TikTok outreach for UGC agencies

Hooka lets UGC agencies prospect brands and creators on TikTok at scale: scrape up to 5,000 targeted handles per job, rotate personalized DMs across up to 10 connected accounts with safe daily caps, and work every reply from one unified inbox. Pricing is per connected account — $89/month, down to $79 with volume — so it scales the way an agency does.

Why does manual TikTok prospecting stop scaling?

Because one human with one account hits three walls fast: per-account DM limits, a single unanswered message request per non-follower, and replies scattered across phones. The typical agency motion — a founder or SDR searching niches and pitching profiles one by one — tops out around 20–30 DMs a day.

Community-estimated limits (TikTok publishes none) put new accounts at roughly 10–20 DMs/day and established ones at 40–60. A non-follower also sees only one message request from you until they accept or reply — burn it on a generic pitch and that brand is gone.

Then there is the inbox problem. The brand answers on the founder's phone, the creator answers on an SDR's spare account, nobody marks who is interested, and deals die in unread requests. Hooka removes all three walls without burning the accounts doing the work.

How does a UGC agency run outreach with Hooka?

Five steps: scrape, personalize, rotate, reply, measure. The whole pipeline runs from one dashboard — no phones, no spreadsheets of half-sent pitches.

Scrape where your prospects already are Pull the followers (or following) of complementary brands and niche leaders — up to 5,000 handles per job, streamed in batches of 50. Or import the CSV your team already has; it gets validated and deduped into one master lead list.
Build one campaign with personalized variants Up to 20 message variants per step, each using {{handle}}, {{username}} or arbitrary per-recipient variables like {{first_name}} via CSV or the API targets payload. Add up to 10 follow-up steps with 1–60 day delays — a reply always stops the sequence automatically.
Rotate sends across the team's accounts Sender rotation spreads one campaign across up to 10 connected accounts. Each account claims the next pending target atomically, sends up to 100 DMs/day per account (spaced naturally, the platform hard cap — user-configurable, start lower on new accounts and ramp up) with 7-second spacing, configurable 3–300s and enforced server-side.
Let SDRs work the replies in one place The unified inbox shows every conversation from every account in one panel — statuses, server-side search and quick-reply templates. New replies arrive through a 3-second fast-pass loop, so nobody answers a hot brand lead six hours late.

Does per-account pricing work for agencies?

Yes — it is the same per-sender model agencies already know from LinkedIn tools, applied to TikTok. As of June 2026, Hooka costs $89 per connected TikTok account per month, with volume discounts down to $79/account; the reached tier price applies to all your accounts, not just the marginal one.

Self-serve covers up to 10 accounts. Past that, the Custom plan adds white-label and dedicated onboarding — built for agencies running outreach for several clients under their own brand. Everything is month-to-month through Stripe, cancel anytime. The full tier table is on the pricing page.

Connecting team accounts is QR-only: scan a code from a live Chrome session and you are in. Hooka never sees or stores passwords — session cookies only, deleted when you disconnect — and reconnecting a dropped account does not consume an extra seat.

How does Hooka protect your agency's reputation?

By making sure no brand gets pitched twice and every opt-out sticks. Cross-campaign dedup is on by default: if your skincare campaign already DM'd a brand, your supplements campaign skips it automatically, with skipped counts shown per batch.

The user-level Do-Not-Contact blacklist is always enforced, and inbound replies like “stop” or “unsubscribe” add the sender to it automatically. Follow-ups only go to leads who have not replied — checked against real inbox messages every 60 seconds.

Account health is monitored too: pending, connected, cooldown, disconnected, banned. If an account drops, its campaigns auto-pause and you get an email plus a webhook — no zombie account half-sending sequences in a client's name.

TikTok has no official API for sending cold DMs — every true outbound tool, Hooka included, operates outside it, and automation always carries real risk of account restrictions. Hooka minimizes that risk with up to 100 DMs/day per account (spaced naturally — TikTok tolerates this volume per account when sends are paced out; 100 is the platform hard cap and it's user-configurable), server-side spacing, rotation and human-like pacing, and pauses sends for exactly 5 minutes when TikTok signals “sending too fast”. No method removes ban risk: use dedicated outreach accounts, not your agency's main brand account, and start lower on brand-new accounts and ramp up.

Frequently asked questions

How many TikTok accounts can one campaign rotate across?

Up to 10 connected accounts per campaign. Targets are never pre-split: each account claims the next pending lead atomically, so healthier, faster accounts naturally absorb more volume. Above 10 accounts, Hooka offers a Custom plan with white-label and dedicated onboarding.

Can my whole team work replies from one inbox?

Yes. The unified inbox shows conversations from every connected account in one panel, with statuses (unread, interested, not interested, archived), server-side search and quick-reply templates. New replies land through a 3-second fast-pass loop, so SDRs answer while the lead is still warm.

Will two campaigns ever pitch the same brand twice?

Not by default. Cross-campaign dedup is on by default, so a handle already contacted by one campaign is skipped by the others, with skipped counts shown per batch. A user-level Do-Not-Contact blacklist is always enforced, and replies like “stop” or “unsubscribe” add the sender to it automatically.

How do I personalize DMs at scale?

Each campaign step supports up to 20 message variants, and every message can use {{handle}}, {{username}}, {{my_handle}} plus arbitrary per-recipient variables like {{first_name}} pushed via CSV or the API targets payload (up to 1,000 handles per batch). The variant index is recorded per DM, so A/B analytics show which pitch gets replies.

What does Hooka cost for an agency?

Hooka is priced per connected TikTok account: $89/account/month base, with volume discounts down to $79/account — the reached tier price applies to all your accounts. Self-serve covers up to 10 accounts; beyond that there is a Custom plan. Month-to-month, cancel anytime, as of June 2026.
