We aim to surpass the high expectations our community and stakeholders rightly have for us so we can continue to serve everyone who creates, connects, and is entertained on TikTok. We’ve been listening to feedback from different communities of researchers, academics, and experts, and are today sharing new initiatives to strengthen transparency and accountability of our platform.

• Providing API access to research the TikTok platform.
• Providing API access to research our moderation system.
• Deepening information sharing with our Content and Safety Advisory Councils.
• Expanding our transparency reports with information about countering covert influence operations.
