TikTok scraping benchmark

We benchmarked three scraping tools on 500 TikTok videos each. Measured validation success rate and how many metadata fields they actually return.

Results show an interesting tradeoff. Bright Data achieved 99.6% validation rate with 41 metadata fields. Apify reached 99% with 27 fields. Decodo scored 94.8% with 48 fields.

Tools with higher validation rates generally returned moderate metadata field counts, while those extracting more fields showed slightly lower success rates. Each approach has different performance characteristics.
