TikTok Market Scope: Your source for actionable audience insights

May 13, 2026

Discover more ways to grow your business with our first-party analytics platform that helps you identify, understand and activate your audiences across every stage of the funnel on TikTok.

TikTok Market Scope

We've all faced the challenge of identifying our most valuable audiences, understanding how they move through the funnel, and uncovering which types of content truly influence their decisions. That's why we built TikTok Market Scope, a powerful insights and analytics tool that shows who your brand is reaching and how they're engaging with your content.


Think of it as your full-funnel command center, combining paid, organic, and branded data to reveal where audiences are in their decision-making journey, from awareness to consideration to conversion. It helps brands understand the shift from "I've never heard of you" to "I'm considering you" to "I'm buying right now," while uncovering the types of content that affect those decisions.


With TikTok Market Scope, you get:

  • A unified view of your brand's paid and organic content performance, powered by a data-driven framework.

  • Access to data-backed insights to learn exactly where your audiences are on their decision-making journey.

  • Behavioral insights to understand what influences high-intent audiences, guiding them from brand discovery to action.

  • Industry insights tailored to your vertical.

  • Market insights with brand performance data to better understand how to fuel your bottom line with the right media solutions.


Taken together, these insights provide a clearer picture of your brand's consideration audiences—those who demonstrate strong interest. Measurement platform InMarket analyzed retail campaigns on TikTok and found that consideration audiences over-indexed on store visits (1.8x) and sales response (1.5x),¹ while Circana's analysis of CPG campaigns revealed that consideration audiences drove 4.2x higher incremental sales than awareness audiences, and 4.4x higher incremental sales than untapped audiences.²


Latest updates


TikTok Market Scope is evolving to provide greater industry-level context and insights to help brands better move audiences from awareness to consideration to conversion.


Upgraded Brand Perception module

The Brand Perception module has been updated with new capabilities that help brands spot emerging trends, understand competitor activity, and identify untapped demand within their category. These insights give marketers a clearer view of which products and themes are gaining traction, how they connect to performance, and where additional investment may drive greater impact.


By combining market context with competitive and content-level insights, Brand Perception helps brands make more informed decisions on TikTok. Marketers can use these insights to prioritize stronger content opportunities, allocate budget more efficiently, and evaluate post-campaign performance with greater precision.


Tentpole Strategy

Tentpole Strategy is a new sub-module within the Brand Perception tab that surfaces traffic trends and key tentpole moments (Black Friday, Back to School, etc.) to help internal teams and clients align campaign timing, maximize product exposure, and optimize budget allocation for more effective pre-planning and growth.


Customers without Tentpole Strategy rely on manual planning for key events using industry reports or past campaign data. This limits access to real-time audience behavior and insights. With Tentpole Strategy, advertisers can view traffic trends, search spikes, and content performance, enabling earlier, more informed planning.


Two distinct audience funnels for TikTok Shop and web

Previously, brands could only view one purchase path at a time—either TikTok Shop* or web payments. This resulted in an incomplete picture of how people moved across the two paths. Now, TikTok Market Scope displays two distinct views on a single dashboard: one for in-app purchases through TikTok Shop and one for website conversions. This provides a clearer view of how TikTok drives demand both in-app and off-platform, helping you plan, invest, and optimize with the full picture in mind.

E-commerce insights

Market Scope's e-commerce insights capabilities have been enhanced to provide a more holistic view of performance. This helps brands and sales teams optimize growth on and off TikTok with data-driven strategies and expand visibility into open-loop e-commerce, providing a more complete picture of business impact.


The expanded insight dimensions include:

  • Buyer Analysis: Deeper understanding of customer cohorts and purchase behavior.

  • Competitive Landscape: A clearer view of market share and competitor performance.

  • Store Diagnosis: Actionable insights to optimize TikTok Shop presence.

  • Livestream Performance: Granular analysis of livestreaming effectiveness.


IP-level audience insights for theatrical brands

Theatrical advertisers can now see funnel movement at the individual movie or show (IP) level in TikTok Market Scope. That means studios can track awareness, consideration, and ticket purchases per title, and better spot momentum and funnel drop-off by release.


Improved industry analysis

Industry Analysis helps brands understand TikTok user behavior within their category, including trends, audience movement, and competitive context. For telco brands, a new User Migration Analysis reveals how many users switched from competitors to your brand, and where those gains came from. This telco view is the first in a series of industry-specific modules, with versions for mobile phone and commerce brands coming soon.

Brand Consideration ads


Powered by TikTok Market Scope, Brand Consideration is a mid-funnel objective in TikTok Ads Manager that helps you build and scale your consideration audiences. It's designed to optimize for high-intent users who demonstrate strong brand interest through behaviors like sharing, liking, commenting, searching, or repeatedly watching your videos. By tapping into these signals, Brand Consideration helps you bridge the gap between awareness and conversion, activating engaged audiences and moving them down the funnel.


Optimized for consideration and attention

The Brand Consideration objective balances cost per consideration with 6-second view-through rate, helping brands reach high-intent audiences who are also more likely to watch. This means Brand Consideration ads balance attention and intent, helping advertisers drive stronger mid-funnel performance and unlock full-funnel strategies.


Traffic integration

Consideration signals are also available within the Traffic objective in TikTok Ads Manager. Advertisers can toggle on consideration signals, allowing traffic campaigns to prioritize consideration audiences. The signals include cost per consideration and cost per new buyer, which optimizes for people who haven't purchased from the brand in the past 180 days.
