TikTok Notifications for Slack & Discord

Find out when any public TikTok account posts, without checking TikTok yourself.

TikTok was built for scrolling in the app, not for team workflows. There is no way to send a TikTok post notification to a Slack channel or a Discord server. So teams end up checking accounts manually, opening the app throughout the day, or hoping somebody remembers to look. Posts slip by. Responses come late.

Follow Bot watches public TikTok accounts for you and sends notifications straight to your team chat. You pick the accounts and pick the channel. When something new goes up, your team sees it in Slack, Discord, Telegram, or Microsoft Teams.

How it works

1. Install Follow Bot in your Slack workspace, Discord server, Telegram group, or Microsoft Teams channel. Takes about two minutes. No API keys or developer accounts needed.
2. Follow any public TikTok account with a single command. In Discord, type /follow tiktok khaby.lame. In Slack, use /follow and pick TikTok from the menu. The bot starts watching the account.
3. Get notified when they post. Follow Bot checks for new posts automatically. When the account publishes something, your channel gets a notification with the cover image, caption, and a link to the post on TikTok.

Who uses this

• Marketing teams tracking competitor TikTok accounts to catch campaigns, product launches, and messaging shifts early
• Agencies watching client accounts across multiple brands without opening each one separately
• Community managers following brand ambassadors and creators so they can engage with new content quickly
• PR teams keeping tabs on creators and media outlets that break stories on TikTok before anywhere else
• Fan communities following athletes, musicians, and creators so members hear about new posts right away
• E-commerce brands watching suppliers and partners to see how their products are being shown
• Recruiters following company accounts to keep an eye on competitor employer branding and culture posts

What you get

Each notification includes:

• The cover image from the video, shown inline
• The caption text from the post
• A direct link to the original post on TikTok
• The account name and profile picture
• The publish time in your local timezone

Slack shows these as attachment cards. Discord renders them as embeds with colored borders. Telegram sends the cover image as a photo message with the caption underneath. Teams uses Adaptive Cards.

Why not just use TikTok's own notifications?

TikTok notifications were made for individual users in the app on their personal phones. They don't work well for teams.

They go to one person. If your marketing team needs to see a competitor's post, every member has to follow the account individually and hope they spot the push notification in a pile of others.

You can't route them. There is no way to send a TikTok notification to a specific Slack channel or Discord server. You can't sort accounts into channels by topic, client, or team.

They disappear. Push notifications are gone once you dismiss them. With Follow Bot, notifications stay in your chat history. You can scroll back, search, and find old posts.

They only cover TikTok. If you also watch YouTube, X, or Instagram, those need separate setups. Follow Bot handles all of them from one place.

Works with your team chat

Follow Bot works the same way on all four. The notifications look different on each platform because they use each app's native formatting: embeds in Discord, Block Kit in Slack, photo messages in Telegram, Adaptive Cards in Teams.

Frequently asked questions

Can I monitor private TikTok accounts?
No. Follow Bot only works with public accounts. If an account is private, TikTok doesn't make its posts available to outside tools.

How often does it check for new posts?
Accounts are checked automatically on a recurring schedule, and new posts are delivered straight to your channel.

Does it work with TikTok videos and photo posts?
Yes. Follow Bot monitors the posts that appear on a creator's profile, including both videos and photo posts. Each notification links back to the original post on TikTok.

Can multiple channels follow the same account?
Yes. You can follow the same account in as many channels as you want, and each one gets its own copy of the notification.

What happens if I remove Follow Bot from my workspace?
Your subscription is cancelled automatically. No accounts are monitored after the bot is removed, and you won't be charged going forward.

Also monitors

Follow Bot also tracks Instagram, BlueSky, Twitch, Reddit, YouTube, and X. Same bot, same commands. You don't need a separate tool for each platform.
