X, formerly known as Twitter, is a global social media and microblogging platform originally founded in 2006 by Jack Dorsey, Noah Glass, Biz Stone, and Evan Williams. The platform was acquired by Elon Musk in October 2022 for approximately 44 billion dollars and rebranded from Twitter to X in July 2023 as part of Musk's vision to create an everything app. Headquartered in San Francisco, California, X serves hundreds of millions of users worldwide and remains one of the most influential platforms for real-time public discourse, breaking news, political commentary, and cultural conversation. The platform's core format allows users to post messages (originally called tweets, now referred to as posts) along with images, videos, polls, and links. X has expanded its offerings to include X Premium (formerly Twitter Blue), which provides verification badges, longer posts, edit functionality, and enhanced visibility, as well as X Spaces for live audio conversations and Communities for topic-based groups. The platform has introduced creator monetization through ads revenue sharing, subscriptions, and tipping features. X remains a critical channel for public figures, journalists, politicians, brands, and thought leaders to communicate directly with global audiences. The platform plays a significant role in shaping public opinion, driving news cycles, and facilitating real-time commentary during major events. Under Musk's leadership, X has undergone significant operational changes, including workforce restructuring, policy updates, and the integration of AI features powered by xAI's Grok chatbot.
