TikTok Video Transcriber

Automatically transcribe TikTok videos at scale. Paste in a list of TikTok URLs and get back full text transcriptions — with or without timestamps — plus all the video metadata in a clean, structured dataset.

Powered by OpenAI Whisper, supporting 90+ languages with automatic language detection.

What you get

For each TikTok URL you provide, the Actor returns:

• Full plain-text transcription — ready to copy, search, or feed into your workflows
• Timestamped segments and words — perfect for subtitles, captions, or highlight clipping
• TikTok metadata — title, views, likes, comments, shares, creator info, upload date, and more

If a video can't be transcribed (private, deleted, age-restricted), the item is still saved with null transcription fields so your pipeline never breaks.

Input

{
"videoUrls":[
"https://www.tiktok.com/@creator/video/7199991486673358086"
],
"sourceLanguage":"auto"
}

Output

One structured item per URL, saved to the Apify dataset.
