Socialhose for TikTok Live investigations

The TikTok Investigator

When the stream ends, your evidence doesn't.

A TikTok Live stream is a financial event. Gifts move real money, senders form networks, and speech carries intent. Socialhose detects the broadcast, captures every transaction, records the stream, transcribes the speech, maps the money, scores the risk, and produces a case file.

Socialhose investigation dashboard tracking a live TikTok broadcast: diamond totals, total likes and chats, and a ranked list of top gift receivers

Live investigation overview · sample data

200 diamonds = $1 Every gift flow is converted to USD across ledgers, leaderboards, graphs, and exports.
Live detection Monitored subjects are checked for live status continuously.
One case file Subjects, sessions, ledgers, transcripts, triggers, notes, networks, and exports stay together.
The economy that keeps no records

A stream happens once. The money moves. The record disappears.

TikTok Live gifting is not symbolic. Viewers send diamonds that convert to cash, and coordinated accounts can move value through live broadcasts in real time. Socialhose turns that moment into a documented record: sender, recipient, gift type, diamond value, timestamp, speech, chat, viewer activity, and the network pattern that connects it.

A TikTok Live stream is a financial event with no paper trail. Socialhose is the paper trail.
Anatomy of an investigation

The investigation starts before the subject goes live.

The following traces a typical professional workflow through the platform. No real case, account, or individual is depicted.

1

Add subjects and trigger terms

Create an investigation, add subjects individually or in bulk, and set trigger terms in any language. Exact, fuzzy, and semantic matching runs across live chat and stream speech.

2

Capture begins when the subject is live

LIVE badges surface active broadcasts. Gift events, chat messages, likes, follows, shares, member joins, and viewer counts are logged in sequence while critical triggers can escalate by email.

3

The money layer takes shape

The gift ledger fills in real time. Leaderboards rank top gifters and receivers by diamonds, USD value, and gift count. The network graph scores edges for circular flows, fan-in, fan-out, rapid repeats, and high-value concentration.

4

The evidence lands after the stream

Watermarked HD recording, original-language transcript, English translation, confidence chips, captions, and a gift-and-trigger timeline all attach to the session record.

5

Analysis cites the record

AI transcript analysis identifies themes, narratives, calls-to-action, named entities, language notes, and risk observations. Every finding cites the exact transcript segment it came from.

6

Export the case file

CSV, PDF, PNG network exports, watermarked MP4 downloads, notes, and API access let investigators walk into the meeting with documented artifacts rather than reconstructed notes.

Capabilities

Three layers of the case file

Live chat and event capture feed showing gift, like, follow, and join events streaming in with timestamps

The stream is the crime scene. Be in it.

Account monitoring runs on a 2-minute live-detection cadence. The moment a subject broadcasts, Socialhose captures gift events, chat, engagement, viewer counts, trigger hits, and live speech signals.

Gift network risk view with diamonds received, risk flags for fan-in and high value, and top senders ranked by USD value

Follow the money. It is a ledger now.

Every diamond flow becomes a dollar-valued transaction record. Risk-scored network edges expose the patterns investigators look for.

circular flows rapid repeats fan-in fan-out high value
Completed live session record with diamond totals, unique gifters, peak viewers, stream recording, and a gift-and-trigger timeline

Walk in with a case file.

Watermarked MP4s, translated transcripts, confidence chips, AI analysis with segment citations, branded reports, network PNGs, CSV exports, notes, and API access stay attached to the investigation.

Built for documentation work

For teams that need a ledger, not a dashboard screenshot

Financial crime and AML

Capture transaction-level gift records, dollar-valued network graphs, risk flags, earnings intelligence, and exportable reports structured around a case file.

Trust and safety

Respond while the harm is live. Trigger alerts run against speech and chat, LIVE badges surface active sessions, and the documented record remains after the stream ends.

OSINT and investigative journalism

Follow subjects across months of activity with timelines, ledgers, transcripts, English translations, network graphs, and exports that trace every finding to a documented source.

Regulatory and law-enforcement-adjacent teams

Use watermarked recordings, timestamped transcripts, branded network exports with USD valuation, and organization-scoped access controls in accountable professional workflows.

FAQ

Questions investigators ask first

Can we cover this manually?

An analyst can watch one stream. They cannot watch ten subjects around the clock, log every transaction with timestamps, transcribe and translate the speech, and assemble the network math across months of sessions.

What does evidence-grade mean here?

It means artifacts are documented, timestamped, and traceable to the source. Recordings are watermarked, transcripts include confidence scores, and AI findings cite exact transcript segments.

Does this support Arabic and Farsi?

Yes. Transcription supports right-to-left scripts including Arabic, Farsi, Hebrew, and Urdu, with original-language text and English translation.

How does the data get into our case system?

Use CSV and PDF exports for reports, PNG exports for network analysis, watermarked MP4 downloads for recordings, and the org-scoped public API for integration workflows.

The stream is live right now.

When it ends, what did you capture? Socialhose detects, records, transcribes, and maps every broadcast from every monitored subject. The case file is already building.
