# TikTok Research

TikTok content and creator intelligence through SandBase. Search videos, analyze creator profiles, track hashtag performance, discover trending content, and research live streams. Read [the API map](references/sandbase-api-map.md) before selecting a capability.

## Call SandBase capabilities

## Operating principles

- Use TikTok data for content research and market intelligence only.
