Use the TikTok follower count API from Claude, ChatGPT or Cursor

Pick your tool and connect in under a minute. Then just ask — for example: “What are the follower counts of @khaby.lame, @charlidamelio and @mrbeast?”

Connect Claude

Web, desktop and mobile. One click, then confirm.

1Click Add to Claude — claude.ai opens with Sourcelane filled in
2Click Continue to confirm — it then works in Claude desktop and mobile too

Manual setup (config files, REST, Python) +

Claude Code

Adds the Sourcelane MCP server with your key as a header.

terminal

claude mcp add --transport http sourcelane https://api.usesourcelane.com/mcp \
  --header "Authorization: Bearer sl_live_your_agent_key"

Claude Desktop (config file)

Alternative to the connector URL: add to claude_desktop_config.json, then restart Claude.

claude_desktop_config.json

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "sourcelane": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "-y",
        "mcp-remote",
        "https://api.usesourcelane.com/mcp",
        "--header",
        "Authorization:${AUTH_HEADER}"
      ],
      "env": {
        "AUTH_HEADER": "Bearer sl_live_your_agent_key"
      }
    }
  }
}

Cursor & Windsurf

Add to ~/.cursor/mcp.json (or Windsurf's mcp_config.json).

mcp.json

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "sourcelane": {
      "url": "https://api.usesourcelane.com/mcp",
      "headers": {
        "Authorization": "Bearer sl_live_your_agent_key"
      }
    }
  }
}

VS Code

Save as .vscode/mcp.json. VS Code prompts for your key once.

.vscode/mcp.json

{
  "servers": {
    "sourcelane": {
      "type": "http",
      "url": "https://api.usesourcelane.com/mcp",
      "headers": {
        "Authorization": "Bearer ${input:sourcelane-key}"
      }
    }
  },
  "inputs": [
    {
      "type": "promptString",
      "id": "sourcelane-key",
      "description": "Sourcelane agent key",
      "password": true
    }
  ]
}

ChatGPT Custom GPT (Actions)

OpenAPI schema URL

REST

One POST. Pass maxResults to cap cost.

curl

curl -X POST https://api.usesourcelane.com/v1/call \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer sl_live_your_agent_key" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"listing":"tiktok-user-scraper","params":{"usernames":["tiktok","natgeo"]},"maxResults":10}'

Python, LangChain, CrewAI, OpenAI Agents SDK…

Wrap the REST call as a tool, or point an MCP client at the endpoint.

python

import requests

res = requests.post(
    "https://api.usesourcelane.com/v1/call",
    headers={"Authorization": "Bearer sl_live_your_agent_key"},
    json={
        "listing": "tiktok-user-scraper",
        "params": {"usernames":["tiktok","natgeo"]},
        "maxResults": 10,
    },
    timeout=300,
)
body = res.json()
print(body["receipt"]["chargedMicros"], "micro-USD for", body["receipt"]["results"], "results")
print(body["data"])

TikTok follower count API — FAQ

Can I check many accounts at once?+

Yes. Pass a list of usernames; you're charged per profile returned.

Do I need a TikTok API key or developer account?+

No. Sourcelane runs the connectors for you. You top up a balance with a card, create an agent key, and your agent calls the connector — there is no TikTok app review, OAuth setup or rate-limit juggling on your side.

Which AI tools can use it?+

Anything that speaks MCP (Claude Desktop, Claude Code, Cursor, VS Code, Windsurf) can connect to the Sourcelane MCP server with one config block. ChatGPT can use it through a Custom GPT Action, and any agent framework can call the REST endpoint directly.

Can I stop an agent from overspending?+

Yes. Every agent key has its own per-call cap, daily and monthly limits, an optional lifetime budget, an allowlist of connectors, and a kill switch.
