Why this scraper?

👤 Know who posted it

Every video comes with its creator: username, display name, profile URL, verified status, private-account flag and bio.

🔢 Exact follower counts

TikTok's hashtag feed rounds audience numbers (5.8M). This scraper reads each creator's profile and returns the exact figure (5,760,883), plus following, total likes, video count and friends.

🏷️ Creator profile details

Bio link, business category, business, organisation and TikTok Shop seller flags, account language and the date the account was created.

📈 Full video metrics

Plays, likes, comments, shares and saves per video, an engagement rate, caption, all hashtags and mentions, music, duration, resolution, location tag and posting date.

🧑‍🤝‍🧑 Creator mode for influencer research

Switch to one row per creator to see who posts under a hashtag, how many of their videos appeared, their total and average plays, and engagement relative to their follower count.

🎯 Filters and monitoring

Minimum follower count, a posting-date window, several hashtags per run with duplicates removed, and an option to skip anything a previous run already returned.

Known limitations

• TikTok shows a logged-out visitor roughly 150 to 250 videos per hashtag. The scraper opens extra sessions to reach the top of that range, but it cannot return a hashtag's full history.
• The hashtag feed is ranked by popularity, not date. A short publishedWithinDays window on an older hashtag can return few or no videos.
• Very broad hashtags such as #fyp return only a handful of videos; TikTok limits those feeds.
• Play counts are rounded by TikTok (e.g. 1,500,000). Follower counts are exact only when fetchCreatorProfiles is on.
• Profile pictures, video files and cover images are not included. Email addresses and phone numbers are removed from bios.
• Photo slideshows do not appear in TikTok's hashtag feed, so only videos are returned.

---

Technical details

• Source: tiktok.com — public hashtag pages and public creator profiles
• Coverage: any public hashtag in any language, including non-Latin scripts
• Deduplication: a video found under two of your hashtags is returned once; skipAlreadySeen remembers results for 90 days
• Retry: automatic retry with a fresh browser when TikTok refuses a request
