About TikData
What is TikData? ▾
TikData is an analytics platform for TikTok LIVE. It captures every gift on your creators’ live streams and turns it into something you can act on — a permanent profile for every gifter, retention alerts when a top supporter goes quiet, battle and power-up tracking, rankings, and reports. It’s built for the people who actually monetize TikTok LIVE: creators and the agencies that manage them.
Who is TikData for? ▾
Two kinds of people. Solo creators who want to understand and grow their own live earnings, and agencies or managers who run a roster of creators and need to compare them, follow gifters across the whole roster, and spot retention risk early. There’s a plan for each.
How is TikData different from other TikTok analytics tools? ▾
Most tools stop at views, followers, and watch time. TikData is about the gifters — the people who actually fund a live stream. We build a permanent profile and funnel for every gifter (including anonymous and obscured ones), track lifetime spend across creators, and flag a big supporter before they cool off. That gifter-level intelligence is the whole point.
Gifter intelligence
What is a gifter profile? ▾
A permanent record of one gifter: their lifetime diamonds, every creator and stream they’ve supported, when they tend to show up (a day-by-hour heatmap), the names they’ve used, and whether they’re active, cooling, or lapsed. It persists between streams and keeps accumulating, so you build real history on the people who matter most.
Can you really track anonymous and "Enigma" gifters? ▾
Yes — this is the hard part we built TikData around. Even when TikTok hides or randomizes a gifter’s name, we keep a stable identity for that person so their gifts roll up into one consistent profile. If an obscured gifter later reveals themselves, we connect the earlier history to the revealed identity. Two different people who happen to show the same hidden name are never merged.
What are retention (cool-off) alerts? ▾
TikData watches your top supporters and flags when one goes quiet — no gift in a while, when they used to be regular. You see it before they’re gone, so you can re-engage them. If that gifter is still active on another creator in your roster, we surface that too, so an agency can reroute the relationship instead of losing it.
Can I see the best times to go live? ▾
Yes. Every gifter and creator has a 7×24 day-by-hour heatmap of gifting activity, so you can see exactly when your audience shows up and schedule lives when it counts.
Features
Does TikData track battles and power-ups? ▾
Yes. We track 1v1 battle profitability and the power-up cards played during them, so you can see which battles actually pay off and who is fueling them.
What are Rankings? ▾
Live regional leaderboards plus a daily history, so you can see where your creators and the top gifters stand and how that moves over time.
Can I compare creators and find shared gifters? ▾
Yes. Put two creators side by side to compare earnings and activity, and see the gifters they share — useful for understanding overlap and where to focus.
Can I export reports? ▾
Yes. Every creator can be exported as a clean one-click PDF or CSV report you can hand to a creator or keep for your records.
Data & accuracy
Where does the data come from? ▾
From real-time, public TikTok LIVE activity — the gifts that happen on a creator’s live stream, captured as they happen. We don’t use private account data and we don’t ask creators to hand over their login.
How fresh is the data? ▾
It’s live. While a creator is streaming, gifts are captured in real time, and your dashboard updates continuously. We connect automatically the moment a tracked creator goes live and stop when the stream ends.
What happens when a creator isn’t live? ▾
We only capture during live streams — that’s when gifting happens. Between streams, the gifter profiles and history you’ve built stay put and keep growing each time the creator goes live again.
How far back does the data go? ▾
Tracking begins the moment you add a creator and they next go live. We can’t recover streams from before you added them, so the sooner a creator is on your roster, the more complete their history becomes.
Do creators need to connect their TikTok account? ▾
No. You add any public creator by their @handle — no passwords, no account access, nothing for the creator to install or approve.
Privacy & getting started
Is my data private to me? ▾
Yes. You only ever see the creators on your own roster, and your account’s data is isolated from every other customer’s. We don’t share or sell your analytics.
How much does it cost? Is there a free trial? ▾
Plans scale by how many creators you track — Creator (1), Starter (10), Pro (25), and Premium (100) — and every plan includes the full toolkit, with no paid add-ons. There’s no free trial, but a one-time $10 Week Pass unlocks full access for 7 days so you can try it on your own lives first. See the pricing page for the full breakdown.
How do I add a creator? ▾
Open the Creators page, hit the plus, and enter their @handle. Capture starts the next time that creator goes live — no setup on their end.
How do I get started? ▾
Sign up and add your first creator in a couple of minutes, or book a quick demo and we’ll walk your roster through it with you.
