TikTok video finder: find the original TikTok and its creator

Reverse Video Search Tool finds the original TikTok behind a repost, a stitched clip or a screenshot. Upload what you have and our visual AI returns the creator's account, the earliest upload we find and the reposts we find on TikTok, Instagram Reels, YouTube Shorts and other platforms.

Drop a video or screenshot

MP4, MOV, WebM, GIF, JPG, PNG · up to 200 MB ·
or paste a YouTube link
Spotted a copy on TikTok or Instagram? Drop the saved video or a quick screen recording to find the original and every repost.

What a reverse TikTok search finds

  • The creator. The account that posted the earliest upload we find, with a direct link.
  • The original post. The full, unedited version — before captions, stitches or watermarks were added by reposters.
  • Cross-platform copies. The same video on Reels, Shorts, X and Facebook.
  • A proof report. Links and dates in one place, ready for a credit request or a takedown.

How to do a reverse TikTok search

  1. Save the TikTok. Download the video, or take a screen recording or screenshot.
  2. Upload it. Drop the file in the box above.
  3. Follow the trail. Open the creator's original post, then review where else the video appears.

For creators: find who reposted your TikTok

Upload your own video to see the accounts that reposted it on TikTok and other platforms. Each result shows the account, the platform and the date, so you can ask for credit or file a report with the evidence already collected.

For viewers: find the TikTok you saw

Saw a TikTok on Instagram or in a group chat? Upload it to reach the creator's original post and full video.

Why TikToks travel

According to Pew Research Center, 31% of U.S. adults used TikTok in its 2026 survey. In a separate Pew Research Center survey, 59% of Americans said they get news from social media often or sometimes. A popular TikTok is easy to save and post again on Reels, Shorts or X, so finding the original creator means looking beyond TikTok itself.

FAQ

Is there a TikTok video search engine that searches by video?

Yes. Reverse Video Search Tool searches by the video itself: upload a TikTok clip or a screenshot and it finds the original TikTok and its creator, with no keywords needed.

How do I find the original creator of a TikTok?

Upload the TikTok, a repost of it or a screenshot. The results show the account that posted the earliest upload we find and link to the original post.

Can I find a TikTok from a screenshot?

Yes. Upload the screenshot and the AI matches it to the TikTok it came from.

How do I find out who reposted my TikTok?

Upload your video. The results list the reposts we find on TikTok, Instagram, YouTube and other platforms, with account names and dates.

Does it work if the watermark was removed?

Yes. The search runs on the video itself, so it works with or without a watermark.

Is there a TikTok video search engine for clips?

Yes — Reverse Video Search Tool searches by the video, not by keywords.

Reverse video search questions

What is reverse video search?

Reverse video search starts from a video or a screenshot instead of a text query and looks for the same footage elsewhere on the web. Creators use it to find reposts of their videos; anyone can use it to find where a clip came from.

How do I find who reposted my video?

Upload the video or paste its YouTube link and run the search. The report lists the copies we found, grouped by platform and sorted by upload date, so you can see where your video was reposted and which upload came first.

Can I use the report for a takedown?

Yes. The report gives you what a takedown form asks for: a link to each copy, its upload date and side-by-side proof next to your original. You file the notice with the platform in your own name, and the report is your evidence.

Does it find copies with new captions, edits or watermarks?

Yes. We match the scenes themselves, so copies with new captions, edits or watermarks are found too. A longer clip gives more scenes to match.

What do I pay for?

Your first search is free. A search is only used when we find matches for you. Plans start at $9.99 a month, or you can buy a search pack without a subscription.

Is my upload kept?

Your upload is used only for your search and deleted right after. Reports are kept so you can open them again from your history.
