Summary

The author announces the addition of TikTok support to Scavio AI, an online search API for AI agents that provides structured JSON data for profiles, videos, comments, and social graphs without requiring authentication.

The product: Scavio AI — an online search API for AI agents allowing them to access the web data in a structured format. In addition to Google, YouTube, Amazon, Walmart, Reddit, I just shipped TikTok support with 11 endpoints: \- User profiles -- followers, following, bio, avatar, total likes. \- User videos -- paginated feed with sort by latest or popular. \- Video details -- full metadata for any TikTok video. \- Comments + replies -- threaded comment data with pagination. \- Search -- search videos and users by keyword with filters (time range, sort by likes). \- Hashtags -- hashtag stats and associated videos. \- Social graph -- follower and following lists. Would love feedback from anyone working with TikTok data. What endpoints or features would be most useful to add next?
