Use my connected Agentik MCP server for this job: influencer shortlist.

Build an influencer shortlist on TikTok. First ask me for my niche, my target audience and its countries, and my budget per creator.

Find creators with scrapecreators/get-v1-tiktok-search-users and read 20 profiles with scrapecreators/get-v1-tiktok-profile. For the five best fits, read where their audience lives with scrapecreators/get-v1-tiktok-user-audience, check one recent video for fake views with tikhub/tiktok-analytics-detect-fake-views, find their other channels with scrapecreators/get-v1-find-social-profiles, and check the press for controversies with serper/news.

Finish with a shortlist (creator, followers, engagement, audience match, fake-view risk, other channels, brand-safety notes) and the three to contact first.

Before running anything, inspect each tool with inspect_tool, ask me for any input you don’t have instead of inventing it, and tell me the total price. Wait for my go. At the end, tell me what Agentik charged.

## Ask it your way

- Find five TikTok creators in home fitness whose audience is mostly in the US.
- Check whether this creator’s views look real.
- Which of these creators have a YouTube or Instagram channel too?
- Is there anything in the press about these creators that we should know?

## Why through Agentik

- Creator search, audiences, fake-view checks and press come from ScrapeCreators, TikHub and Serper through one connection.
- Audience locations are the largest share of the price, at about five cents per creator.

## Good to know

- Audience data is an estimate from TikTok’s public signals.
- A fake-view score is a risk signal on one video, not a verdict on the creator.

## When to use something else

To manage contracts, payments and campaign tracking for many creators, use an influencer platform. This playbook vets a shortlist before you reach out.

## Influencer shortlist: questions

### Where does the audience data come from?

From TikTok’s public signals, read by ScrapeCreators. It is an estimate, not the creator’s private analytics.

### What does the fake-view check show?

A risk signal on one video, not a verdict on the creator. Your AI reads it with the other numbers.

### What does the example cost?

At most $0.49, reserved before each call and settled at the measured usage.
