Input

Input settings for TikTok Keyword & Brand Mention Monitor
SettingTypeRequiredDefaultWhat it does
keywords array Yes – Terms to monitor. One per line. Accepts plain keywords and phrases ('nike', 'nike shoes'), hashtags ('#JustDoIt') and handles ('@gymshark'). Multi-word caption matches require a contiguous phrase; direct @handles require a clickable tag.
matchMode string No mentionsOnly 'Real mentions' keeps posts with a contiguous caption phrase, a matching hashtag slug, a clickable @mention or an explicit sound match. For direct @handle inputs only the clickable tag (or sound) counts. 'Every search result' also keeps weak search hits, labelled searchResult.
datePosted string No anyTime Only keep posts published in this window. The actor asks TikTok for the matching publish window, merges a bounded unfiltered pass for recall, and applies the exact cutoff.
postedAfter string No – Optional exact cut-off, e.g. 2026-10-01 or '3 days'. The tighter of this and 'Posted within' applies.
sortBy string No relevance Order of the final rows. 'Newest first' is the monitor-friendly order; TikTok's own newest ordering is used where available, with a client-side fallback.
searchDepth string No standard 'Just this term' runs one search. 'Standard' adds the #hashtag and @handle for single-word terms. 'Deep' also reads photo/slideshow posts, related searches and case/spacing variants. A direct @handle stays tagged-only in mentionsOnly.
maxResultsPerKeyword integer No 50 Maximum rows kept for each keyword after all sources are merged (1-500). TikTok returns roughly 130-240 posts per source query; deep mode can find more across sources.
maxItems integer No – Optional global cap across all keywords and sources.
minPlayCount integer No – Drop posts with fewer plays/views. Leave empty for no minimum.
searchCountry string No any 'Any country' uses the fastest free connection. A specific country pins the search to that market's results, which is slower but shows what people there see.

More input settings for TikTok Keyword & Brand Mention Monitor
SettingTypeRequiredDefaultWhat it does
onlyNewMentions boolean No false Emit only posts not seen by this monitor in previous runs. The first run backfills; 'new' means new to this monitor, not new on TikTok.
monitorName string No default Name for this watchlist's saved state. Use a different name for a separate set of keywords.
soundUrls array No – Optional TikTok sound URLs or IDs to read as explicit sources, e.g. https://www.tiktok.com/music/original-sound-123... . Sound evidence sets soundMatch; a sound-only row uses source=sound and keyword=sound:<musicId>.

Example input

Built from the input form's published example values and defaults.

  ],
  "matchMode": "mentionsOnly",

Run it from code or an AI agent

The same run through the Apify API, with the example input. You need an Apify API token; the run is billed to your account at the Store price.

Python

from apify_client import ApifyClient

client = ApifyClient("<YOUR_APIFY_TOKEN>")
run_input = {
    "keywords": [
        "coffee"
    ],
    "matchMode": "mentionsOnly",
    "datePosted": "anyTime",
    "sortBy": "relevance",
    "searchDepth": "keywordOnly",
    "maxResultsPerKeyword": 3,
    "searchCountry": "any",
    "onlyNewMentions": False,
    "monitorName": "default"
}

run = client.actor("dataspryva/tiktok-keyword-and-brand-mention-monitor").call(run_input=run_input)
if run is None:
    raise RuntimeError("The Actor run was not found.")
for item in client.dataset(run.default_dataset_id).iterate_items():
    print(item)

pip install apify-client

JavaScript

import { ApifyClient } from "apify-client";

const client = new ApifyClient({ token: "<YOUR_APIFY_TOKEN>" });
const input = {
    "keywords": [
        "coffee"
    ],
    "matchMode": "mentionsOnly",
    "datePosted": "anyTime",
    "sortBy": "relevance",
    "searchDepth": "keywordOnly",
    "maxResultsPerKeyword": 3,
    "searchCountry": "any",
    "onlyNewMentions": false,
    "monitorName": "default"
};

const run = await client.actor("dataspryva/tiktok-keyword-and-brand-mention-monitor").call(input);
const { items } = await client.dataset(run.defaultDatasetId).listItems();
console.log(items);

npm install apify-client

cURL

curl -X POST "https://api.apify.com/v2/actors/dataspryva~tiktok-keyword-and-brand-mention-monitor/run-sync-get-dataset-items"   -H "Authorization: Bearer $APIFY_TOKEN"   -H "Content-Type: application/json"   -d '{"keywords":["coffee"],"matchMode":"mentionsOnly","datePosted":"anyTime","sortBy":"relevance","searchDepth":"keywordOnly","maxResultsPerKeyword":3,"searchCountry":"any","onlyNewMentions":false,"monitorName":"default"}'

Waits for the run and returns the dataset items (runs over 300 seconds return HTTP 408; start an async run instead).

MCP (AI agents)

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "apify": {
      "url": "https://mcp.apify.com?tools=dataspryva/tiktok-keyword-and-brand-mention-monitor",
      "headers": {
        "Authorization": "Bearer <YOUR_APIFY_TOKEN>"
      }
    }
  }
}

Adds this Actor as a tool in an MCP client that takes a remote server URL (Cursor, VS Code, Claude Code) through Apify's hosted MCP server. OAuth sign-in also works without the header. Clients that only start local servers can wrap the URL with npx mcp-remote.

What a run costs

The result rate falls on higher Apify plans. Each figure is the published per-result rate times the number of results.

Cost of TikTok Keyword & Brand Mention Monitor results by Apify plan
Apify planPer 1,00010,000 results100,000 results
Free plan$0.99$9.90$99
Starter plan$0.82$8.20$82
Scale plan$0.66$6.60$66
Business plan$0.49$4.90$49
  • Every run also has a start event, charged per GB of memory (minimum one): $0.10 on Free, $0.03 on Business. At its default memory of 4 GB a run starts at $0.40 on Free. Fewer, larger runs keep this small.
  • The Free plan includes $5 of monthly usage (Apify pricing, checked 2026-11-11); at the Free rate that covers at most about 5,050 results, less start events and platform usage.
  • Worked example: 10,000 results in one run on the Free plan cost $10.30 ($9.90 for results + $0.40 start), plus Apify platform usage (compute), billed separately by Apify.
  • Pay per event. Platform usage (compute) is billed by Apify on top of the event prices. Compare other tools in the cost estimator.

Stops are fields. A ring means the field is in that route's published output schema; no ring means the line passes without it. Bold labels are the core fields for this website, the rest are fields that differ between routes. A white capsule means every data line stops there. The red line is the official API; its field coverage is not compared. A crossed red line means there is no open official API.

Official route: TikTok APIs

Limited access. TikTok offers Display APIs for authorized accounts, a Research API for approved academic researchers, and business products. There is no open general-purpose public content API.

Separate products have their own terms; general access is not sold as a self-serve per-call API.
