Frequently asked questions
What file should I export, and where is it in Backstage?
In TikTok LIVE Backstage, open Analytics → Creator data, select a month-to-date period and export the creator data as .xlsx. Menu wording can vary by region. The file should include Creator's username, Data Period, Diamonds, Last month diamonds, Valid go LIVE days and LIVE duration. Manage creators exports with L30D columns also work, with no projection or last-month comparison.
Is my data uploaded?
No. Your file never leaves your browser. Parsing and calculations run locally, and clearing results or leaving the page removes the report from this tool. Usage analytics records only the creator count and whether you used an upload or sample; it does not include file contents or creator names.
How do creator tiers work?
Tiers are determined by monthly diamonds using TikTok's March 2026 fee policy. Tier 1 begins at zero and Tier 10 begins at 8 million diamonds. The table below lists every threshold. The analyzer shows the tier earned by recorded diamonds and the tier implied by projected month-end pace.
What do rank up, maintain and drop mean?
Rank up means the projected tier is higher than last month's tier; maintain means the tiers match; drop means the projected tier is lower. The 80% retention rule is a separate bonus check. A creator can maintain their tier but still fail retention and be flagged at risk.
How accurate is the estimate?
Estimated. Based on TikTok's March 2026 fee policy. Your actual payout depends on TikTok's final numbers. Diamond projections assume the export's daily pace continues for the full month. Bonus values show approximate USD alongside the policy engine's diamond figures. Converted at {conversionRate} per diamond. Estimate only. Includes only rank and recorded activeness. Network benchmarks, regional incentives and graduation or scouting adjustments are excluded.
How are month-end diamonds projected?
Recorded diamonds are divided by the number of days in Data Period, including both start and end, then multiplied by the number of days in that month. A September 1–13 export uses 13 elapsed days and 30 days in the month. Remaining-day targets use the export cutoff, not today's date. Missing or invalid periods leave projections unknown.
How is activeness calculated?
An activeness level requires all three targets: diamonds, valid LIVE days and LIVE hours. The analyzer uses recorded activity to show the highest reached level and what is missing for the next. It holds that level constant in the bonus estimate and does not assume future days or hours.
