TikTok Video Analyzer
Plays, engagement and the video file
What Is the TikTok Video Analyzer?
The TikTok Video Analyzer shows the public numbers behind any TikTok video: plays, likes, comments, shares and saves, plus its engagement rate. It also pulls the caption, hashtags, sound, post date and duration, the creator's profile and follower count, and a direct link to the video file.
Key Features
Reading TikTok Engagement
Engagement rate here is likes, comments, shares and saves divided by plays. TikTok rates tend to run higher than on most platforms, so compare a video with others from accounts of a similar size rather than against a fixed number. Saves and shares deserve extra weight: they're the clearest sign that people found a video worth keeping or passing on.
Researching Trends and Creators
Checking a handful of videos shows you what's working in a niche: which hooks, sounds and formats get shared. Agencies and brands also use these numbers to vet creators before a paid deal. Doing that across hundreds of videos is a scraping job, and TikTok blocks repeated automated traffic quickly, so it usually runs through mobile or residential proxies.
Common Use Cases
- Vetting a creator before a sponsorship
- Studying what made a competitor's video take off
- Tracking a campaign video's performance
- Saving a video's stats for a report
Frequently Asked Questions
Is the TikTok Video Analyzer free?
Yes. It's free with a ProxyHorizon account, and every account gets 25 runs a day shared across all our data tools. You can read about the tool without signing in, but running it needs an account because each run fetches live data.
How is the engagement rate calculated?
Likes, comments, shares and saves added together, divided by plays.
Does it work on private videos?
No. It can only read public videos.
Can I download the video?
The analyzer returns a direct link to the video file. TikTok expires these links after a few hours, so use it soon, and only download videos you have the right to use.
Are the numbers live?
They're fetched when you run the tool, though they can be up to a day old because popular videos are cached briefly.
