## What's an Apify Actor?

Actors are a software tools running on the Apify platform, for all kinds of web data extraction and automation use cases.
In Batch mode, an Actor accepts a well-defined JSON input, performs an action which can take anything from a few seconds to a few hours,
and optionally produces a well-defined JSON output, datasets with results, or files in key-value store.
In Standby mode, an Actor provides a web server which can be used as a website, API, or an MCP server.
Actors are written with capital "A".

## How to integrate an Actor?

If asked about integration, you help developers integrate Actors into their projects.
You adapt to their stack and deliver integrations that are safe, well-documented, and production-ready.
The best way to integrate Actors is as follows.

In JavaScript/TypeScript projects, use official [JavaScript/TypeScript client](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/js/docs.md):

```bash
npm install apify-client
```

In Python projects, use official [Python client library](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/python/docs.md):

```bash
pip install apify-client
```

In shell scripts, use [Apify CLI](https://docs.apify.com/cli/docs.md):

````bash
# MacOS / Linux
curl -fsSL https://apify.com/install-cli.sh | bash
# Windows
irm https://apify.com/install-cli.ps1 | iex
```bash

In AI frameworks, you might use the [Apify MCP server](https://docs.apify.com/integrations/mcp.md).

If your project is in a different language, use the [REST API](https://docs.apify.com/api/v2.md).

For usage examples, see the [API](#api) section below.

# README

## TikTok & Instagram Creator Stats - Engagement Rate & Grade

Check any creator's real engagement in seconds — followers, engagement rate, average likes, posting cadence, and a simple A–D engagement grade — for TikTok and Instagram profiles in bulk. No login or cookies required.

### What you get

- **Profile stats**: followers, following, post count, verification status, bio, and avatar
- **Engagement rate** — computed from the creator's actual performance, benchmarked against their audience size
- **Engagement grade (A–D)** — instantly compare creators of any size on a level playing field
- **Average likes and comments** per post (Instagram: sampled from recent posts; TikTok: lifetime average)
- **Posting cadence**: posts per week and date of the most recent post (Instagram)
- **Follower ratio** (followers ÷ following) — a quick bot/spam signal
- Analyze up to 100 mixed TikTok + Instagram profiles per run
- Export to JSON, CSV, or Google Sheets directly from the Apify console

### Use cases

- **Influencer vetting** — verify a creator's engagement is real before paying for a collaboration
- **Campaign shortlisting** — batch-compare hundreds of candidate creators and rank by grade
- **Competitor analysis** — track how competing brands' accounts actually perform
- **Agency reporting** — refresh client and prospect stats on a schedule
- **Lead scoring** — enrich creator lists with follower counts and engagement quality

### How to use

1. Paste profiles into **Profiles** — full URLs (`https://www.tiktok.com/@user`, `https://www.instagram.com/user`) or `tiktok:username` / `instagram:username`, mixed freely
2. (Optional) Adjust **Instagram sample size** — how many recent posts to average (default 12)
3. Run the actor — one record per profile appears in the **Dataset** tab

### Output format

Each dataset record:

```json
{
  "platform": "tiktok",
  "username": "creator",
  "profileUrl": "https://www.tiktok.com/@creator",
  "fullName": "Creator Name",
  "verified": true,
  "followers": 394100,
  "following": 93,
  "postsCount": 252,
  "totalLikes": 13900000,
  "engagementRatePct": 14.0,
  "engagementBasis": "lifetime_average",
  "avgLikes": 55158,
  "avgComments": null,
  "postsPerWeek": null,
  "followerRatio": 4237.6,
  "grade": "A",
  "gradeLabel": "Excellent engagement"
}
````

Instagram records also include `avgComments`, `postsPerWeek`, and `lastPostAt`, with the engagement rate computed from a sample of recent posts (`engagementBasis: "recent_posts_sample"`).

### How the grade works

The engagement rate is benchmarked against the creator's follower band — a 5,000-follower account is expected to have a much higher rate than a 5M-follower account. Rates above the band's "excellent" threshold earn an **A**, down to **D** for rates well below the norm for that audience size.

### Notes

- Private Instagram profiles return profile stats only (no engagement metrics).
- One result = one analyzed profile. Invalid entries are skipped and not charged.

# Actor input Schema

## `profiles` (type: `array`):

Creator profiles to analyze — mix TikTok and Instagram freely. Accepts full profile URLs (https://www.tiktok.com/@user, https://www.instagram.com/user) or 'tiktok:username' / 'instagram:username'. Maximum 100 per run.

## `igSampleSize` (type: `integer`):

How many recent Instagram posts to sample when computing the engagement rate (1–36). More posts = more accurate but slower.

## Actor input object example

```json
{
  "profiles": [
    "https://www.tiktok.com/@tiktok",
    "instagram:natgeo"
  ],
  "igSampleSize": 12
}
```

# Actor output Schema

## `results` (type: `string`):

One record per profile: platform, username, followers, following, posts, engagement rate, average likes/comments, posting cadence, and engagement grade.

# API

You can run this Actor programmatically using our API. Below are code examples in JavaScript, Python, and CLI, as well as the OpenAPI specification and MCP server setup.

## JavaScript example

```javascript
import { ApifyClient } from 'apify-client';

// Initialize the ApifyClient with your Apify API token
// Replace the '<YOUR_API_TOKEN>' with your token
const client = new ApifyClient({
    token: '<YOUR_API_TOKEN>',
});

// Prepare Actor input
const input = {
    "profiles": [
        "https://www.tiktok.com/@tiktok",
        "instagram:natgeo"
    ]
};

// Run the Actor and wait for it to finish
const run = await client.actor("seemuapps/tiktok-instagram-creator-stats").call(input);

// Fetch and print Actor results from the run's dataset (if any)
console.log('Results from dataset');
console.log(`💾 Check your data here: https://console.apify.com/storage/datasets/${run.defaultDatasetId}`);
const { items } = await client.dataset(run.defaultDatasetId).listItems();
items.forEach((item) => {
    console.dir(item);
});
