TikTok deliberately hides per-live earnings from viewers — and even from smaller creators studying bigger ones. The numbers you'd want (diamonds per minute, USD converted, net after TikTok's 50% cut) aren't in the native app. Here's how to get them for any public live, without a TikTok login or the creator's permission.
- Step 01
Find the creator's @handle
Pick the creator you want to track. Copy their @handle from their TikTok profile URL (everything after tiktok.com/@). You don't need to follow them.
- Step 02
Paste the handle into TikMonitor
Sign in to TikMonitor and add the @handle to your watched creators. TikMonitor will start listening the next time they open a live. No TikTok account access required on either side.
- Step 03
Watch the diamond counter
When they go live, the dashboard shows real-time diamonds earned, updated every event. Each diamond is worth about $0.005 USD at TikTok's published rate.
- Step 04
Convert to USD (with the 50/50 split)
TikMonitor does the math automatically: diamonds × $0.005 = gross USD, then × 0.5 = creator's net after TikTok's platform cut. Both numbers update live as gifts land.
- Step 05
Export for reporting (Pro only)
Upgrade to Pro ($9.99/mo) to export a session's full event log to CSV — every gift, every chat, every timestamp — for your own spreadsheets or client reports.
Is it legal to track someone else's public TikTok Live earnings?
Yes. TikMonitor reads the same public WebSocket stream TikTok sends to every viewer. No scraping, no login, no private data. It's equivalent to you watching the stream yourself and counting diamonds manually — just automated.
How accurate is the USD conversion?
Diamonds × $0.005 uses TikTok's published rate. Actual payouts vary slightly by region and platform (iOS vs Android coin pricing). Expect the number to be accurate within a few percent for most creators.
Can I track more than one creator?
Yes. Starter ($4.99/mo) covers up to 3 creators. Pro ($9.99/mo) is unlimited.
