TikTok Profile Scraper — Bio Contacts, Videos, Emails & Engagement Analytics API

Scrape any public TikTok profile at scale — full bio, follower/like/video stats, verification and business category, the complete video catalog with views/likes/comments/shares, bio-link contacts (emails, phones, Instagram, YouTube, Telegram, WhatsApp, Snapchat), and ready-made engagement analytics. Pure HTTP, no headless browser. The first 10 videos per profile are free, and profiles start at $4 per 1,000 (from $3 on paid plans). No login, no TikTok API key, no code, no proxy setup — anti-bot handling and residential proxy rotation are built in.

What does this TikTok Scraper do?

TikTok has no free, open official API — the Research API is gated behind an application process (academics/approved orgs only) and the Display API requires per-user OAuth login. This actor works as an unofficial TikTok API: give it a list of usernames or profile URLs and it returns clean, structured JSON with everything a public profile page exposes, plus enrichment you'd normally have to build yourself.

Mode	What you get	Toggle
Profile data	Bio, stats, verification, business category, region, avatars, account age	always on
Video catalog	The creator's own uploads with full engagement stats + music	maxVideosPerProfile
Reposts	The Reposts tab as a separate array	includeReposts
Liked videos	The Liked tab (only when the user made likes public)	includeLikedVideos
Bio contacts	Emails, phones, socials & websites parsed from bio + bio-link	extractContacts
Engagement analytics	Avg/median views, engagement rate, viral ratio, best posting time, top hashtags/sounds	computeAnalytics
Sponsored detection	Flags #ad, #sponsored, paid-partnership markers	detectSponsored

Export the results in JSON, CSV, Excel, XML, or HTML from the Apify dataset.

Why use this TikTok Profile Scraper?

• ✅ Bio contact extraction (9 contact types) — emails (including obfuscated hello [at] brand [dot] com), phone numbers, Instagram, YouTube, Twitter/X, Telegram, WhatsApp, Snapchat handles, and websites. Most TikTok scrapers refuse to touch contacts — this one turns bios into a lead list.
• ✅ Engagement analytics computed in-actor (25+ metrics) — no spreadsheet post-processing. Average/median views, engagement rate by followers and by views, viral ratio, sponsored ratio, original-audio ratio, posting frequency, best posting hour and weekday, top hashtags and sounds.
• ✅ Up to 2,000 videos per profile — paginates the creator's own-videos feed with cursor pagination, and falls back to playlists + embed so it also works for creators without playlists.
• ✅ Three separate tabs, three separate arrays — videos, reposts, and likedVideos are distinct fields with independent on/off toggles and caps.
• ✅ No headless browser — pure HTTP with browser-grade TLS fingerprinting and in-process request signing (no Chromium, Puppeteer, or Playwright). Lighter and cheaper to run than browser-based scrapers.
• ✅ First 10 videos per profile are free — profile-only lead-gen runs are effectively priced at the per-profile rate.
• ✅ Robust by default — automatic proxy-session rotation on block pages, 5 retries with exponential backoff on 403/429/5xx, and isolated proxy sessions per creator.

How to scrape TikTok profiles step by step

1. Create a free Apify account — new accounts get free platform credits every month, enough to test this scraper without paying.
2. Open the TikTok Profile Scraper and go to the Input tab.
3. Add TikTok profiles — usernames (nike, @khaby.lame) or full URLs (https://www.tiktok.com/@mrbeast). A run needs at least 10 profiles.
4. Choose what to collect — set maxVideosPerProfile, toggle reposts/liked/contacts/analytics as needed.
5. Click Start and wait for the run to finish.
6. Export your data — Download the dataset as JSON, CSV, Excel, XML, or HTML, or pull it via the Apify API.

How to get more than 10 videos per profile (and how billing works)

The first 10 videos per profile are free — that count covers videos + reposts + likedVideos combined. To pull more, raise maxVideosPerProfile (up to 2,000). Only videos beyond the first 10 are billed, at $0.0003 each ($0.0002 on paid plans).

The actor paginates the creator's own-videos feed and, if needed, falls back to playlists and the embed endpoint. TikTok's feed typically exposes 100–300 videos per creator; very old back-catalog (2+ years) may not be reachable for every account. Set maxVideosPerProfile=0 for the cheapest possible run — profile metadata, bio contacts, and profile-level analytics only, with no video charges at all.

---

Lead generation from TikTok bios

Set maxVideosPerProfile=0, extractContacts=true, and computeAnalytics=true to turn a list of creators into an outreach-ready lead list at the per-profile rate. The parser reads both the bio text and the bio-link, extracting:

• Emails — standard (hello@brand.com) and obfuscated variants (hello [at] brand [dot] com, hello(at)brand(dot)com)
• Phone numbers — international formats
• Social handles — Instagram, YouTube, Twitter/X, Telegram, WhatsApp, Snapchat
• Websites — any non-social link in the bio

Combine this with the profile-level analytics (followerToFollowingRatio, totalHeartsPerFollower, business category, region) to qualify leads before you reach out.

