## Pricing

from $2.10 / 1,000 profile scrapeds

This Actor is paid per event. You are not charged for the Apify platform usage, but only a fixed price for specific events.
Since this Actor supports Apify Store discounts, the price gets lower the higher subscription plan you have.

## What's an Apify Actor?

An Actor is a serverless cloud program that runs on the Apify platform. It has two run modes.
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.

Apify vocabulary and the platform model are defined once, in the agent quickstart at https://apify.com/agents.md.

## 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.

Do not guess an integration path. Every one of them is in the agent quickstart at https://apify.com/agents.md: the Apify MCP server, Agent Skills with the Apify CLI, the JavaScript and Python clients, the REST API, and the account-free path for an agent with no human to sign in. It also carries the rule on stating cost before the first paid run.

For examples already wired to this Actor's own input schema, see the [API](#api) section below.

Each client library has reference documentation the quickstart does not restate: [JavaScript/TypeScript](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/js/docs.md) (`npm install apify-client`) and [Python](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/python/docs.md) (`pip install apify-client`).

# README

## TikTok Profile Scraper — Followers, Likes, Bio Emails & Links

Paste TikTok usernames or profile URLs and get one clean row per creator:

**username, display name, exact followers / following / likes / video count, average likes per video, likes-per-follower ratio, bio, bio link, emails and URLs found in the bio, verified, private, organization, TikTok Shop seller and commerce flags, language, avatar, account ID & secUid, account creation date.**

### How to run it in 3 steps

1. **Add your input.** In **TikTok usernames or profile URLs** paste TikTok usernames or profile links — e.g. `nasa` or `https://www.tiktok.com/@nba`. The form is already filled with a working example, so you can skip this step for a first try.
2. **Press Start.** The prefilled run returns 2 profiles in about 2 s and costs about **$0.006**. Set **Max results (cost cap)** to cap the cost of bigger runs; you only pay for profiles actually delivered.
3. **Get the data.** Open the **Output** tab and export JSON, CSV or Excel — or run it from the API, Make, Zapier, n8n or an AI agent (see below).

### Features

- **Exact numbers** (2,071,027 — not "2.1M").
- **Outreach-ready:** emails and link-in-bio URLs are pulled out of the bio for you.
- **HTTP only, no browser:** plain HTTP, ~5 profiles per second, no browser, no login.
- **Pay per profile:** $3 per 1,000 profiles. Not-found and filtered accounts are free.

### Use cases

- **Influencer marketing:** vet creators by followers, engagement and verified status before reaching out.
- **Lead generation:** collect business emails and links of creators and brands in your niche.
- **Competitor & brand monitoring:** track followers and likes of brand accounts over time (schedule daily runs).

### Lead-generation workflow: works well with

The same people who use this actor usually need one of these next:

- **[Google Maps Scraper: Leads with Phones, Emails & Socials](https://apify.com/torix33/google-maps-scraper)** — find local businesses on Google Maps with phones, emails and social links
- **[Contact Info & Contact Details Scraper: Emails, Phone Numbers](https://apify.com/torix33/website-contact-details-extractor)** — turn any list of websites into emails, phones and social profiles
- **[Website Tech Stack Detector: CMS, Analytics, CRM & More](https://apify.com/torix33/website-tech-stack-detector)** — qualify the leads by the technologies their websites use (Shopify, HubSpot, Stripe…)
- **[LinkedIn Company Scraper: Size, Industry, HQ, Employees](https://apify.com/torix33/linkedin-company-scraper)** — enrich companies with LinkedIn industry, size, headquarters and website
- **[Google Play Scraper: Apps, Developer Emails, Ratings & Reviews](https://apify.com/torix33/google-play-scraper)** — collect Google Play apps with developer emails and websites
- **[Shopify Store & Product Scraper: Prices, Variants, Stock](https://apify.com/torix33/shopify-store-scraper)** — scrape the product catalog of any Shopify store you found

### Pricing

- **$3.00 per 1,000 profiles** ($0.003 per profile).
- The prefilled input returns 2 profiles → **$0.006**.
- Example: 1,000 profiles → $3.00; 10,000 → $30.00. Set **Max results (cost cap)** to limit any run.

* Not-found and filtered accounts are free.
* Your Apify spending limit is respected exactly: the actor stops charging and finishes cleanly when it is reached. Apify platform usage (compute, proxy) is included in the price.

### Use with AI agents (MCP), LangChain, RAG & the API

This actor is a ready-made **tool for AI agents**: an LLM can call it, wait for the run and read clean JSON back.

**MCP server (Claude Desktop, Claude Code, Cursor, VS Code, any MCP client)** — add Apify's hosted MCP server with this actor enabled as a tool:

```json
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "apify": {
      "url": "https://mcp.apify.com/?tools=torix33/tiktok-profile-scraper",
      "headers": { "Authorization": "Bearer <APIFY_TOKEN>" }
    }
  }
}
```

**LangChain / LangGraph** (`pip install langchain-apify`, set `APIFY_API_TOKEN`):

```python
import json
from langchain_apify import ApifyActorsTool, ApifyWrapper
from langchain_core.documents import Document

## 1) give the actor to an agent as a tool
tool = ApifyActorsTool("torix33/tiktok-profile-scraper")

## 2) or load results as Documents for a RAG index
loader = ApifyWrapper().call_actor(
    actor_id="torix33/tiktok-profile-scraper",
    run_input={"profiles": ["nasa", "@khaby.lame", "https://www.tiktok.com/@duolingo"], "minFollowers": 10000},
    dataset_mapping_function=lambda item: Document(page_content=json.dumps(item, ensure_ascii=False), metadata={"url": item.get("url")}),
)
docs = loader.load()
```

**REST API — one synchronous call, dataset items in the response:**

```bash
curl -X POST "https://api.apify.com/v2/acts/torix33~tiktok-profile-scraper/run-sync-get-dataset-items?token=<APIFY_TOKEN>" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"profiles": ["nasa", "@khaby.lame", "https://www.tiktok.com/@duolingo"], "minFollowers": 10000}'
```

Also works with the Apify Python/JS clients, **Make, Zapier, n8n**, Google Sheets, webhooks and schedules. Export as JSON, CSV, Excel, XML or RSS.

**RAG tip:** An influencer-vetting agent can sort by `followers` and `avgLikesPerVideo` and draft outreach using `bio` and `emails`.

### Limitations

- One row per profile with totals/averages — no video lists or comments.
- Private, banned and non-existent accounts return no row (free).
- Only public profile data; no login.

### FAQ

**Do I need a TikTok account?**
No. Only public profile data, no login.

**Are follower counts exact?**
Yes — e.g. 2,071,027, not "2.1M".

**Does it scrape videos?**
No. One row per profile with totals and averages; it is built for creator vetting.

# 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

const run = await client.actor("torix33/tiktok-profile-scraper").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();

## MCP server setup

        }
    }
}
```

The hosted server signs you in with OAuth on first connect, so no API token belongs in this config. Clients without OAuth support can send an `Authorization: Bearer <APIFY_API_TOKEN>` header instead, using a token from API & Integrations in Apify Console (https://console.apify.com/settings/integrations).
