    Read ER + AI audit

    Get average and median engagement rate, a per-video breakdown, and a short audit grounded in those numbers.

What you're measuring

Follower-based TikTok engagement rate, explained

The formula most teams use for TikTok influencer vetting: interactions ÷ followers × 100. Strong for comparing similar-sized creators — not a full picture of reach or revenue.

01

Interactions

Likes + comments + shares per video. Saves stay out of the headline rate — useful context, not the standard ER numerator.

02

Follower denominator

Current public follower count. Standard for comparing creators of similar size in influencer vetting.

03

Views stay separate

View counts show in the table but do not feed average ER, so cross-video comparisons stay readable.

Formula per video

(likes + comments + shares) ÷ followers × 100

Headline metrics are the average and median across recent videos with visible counts.

Benchmarks

What is a good TikTok engagement rate?

There is no universal "good" number. Account size, niche, and content mix all move the baseline. Use these bands as context when you compare creators.

Nano (under ~10k)

Often the highest ER — smaller audiences engage more tightly. Treat bands as directional, not a pass/fail score.

Micro to mid

Rates usually settle lower as follower counts grow. Compare creators in the same niche and size band.

Large and mega

Lower ER is common at scale. Look at absolute interactions and content mix, not percentage alone.

Free tool

Good for spot checks, not pipelines

Built for a quick engagement check on one creator.

Cloudflare Turnstile keeps bots off the free page.

02

Recent-video window

Metrics come from the latest videos page returned by the profile videos endpoint — not a full archive.

03

AI is optional context

Structured metrics stand alone. The audit reads those numbers only — it does not invent follower counts or ER.

Private accounts may show basics, but public ER needs visible video data.

FAQ

TikTok engagement rate FAQ

How is TikTok engagement rate calculated?

(likes + comments + shares) ÷ followers × 100 per recent video with visible counts. We report average and median. Views stay separate.

What is a good TikTok engagement rate?

It depends on follower size and niche. Nano accounts often post higher ER; large accounts usually sit lower. Compare creators in the same size band — use our quality labels as directional context, not a pass/fail score.

What's the difference between average and median engagement rate?

Average is the mean — one viral video can pull it up. Median is steadier when performance is uneven. We show both.

Why don't views count toward engagement rate?

Views measure delivery, not interaction. Including them would mix two different questions. We show views in the table for context.

Why don't saves count toward engagement rate?

Saves are useful texture, but the common follower-based TikTok ER formula uses likes, comments, and shares. Saves still appear in the per-video data when available.

Does this work on private accounts?

You may see basic profile info, but public ER needs visible video data.

What does the AI analysis do?

It reads the fetched metrics and writes a short audit plus three experiments. It does not invent numbers.

Can I automate this for many creators?

No — this page is for manual checks. For pipelines, use the TikTok profile and videos API with your key.
