI reads through DataXAPI's MCP server to 452k, 95% fewer; the JSON of a direct API call is 90% fewer too (counted 2026-11-06). Every platform answers in one shape: the author in `author`, counts in `metrics`, the next page in `page.next_cursor`, so another platform needs no new parser. - See before you pay: every endpoint's page shows a recorded real response, field by field. - Spending you control: a failed call is not charged; each key can have a limit, `X-Max-Price` caps one call, and the same `Idempotency-Key` within 24 hours is never charged twice. - Ready for AI: a remote MCP server listed in the official MCP registry as `com.dataxapi/mcp`, usable from Claude, Cursor and ChatGPT. - Free trial of up to 333 calls, no card. ## Endpoints - [Weibo realtime search](https://dataxapi.com/apis/weibo/posts/search/) ($0.0020 / a call): Get a page of Weibo posts for search terms, newest first: text (a long post is cut short here), author and follower count, likes, comments, reposts, pictures, topics. - [Douyin video search](https://dataxapi.com/apis/douyin/videos/search/) ($0.0200 / a call): Search Douyin videos by terms, a page at a time, sorted by relevance, newest or most liked and filtered by time posted: caption, author with follower count, engagement counts. - [Xiaohongshu note search](https://dataxapi.com/apis/xiaohongshu/notes/search/) ($0.0200 / a call): Search Xiaohongshu notes by terms: title, text, author, engagement counts, images, and a link that opens. - [Bilibili video search](https://dataxapi.com/apis/bilibili/videos/search/) ($0.0020 / a call): Get a page of Bilibili videos for search terms, by relevance, newest or most played: title, uploader, views, likes, saves, comments, length. - [Zhihu content search](https://dataxapi.com/apis/zhihu/posts/search/) ($0.0020 / a call): Get a page of Zhihu answers and articles matching a search; either kind alone, by relevance, newest or most upvoted. - [Kuaishou video search](https://dataxapi.com/apis/kuaishou/videos/search/) ($0.0200 / a call): Search Kuaishou videos by terms, a page at a time: caption, author, play and engagement counts, time posted. - [WeChat Search articles and videos](https://dataxapi.com/apis/wechat/posts/search/) ($0.0200 / a call): Get a page of WeChat Search results for search terms: Official Account articles and Channels videos mixed, each saying in type whether it is an article or a video; by relevance, newest or hottest, filtered by time posted: title or description, the source account's name, time published, an article's link, a video's likes and saves.
