What does TikTok Scraper do?

TikTok Scraper collects public post data from TikTok in two modes:

• Keyword / Hashtag Search — Find posts matching any keyword or hashtag (e.g. street food, #travel). Great for trend research, competitor analysis, and content discovery.
• Profile Scraping — Extract recent posts from any public TikTok profile. Supports date filtering and content type selection (posts, reposts, liked posts).

Both modes run in parallel — scraping 5 keywords and 3 profiles takes the same time as scraping 1 keyword and 1 profile.
