TikTok Comments Scraper - Profiles & Date Range

Collect the comments of public TikTok videos. Or give it a profile and get the comments from its latest videos, optionally only from videos newer than a date. Every comment shows its likes, its reply count and whether the creator liked it, ready for audience research, campaign tracking, moderation or AI datasets.

• Paste video links, or just usernames, and get clean, flat JSON, CSV or Excel
• Profile mode: comments from each profile's latest 1-50 videos, with an optional date filter
• Up to 1,000 videos and 200 profiles per run. Live collection per run is capped at about 90 profiles at default settings (fewer with more comments or videos, and high comment limits also lower how many new videos fit in one run); inputs over the cap get previously collected comments when we have them, otherwise they are marked limited, are not charged, and can go in another run
• No TikTok login, no cookies and no proxies to manage

Every row is a top-level comment: replyCount shows how many replies it has, but the replies themselves are not collected. url is always null because TikTok comments have no link of their own; postUrl links to the video. Commenter profile photos are not included.

How to use it

1. Add video URLs in the form tiktok.com/@user/video/… (photo posts work too), add usernames or profile links under Profiles, or both.
2. Set Max comments per video. Up to 24 is the fastest. For profiles, also set Videos per profile and, if you like, Only videos newer than (for example 7 days or 2026-09-01).
3. Run it. Comments we collected recently arrive instantly. New videos and profiles usually take 40-90 seconds each (large profiles take longer), and up to 3 are processed in parallel.

Calling it from an AI agent or with a short timeout? Start the run asynchronously and fetch the dataset when it finishes, or turn on Previously collected data only for an instant answer (video URLs only; profiles need live collection).

Pricing

Pay only for what you get:

	Free	Starter	Scale	Business
Per 1,000 comments	$0.95	$0.70	$0.55	$0.40
Per video processed	$0.005	$0.005	$0.005	$0.005
Per profile processed	$0.025	$0.025	$0.025	$0.025

For video URLs, the per-video fee is charged once for every video we collect successfully, even when it has no comments. A profile costs the profile fee plus the per-video fee for each of its videos that returned comments (at most Videos per profile). Videos and profiles that cannot be collected, such as private ones, are not charged.

Example: 5,000 comments from 100 videos on the Starter plan cost 5,000 × $0.0007 + 100 × $0.005 = $4.00. Comments from the latest 5 videos of 10 profiles (1,200 comments) cost 1,200 × $0.0007 + 10 × $0.025 + 50 × $0.005 = $1.34.

Use Maximum cost per run in the run options to cap your spend. The Actor stops cleanly at that limit.

Free plan: you get previously collected comments plus a small live allowance each day for video URLs; any paid Apify plan removes that limit and also unlocks profile mode.

FAQ

Is scraping TikTok comments legal?

This Actor collects publicly visible comments only. Personal data is protected by laws such as GDPR, so only collect what you have a legitimate reason to process, and consult your lawyer if unsure.

How fresh is the data?

You get comments collected within the number of hours in Reuse data collected within, or a fresh collection. The input form starts at 24 hours, API calls that leave it out use 6 hours, and higher values reuse older collected data (up to 720 hours). Lower it for fresher data, or set it to 0 to always collect live.

Can I use it via API, Make, Zapier or n8n?

Yes. Use the Apify API or any Apify integration. Each run's results are in its default dataset, and OUTPUT in the key-value store has a summary per video and profile.

Why was my vm.tiktok.com link skipped?

Short links do not contain the creator's username, which is needed to find the video. Open the link in your browser and paste the full address (tiktok.com/@user/video/…) instead.

Does the date filter work for video URLs?

No. Only videos newer than applies to profiles, where it limits which of the latest videos are read. A video URL always returns that video's comments.

Can I use it from an AI agent or MCP server?

Yes. Connect your agent to the Apify MCP server at mcp.apify.com, or call the Apify API. New videos and profiles take a while, so start long runs asynchronously and fetch the dataset when the run finishes. For an instant answer on video URLs, turn on Previously collected data only.

Why did I get no results?

Common reasons: the video or profile is private or deleted, no video of a profile is newer than Only videos newer than, you used profile mode on the free plan, the free plan's daily live allowance is used up, or the run reached your Maximum cost per run. The run's OUTPUT record in the key-value store shows the status of every video and profile, with a note explaining any problem, and lists inputs that were rejected with the reason.
