Check if TikTok creators are live right now. Get the live title, viewer count, start time and HLS/FLV stream links for a list of usernames in bulk.
A TikTok live-status monitoring tool that performs real-time bulk checks of TikTok accounts to detect who is live, harvest live metadata, and extract usable stream endpoints. The connector probes usernames to determine live/offline/not-found status and, for active streams, captures the live title, start time and elapsed minutes, current viewer count and cumulative viewers, cover image, temporary HLS and FLV pull URLs with available stream qualities, and account metadata such as display name, numeric ID, follower count and verification state. Outputs are structured per account (one record per username) and include a concise run summary of live/offline/not-found counts.