---

How much does it cost to scrape TikTok profiles?

This actor is pay-per-event — you pay a fixed price per result, not for compute time.

Event	Free tier	Paid plans	When it fires
Profile scraped	$0.004	from $0.003	Once per successfully scraped profile
Video scraped (over 10)	$0.0003	from $0.0002	Per video beyond the first 10 per profile
Actor start	$0.00005	$0.00005	Once per run

The first 10 videos per profile are free (own videos + reposts + liked combined). You're only charged for video overflow when you ask for more than 10.

Worked examples

Scenario	Per profile	Cost for 1,000 profiles
Profile only (maxVideosPerProfile=0)	$0.004	$4.00 ($3.00 on paid plans)
Profile + 30 videos (20 billable)	$0.004 + 20×$0.0003 = $0.010	$10.00
Profile + 100 videos (90 billable)	$0.004 + 90×$0.0003 = $0.031	$31.00

That works out to roughly $0.30 per 1,000 extra videos ($0.20 on paid plans). New Apify accounts get free monthly platform credits — enough to scrape hundreds of profiles before paying anything. All prices are all-inclusive: proxies and platform usage are already covered by the per-event price.

Is it legal to scrape TikTok?

Scraping publicly available data is generally legal, and this actor only ever accesses public profile pages — it never logs in, so it doesn't accept any Terms of Service that require authentication, and it never touches private or password-protected content. Bio contacts (emails, phones, socials) are only the ones creators chose to publish publicly in their own bio.

That said, personal data is regulated. If you collect contact information, you are responsible for complying with applicable laws — including GDPR, CCPA, and anti-spam rules like CAN-SPAM — and for having a legitimate reason to process it. When in doubt, consult a lawyer. See Apify's guide: Is web scraping legal?

FAQ

Does TikTok have a public API I can use instead?

Not a practical one. TikTok's Research API is application-gated (approved academics/orgs), and the Display API requires per-user OAuth login. This actor works as an unofficial TikTok API over public data — no login or key required.

Do I need a TikTok account or login?

No. The scraper only reads public profile pages. No account, cookies, or credentials needed.

Do I need to set up proxies?

No. Residential proxy rotation and anti-bot handling are built in (Apify Residential by default). You can plug in your own residential proxy in proxyConfiguration if you prefer.

How many profiles do I have to scrape at once?

A run requires at least 10 profiles. There's no upper limit — batch thousands in one run and tune maxConcurrency (up to 20) for speed.

How many videos can I get per profile?

Up to 2,000 via maxVideosPerProfile. In practice TikTok's feed exposes 100–300 videos for most creators; the actor paginates the creator feed and falls back to playlists + embed.

Can I extract emails and contact info from TikTok bios?

Yes — set extractContacts=true. The parser handles standard emails (hello@brand.com), obfuscated variants (hello [at] brand [dot] com), phone numbers, and Instagram/YouTube/Twitter/Telegram/WhatsApp/Snapchat handles and websites. Results land in contacts.

Can I compute engagement rate without fetching videos?

Yes — set maxVideosPerProfile=0 and computeAnalytics=true. You get profile-level ratios (avgLikesPerVideo, totalHeartsPerFollower, followerToFollowingRatio) at the per-profile price with no video charges.

Will I be charged for the first videos?

No. The first 10 videos per profile are free (own + reposts + liked combined). You only pay for videos beyond 10.

Will I be charged for profiles that don't exist or return nothing?

Failed inputs (404, no data) are logged but not pushed to the dataset and don't trigger the profile-scraped charge. You pay only for profiles that scrape successfully.

Can I scrape private accounts?

TikTok blocks all video endpoints for private profiles. The actor still returns public metadata (nickname, verification, counts) and marks the run successful, but videos[] will be empty.

What are the videos, reposts, and likedVideos arrays?

Three separate TikTok tabs, three separate arrays: videos = own uploads, reposts = reposted content (includeReposts=true), likedVideos = liked videos when the user made likes public (includeLikedVideos=true). Each is null when its feature is off — so you can tell "disabled" from "empty".

Why did I get fewer videos than I asked for?

The creator may simply have fewer public videos, or their older back-catalog isn't reachable via the feed. Private accounts return zero videos by design.

Does it launch a browser?

No. Pure HTTP with browser-grade TLS fingerprinting; TikTok API requests are signed in-process. No Chromium, Puppeteer, or Playwright.

Which languages and regions are supported?

All of them. Bios and captions preserve Unicode (emoji, Cyrillic, CJK, Arabic, etc.), and contact extraction works across scripts.

What export formats are available?

JSON, CSV, Excel, XML, and HTML — from the dataset UI or the Apify API.

Can I run this on a schedule?

Yes. Use Apify Schedules for daily/weekly monitoring of creators or competitors.

Why am I seeing 403 or 429 errors?

Usually proxy quality. The actor auto-retries 5× with backoff and rotates to a fresh residential session on block pages; switching to Apify Residential or a cleaner pool resolves most cases.
