TikTok Viral Videos & Explore Scraper
Get the viral TikTok videos the Explore page is pushing right now, in any country and any of its 21 categories: plays, likes, comments, shares, saves, engagement rate, plays per hour since posting, hashtags, sound, language and the creator with followers and the email from their bio. TikTok shows every country its own Explore feed, so the Actor loads each country through a residential IP in that country: Brazil gets Brazilian videos in Portuguese, Japan gets Japanese ones, Kenya gets Kenyan ones.
{ "countries": ["US", "BR"], "categories": ["All", "Food"] }
No TikTok login, no cookies, no browser. Use it as a TikTok viral videos finder or a TikTok Explore API: filter to videos posted in the last few days with a minimum number of plays, and schedule it with Only new videos to get every new viral video in your niche.

How it works
- Add countries as two-letter codes (US, GB, DE, BR, IN, NG, KE...): any country works
- Choose categories: All (the main feed) or any of Singing & Dancing, Comedy, Sports, Anime & Comics, Relationship, Shows, Lipsync, Daily Life, Beauty Care, Games, Society, Outfit, Cars, Food, Animals, Family, Drama, Fitness & Health, Education, Technology
- Optional: Posted within (days) and Minimum plays to keep only fresh or big videos, Only new videos for scheduled runs
- Run, then download the dataset as CSV, Excel, JSON or HTML. Three tabs: Explore videos, Engagement, hashtags, sound and Creators
Why this Actor
| ๐ Creator contacts | Find creators to work with: the viral videos of a niche and country, and how to reach their authors: email, website, Telegram, Instagram, YouTube in one table |
| ๐ Any country, really local | Each country's feed is loaded through a residential IP in that country. A cloud IP gets an empty Explore feed, and a single IP gets one country's feed for every "country" setting |
| ๐งญ All 21 categories | The same categories as the Explore page, a video found in several of them is returned once |
| ๐ Plays per hour | Spot what is spreading now, not only what is big: a 2-day-old video with 50,000 plays per hour beats a 2-month-old one with more plays |
| ๐ Viral filters | Posted within N days, minimum plays. Videos that do not pass are free |
| ๐ค Creators with emails | Followers, total likes, bio and the email in it: ready for influencer outreach |
| ๐ New-video alerts | isNew on every row; Only new videos returns just the videos that appeared since the previous run |
| ๐ฐ $0.99 per 1,000 videos | No subscription, no paid start |
Get new viral videos every day
- Choose the countries and categories, set Posted within to 3 days and turn on Only new videos
- Save as a task and add a schedule, e.g. every morning
- The first run returns the feed as a baseline. Every later run returns only videos not seen before: send them to Google Sheets, Slack or email with an integration
The memory is kept in your account (key-value store tiktok-explore-state). Use a different Monitor name for each task.
Creator contacts (leads)
Turn on Creator contacts (leads) (input section Leads) and every row gets the contacts of its account in the Leads tab of the results, plus a table of the creators of the viral videos, one row per account (contacts are not repeated on every row): exact followers, bio, business category, email, website, Telegram, Instagram, YouTube, X, Facebook, LinkedIn, WhatsApp, Twitch. The Actor opens each TikTok profile and the website or link-in-bio page (Linktree, Taplink, Beacons, Stan...) linked in it, with its contact page, and reads handles like TG: @name in the bio. The one-row-per-account table is in the run's Output tab โ Authors (CSV) (also AUTHORS as JSON). Each account is looked up once per run. Real example, October 2026 (Explore US, Beauty Care, 60 videos: 53 creators, 39 with contacts, 19 with an email):
| username | followerCount | emailSource | website | ||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| lavdysheva | 1,375,464 | lavdyshevaa@gmail.com | bio | instagram.com/lavdyshevaa | |
| laurasiburian | 3,876,468 | instagram.com/laurasiburiann | |||
| ibrahiiim.11 | 7,233,312 | dkhoonemirates.com | instagram.com/dkhoni__official |
Max accounts for contacts (default 500) takes the most frequent accounts first; 0 = all. Accounts without any contact are listed for free.

FAQ
What is the Explore feed? The Explore page of TikTok on the web (tiktok.com/explore): a feed of popular videos chosen by TikTok for the visitor's country, with category tabs. A logged-out visitor sees it the same way the Actor does, so the feed is not personalized to anybody's watch history.
Are these the newest videos? No, these are the videos TikTok promotes: most are a few days to a few weeks old, with hundreds of thousands to hundreds of millions of plays. Use Posted within (days) for the fresh ones and sort by playsPerHour.
How many videos can I get? Up to 2,000 per category and country. Every load of the feed gives up to 30 videos and the next load gives others: a test run asked for 1,000 US Comedy videos and got 987 different ones. The Actor stops early if the feed starts repeating itself.
Why are numbers like 1,200,000 round? TikTok shows plays, likes, comments and shares from 10,000 rounded, on its site and in its own data. Saves are exact.
Is this the For You page? The For You feed is personal and needs a logged-in account. Explore is the public, country-level version of it.
Do I need a TikTok account or cookies? No.
