# TikTok MCP Server: Schedule TikToks from Claude or ChatGPT **Source:** https://posteverywhere.ai/mcp/tiktok --- TikTok Content Posting API # TikTok MCP Server **PostEverywhere runs a hosted MCP server at `https://mcp.posteverywhere.ai`, and TikTok is one of the 11 platforms it publishes to.** A TikTok MCP server lets an AI assistant schedule uploads to TikTok through the official TikTok Content Posting API. You connect the account once, then describe the caption and timing and let the assistant queue it. TikTok is the strictest platform we support for programmatic access, and that is the point of using an official integration. The Content Posting API is the only sanctioned route for scheduled uploads, and access to it is granted per-application. Tools that automate TikTok another way tend to break or risk the account. It is included on every plan from [$29/mo](https://posteverywhere.ai/pricing), alongside the [REST API](https://posteverywhere.ai/social-media-api). If you would rather schedule TikTok from a dashboard, that is our [TikTok scheduler](https://posteverywhere.ai/tiktok-scheduler). ## Connect it to your assistant One URL, no separate TikTok credentials to manage. Connect the server once and every platform you have authorised, including TikTok, becomes available to the assistant.

You describe the outcome and the assistant calls the tools: “Schedule this vertical video to TikTok with a caption about scheduling posts from Claude, add 4 relevant hashtags, and post it Thursday at 7pm New York time. Cross-post the same clip to Instagram as a Reel.” ## TikTok specifics worth knowing ### Video only TikTok has no text or image-only post type. Every upload needs a video file, so the assistant needs media before it can schedule anything. ### Keep hashtags in plain text TikTok classifies topics from caption text. Styled Unicode fonts in captions or hashtags make them invisible to that classifier, so keep them plain. ### Official API access is the safe route The Content Posting API is TikTok's sanctioned path for scheduled uploads. Automation outside it risks the account, which is why PostEverywhere uses the official integration. ## TikTok MCP server FAQs ### What is a TikTok MCP server? An MCP server that exposes TikTok publishing as tools an AI assistant can call, so Claude or ChatGPT can schedule videos for you. PostEverywhere publishes through the official TikTok Content Posting API. ### Can I schedule TikToks in advance? Yes. Give a time and timezone in the prompt and the upload publishes itself through the official API. ### Can it post images or text to TikTok? No. TikTok uploads require a video file, so the assistant needs media attached before it can schedule. ### Is automating TikTok safe for my account? Through the official Content Posting API, yes. That is TikTok's sanctioned route for scheduled uploads. Tools that automate TikTok outside it risk the account. ### Can the same video go to Reels and Shorts too? Yes. One instruction can send the same vertical clip to TikTok, Instagram as a Reel and YouTube as a Short. ## Publish to TikTok from your assistant The hosted MCP server, the REST API and all 33 tools are included on every plan. Starter is $29/mo with a 7-day trial; a card is required and there is no free plan.
