About this tool
Preview how a link will look as an X (Twitter) card and check the meta tags against the card spec for title, description and image limits.
Twitter Card Preview shows how a link will appear as an X (Twitter) card and checks the underlying meta tags against X's Cards markup reference. It applies the documented limits — twitter:card must be summary, summary_large_image, app or player; titles are cut at 70 characters and descriptions at 200; card images must be under 5 MB and no larger than 4096 px on a side. It is for developers, SEO specialists and marketers who want to see the card before a post goes out.

Title, description, image dimension and file-size checks follow X's published card requirements.
When a twitter: tag is missing the tool reports which og: tag X will use instead.
One button copies a complete twitter: plus og: meta block with the values properly escaped.
70 characters for the title and 200 for the description — X truncates anything longer with an ellipsis. Aim for around 55-60 characters of title so the card reads cleanly on a narrow phone, where fewer characters are shown before wrapping.
For summary_large_image, use a 2:1 image at least 300 × 157 px — 1200 × 600 px is the common choice — and keep it under 5 MB. The small summary card crops to a square and needs at least 144 × 144 px. Neither card accepts an image larger than 4096 px on a side.
The usual causes are a missing or misspelled twitter:card tag, an image URL that is relative or served over plain HTTP rather than HTTPS, an unsupported format, or an image over the 5 MB limit. This tool flags each of those as a blocking issue rather than a warning.
Yes, keep both. X falls back to og:title, og:description and og:image when the matching twitter: tag is missing, and other platforms such as LinkedIn, WhatsApp and Slack read Open Graph only. The copy button here outputs both sets together.
