Do I need a TikTok API key?

No. BuzzTake signs in to your TikTok account the way a person does, so there is no developer app, API key or app review.

Can my AI agent use TikTok through MCP?

Yes. Add the BuzzTake MCP server to Claude, Cursor or any MCP client. Each TikTok action is a tool, such as post, reply or send_message.

What does a TikTok action cost?

A post is 10 credits ($0.10), a reply 8, a like or a follow 3, and a read 4. One credit is one US cent.

TikTok API for AI agents

Connect your TikTok account once. Your agent posts, replies, likes and follows, and sends DMs through MCP or REST. No TikTok API key and no app review.

Automate TikTok with MCP

Ask in plain words. Your agent makes the call and gets the link back.

A video or a photo post with a caption; a post needs media.

MCP tool call

post

// You: "Upload the teaser to TikTok."
// The agent calls the post tool:
{
  "account_id": "acc_tiktok",
  "text": "Out Friday.",
  "media": [
    "med_teaser"
  ]
}

REST

POST /v1/accounts/acc_tiktok/actions

curl https://api.buzztake.com/v1/accounts/acc_tiktok/actions \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $BUZZTAKE_API_KEY" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"type":"post","text":"Out Friday.","media":["med_teaser"],"wait":60}'
