TikTok Username Search & Enumeration

What does TikTok Username Search & Enumeration do?

Range enumeration for TikTok — not a single-username checker. Enter a base keyword (for example bitcoin) and a suffix range (1 to 200, a to z), and this Actor expands every candidate in one run: bitcoin1, bitcoin2, … bitcoin200.

That is the workflow brand protection, security, and OSINT teams need for lookalike discovery and suffix sweeps — coverage a list-based checker cannot give you without building the list yourself.

Built for teams that need wide range coverage at speed. Pay only for valid accounts found; empty checks are not billed.

Range enumeration, not username checking

Most Store Actors check one username at a time or a list you supply. This Actor generates and scans the full suffix range from a single base keyword — numeric (1–1000), alphabetic (a–z, aa–zz), or custom start/end.

Use it when you need to answer: "Which bitcoin* TikTok accounts exist in this suffix range?" — not "Does @bitcoin42 exist?"

What you get for each valid account

For every existing account found, the Dataset includes:

• Username and direct TikTok URL
• Account name (display nickname)
• Bio (signature text when present)
• Followers, following, likes, and video counts
• Verified and private account flags
• Avatar URL
• Stable account IDs (userId, secUid)

Why this pricing is different

Most username tools bill per check: every candidate in your list or range costs money, whether the account exists or not. Scan 1,000 lookalikes and you pay for 1,000 attempts — even when almost all are empty.

We bill per valid account. Empty candidates are not charged by the custom result event. Your budget buys signal (real accounts with metadata), not noise.

That matters most on brand and lookalike sweeps, where hit rates are often low. Large ranges stay affordable because unused names do not drain spend. Set a maximum cost per run anytime you want a hard cap.

Illustrative costs for a 1,000-candidate run (example rates — check the Pricing tab for live numbers):

Hit rate	Valids found	Typical per-check tool (~$0.015–$0.02 / check)	This Actor (pay per valid, example ~$0.007 / valid)
Sparse (~2%)	20	~$15–$20	~$0.14
Moderate (~14%)	140	~$15–$20	~$0.98
Dense (~40%)	400	~$15–$20	~$2.80

Per-check pricing stays roughly flat no matter how few accounts exist. Pay-per-valid scales with finds — so sparse brand protection work costs less here, and you never pay just to learn a name is unused.

Features

• Start-only numeric mode - enter 200 to check suffixes 1 through 200
• Explicit ranges - numeric (100 to 300) or alphabetic (a to z, aa to zz)
• Fast concurrent checks - adjustable parallelism, retries, and delay
• Pay only for valid accounts - empty checks are not billed by the custom result event
• Only new results - skip accounts you already collected on earlier runs
• Optional Apify Proxy - useful for larger runs and regional consistency
• No TikTok login required

How to run

1. Enter a Base username prefix without @.
2. For 1 through N, enter N in Range start or numeric maximum and leave Range end empty.
3. For an explicit range, enter both start and end.
4. Optionally configure concurrency, retries, delay, and Apify Proxy.
5. Start the Actor and open the Dataset when the run finishes.

Examples

Scan bitcoin1 through bitcoin200:

{
  "base": "bitcoin",
  "start": "200"
}

Scan bitcoin100 through bitcoin300:

{
  "base": "bitcoin",
  "start": "100",
  "end": "300"
}

Scan bitcoina through bitcoinz:

{
  "base": "bitcoin",
  "start": "a",
  "end": "z"
}

How much will it cost?

Pay per valid account found — same model as our Telegram Username Search & Enumeration Actor. Platform usage is included.

• Valid accounts = billed
• Empty / non-existent candidates = not billed (when includeMisses is off, the default)

Check the Pricing tab for current rates. Before a large job, set a maximum cost per run so spend never surprises you.

Apify also gives monthly free usage credits on the Free plan. A short test run is the fastest way to see real cost for your range.
