## How to call it through Zero

Zero handles the 402 payment challenge and records the run. With the Zero CLI installed (`npm i -g @zeroxyz/cli`):

```sh
zero fetch --capability stablesocial-tiktok-video-transcript-2b8d03cb -d '<json body>'
```

Example prompt: Can you get me the English transcript of this TikTok video: https://www.tiktok.com/@user/video/1234567890 — use AI as a fallback if captions aren't available.

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need to extract spoken text from a TikTok video without managing authentication, subscriptions, or API keys. It is ideal for one-off or pay-as-you-go transcript extraction, especially when you need multilingual support or AI fallback for videos without native captions. Prefer it over general transcription services when working specifically with TikTok URLs and wanting a single-step solution without video downloading.

## Known failure modes

- Video URL is invalid or private — returns an error with no transcript
- Native captions not found and AI fallback not enabled — returns empty or error response
- Unsupported language code provided — may return error or default language result
- AI fallback invoked but video exceeds supported length limit — fallback fails
- Payment not processed (x402 flow failure) — request not fulfilled
- Rate limits or service downtime on StableSocial backend — timeout or 503 error

## How this service works

Pay-per-request access to social media data from TikTok, Instagram, Facebook, Reddit, and LinkedIn. No auth, no subscriptions.

## Output

Returns the spoken transcript text of the specified TikTok video, segmented or as a full string, in the requested language. If native captions are unavailable and AI fallback is enabled, AI-generated transcription is returned instead.
