How it works
Handles and canonical profile URLs are accepted where the platform supports them.
The page returns the public follower or subscriber count and the supporting profile metrics.
Every successful lookup includes the time Sourcevine read the public page.
Recorded example
A real response from /v1/tiktok/profile, kept so this page can
show something true without spending anyone’s credits. Run the tool
above for a live read of your own link.
Why Sourcevine
Check a public TikTok profile without connecting your own TikTok account.
TikTok publishes a running total of likes across every video an account has posted. It only goes up, so it says more about tenure than about how a recent post performed.
The result includes when the public page was read, so the number is easier to reconcile later.
Use cases
Check an account is real and sized before approving it for a TikTok Shop or affiliate programme.
Add a current public profile count to a lead or account record.
Separate public, private and unsupported links before a batch job.
Boundaries
Private accounts and restricted content are not accessed. Deleted resources return an availability status.
Bios, emails, phone numbers, addresses and messenger handles are outside this product boundary.
TikTok does not publish how many times a profile page was viewed, so there is no number to return. The field is absent rather than zero.
Sourcevine does not claim that profiles on different platforms belong to the same person.
Questions
Any public one. Private accounts are not readable, and the tool will tell you that instead of showing a number.
They are read from TikTok when you ask, and the page tells you the exact time it read them. If someone already checked the same profile moments ago you get that reading, which is why it is instant.
Private or restricted content, bios and contact details are not returned. A platform may show a sign-in prompt for public content; the scope is public data, not whether the platform presents a login screen. If an account is private, the tool says so.
Yes, a free Sourcevine account; you never log in to the platform itself. Signing up gives you 100 credits once, no card, and they do not renew. A lookup spends one or two of them, and you can see every run in your dashboard. When they are gone, a prepaid pack tops the balance up and never expires.
API
Use the API when follower or subscriber counts need to land in a database, dashboard or spreadsheet.
