Turn TikTok into a REST + MCP endpoint

Writ turns the TikTok actions you already do in a browser into a callable REST endpoint your software (and your AI agents) can call.

Writ runs on your own accounts, with your own credentials and data, on sites you are authorized to use.

No TikTok API yet? Build one in minutes

Record the TikTok task once (open a profile, then read recent videos and metrics) and call it as a REST endpoint and an MCP tool. No backend project, no waiting on TikTok to ship an API.

  1. 1
    Record the TikTok task once

    Open the recorder and open a profile on TikTok in a real browser. Writ captures each step, including login and 2FA, into a reusable workflow.

  2. 2
    Publish it as an endpoint

    One click turns the workflow into a callable REST endpoint at /v1/tiktok/run and a matching MCP tool. Inputs become a typed schema.

  3. 3
    Call it from anything

    Call TikTok from your code, a no-code tool, or an AI agent. Run it on your own machine for free, or on metered cloud.

Read the REST API docs, see what's possible on workflows, or search for another site. Free to start. See pricing.

gap ▸ no public api 02
03
why

TikTok doesn't give you the endpoint you need

TikTok has an API, but TikTok's APIs are gated for research and marketing partners; there is no general API for browsing profiles and videos.

Writ closes that gap. Record the TikTok task once (or describe it to an AI session) and publish it as a REST endpoint at /v1/tiktok/run and a matching MCP tool. Writ runs on your own accounts, with your own credentials and data, on sites you are authorized to use.

What you can call on TikTok

Each operation below is a real TikTok action recorded into a workflow and exposed as a typed endpoint.

{ }open a profile
{ }read recent videos and metrics
{ }search a hashtag
{ }export results

Returns structured fields such as video caption, views, likes, comment count: typed JSON, not raw page text.

Also an MCP tool. The same workflow is exposed as an MCP tool your AI agent can call. See TikTok MCP tools, or browse all MCP clients.

the hard web

Login, 2FA, and dynamic pages on TikTok

The reason TikTok has no usable API is the same reason it's hard to automate. Writ handles it.

Writ signs into your own TikTok account through a Persona for views that need a session, or reads public profiles with no login.

Three ways to build your TikTok endpoint

Pick whichever fits the task. All three produce the same callable workflow.

Record itOpen the recorder, open a profile on TikTok once in a real browser, and Writ captures every step into a workflow.
Describe itTell an AI session your goal on TikTok in plain language, and it drives the page to build the workflow for you.
Discover itLet API discovery watch TikTok's own network calls as you browse, then turn the underlying requests into a fast workflow.

Built on the same engine as the recorder and workflows.

Trigger your TikTok endpoint on a change

Monitor TikTok for new video from an account, view threshold, follower-count change and fire this endpoint the instant something changes.

Monitors check as fast as every 10s (10s on Enterprise). A detected change becomes an automation trigger that runs your workflow in seconds. Monitor TikTok ▸

run it

Free on your own machine, or on cloud

Local / BYO agent

No compute charge. The agent runs on your hardware, so it can reach TikTok even from an intranet or VPN-only network, and your AI keys never leave your machine.

Writ cloud

Metered by running time at $0.12 per browser-hour, drawn from your plan’s included usage. No infrastructure to manage.

TikTok API questions

Does TikTok have an API?
TikTok has an API, but TikTok's APIs are gated for research and marketing partners; there is no general API for browsing profiles and videos. Writ gives you a callable /v1/tiktok/run endpoint that runs the real TikTok flow in a browser and returns structured JSON.
Is there a ready-made TikTok API I can use?
Record the TikTok task once in the recorder (open a profile, then read recent videos and metrics) or describe it to an AI session. Writ turns it into a callable REST endpoint and MCP tool. It usually takes minutes, not a backend project.
Is it allowed to automate TikTok this way?
Use Writ on your own TikTok account and on content you are authorized to access. Respect its Terms of Service. Writ runs on your own accounts, with your own credentials and data, on sites you are authorized to use.
Does this work with TikTok login and 2FA?
Writ signs into your own TikTok account through a Persona for views that need a session, or reads public profiles with no login. Writ handles TOTP and mailbox-OTP two-factor through Personas, so the endpoint runs inside your own authenticated session.
Can I run it on my own machine?
Yes. Run it on a local or BYO agent for no compute charge — useful when TikTok is only reachable from your own network or VPN, and free on every plan. Or run it on metered cloud at $0.12 per browser-hour, drawn from your plan’s included usage.
