Requests to Reddit are deliberately paced — roughly 0.6 seconds between fetches — because the site does not tolerate being hammered. A large album therefore takes longer here than the file sizes alone suggest. That pacing is a feature; without it the whole extractor gets blocked. Reddit is one of the few platforms wired into both routes at once, because its posts and its streams are genuinely different things. Reddit is one of the broader integrations here — 7 distinct link shapes are handled rather than a single canonical one. Reddit supports signed-in sessions upstream, which is precisely how it hides private material; we browse anonymously, so that material stays hidden.
Use whichever is quicker: the field above, or tikt.com/ ahead of the Reddit link:
tikt.com/https://www.example.com/path/to/media
A post link and a stream link are both fine here — they take different paths internally and you do not have to care which.
The URL shape decides the route: album-style Reddit links go to the gallery extractor, stream-style links to the media extractor.
A post can return several files and a stream returns one. Either way nothing was re-encoded on the way through.
Convert URLs into downloadable assets via a precise REST interface. Extract video, audio, and image streams with deterministic responses and process at scale.
import requests
response = requests.post(
"https://api.tikt.com/api/download",
headers={"Authorization": "API_KEY"},
json={"url": "URL"},
)
for item in response.json()["items"]:
print(item["type"], item["url"])
Tikt.com does not retain downloaded files or log user activity. All media is processed in a stateless pipeline and transmitted directly to the requesting device.
