Twitter (now X) cards render your shared URLs as rich previews — either a small square (summary) or a big 1200×675 hero (summary_large_image). This tool generates both variants side by side, with a WYSIWYG preview that matches the current Twitter renderer's typography, spacing, and cropping. The tool also outputs the exact <meta name="twitter:*"> tags you need on your page.

Preview matches Twitter's renderer

The preview panel replicates Twitter's card renderer: 1200×675 canvas, Twitter's title cropping (approximately 70 characters), description truncation, and the card's rounded-corner treatment. What you see is what your followers will see.

Two card types

summary uses a small square thumbnail (400×400) beside title/description — the compact preview. summary_large_image uses a full 1200×675 image above title/description — the modern default. The tool lets you design both from the same source; most sites just use summary_large_image.

Copy the meta tags

Below the preview, the tool outputs the exact meta tags: twitter:card, twitter:title, twitter:description, twitter:image, twitter:site, twitter:creator. Copy the block and paste into your page's <head>.

Tool FAQs

Everything you need to know about using Twitter Card Generator.

Does Twitter use OpenGraph tags as a fallback?+

Yes — if a page has only OpenGraph tags (no twitter:*), Twitter falls back to those. For consistent behavior, ship both. The tool outputs both alongside each other.

How long can the card title be?+

Twitter truncates around 70 characters on desktop, fewer on mobile. The tool shows a live character count; text past the limit gets a red underline.

Why doesn't my card preview update?+

Twitter aggressively caches — use their Card Validator to force a re-scrape after updating your image or meta tags.
