Email me new comments

We check this post on a schedule and email you the comments posted since the last check. They also wait on your account page as a file, for 30 days.

With words set, you're emailed only when a new comment mentions one of them; every new comment still goes in the file.

Step by step

  1. Paste the video link

    Share → Copy link in TikTok, then paste it and press Get comments.

  2. Type what you're looking for

    A word from the comment, part of a username or a display name. The line under the bar counts the threads that match.

  3. Filter and sort

    Questions keeps comments with a question mark. Buying intent keeps comments TikTok itself marks as likely to buy. "Most comments" lists who commented most often.

  4. Save the matches

    "Download these (CSV)" saves the loaded comments; export to get every comment on the video.

Questions

Does the search include replies?

The free list searches top-level comments. Export with replies on to get every reply and search the file.

Is the buying-intent flag guessed by AI?

No. It's a mark TikTok puts on comments in its own data. It's only on TikTok, and not every comment gets one.

What about videos with more than 500 comments?

The free viewer reads the first 500. An export reads them all (300 points per 1,000 rows, $3 at the base rate), and the file can be searched in Excel or Google Sheets.
