About TikTok User Search Scraper

Need to find TikTok creators or analyze user trends? This scraper pulls detailed user profiles directly from TikTok's search results, giving you clean, structured data without the manual work. Here's what you get from each profile: username, display name, bio description, follower counts, video totals, profile links, and unique author IDs. It captures exactly what you see when you search for users on TikTok yourself. I use this to track rising creators in specific niches, compile lists for outreach campaigns, and gather competitive intelligence. It's straightforward—you provide the search query, and it handles the rest, returning ready-to-use JSON or CSV. The data is perfect for populating databases, enriching social listening platforms, or powering lead generation workflows. If you've ever tried to collect this information manually, you know it's tedious and inconsistent. This automates that process reliably. Just set your target keywords or hashtags related to your niche, run the actor, and you'll have a spreadsheet of relevant user profiles in minutes.
