The press behind a TikTok verification
TikTok’s verified badge rewards brands the press takes seriously. I build the independent editorial coverage that backs a strong verification case.
Real outlets, real journalists, the kind of coverage a platform recognizes.
What TikTok looks for
Verification favors brands covered by real, independent media. Not ads, not press releases. Editorial coverage in outlets with their own standing. That is the coverage I pitch for.
Where I come in
I find the angle, pitch the right reporters, and build a footprint of genuine coverage in credible outlets. The kind that makes a verification application hard to ignore.
What I don't promise
I can’t promise a badge. Nobody honest can. The decision sits with TikTok. What I control is the coverage that strengthens your case, and you pay per placement that lands.

How it runs
1. Read the footprint.
I map what TikTok’s reviewers can see about you today. Coverage, mentions, and the gaps.
2. Find the angle.
Not the badge. The story a reporter would run without being asked.
3. Pitch and place.
You get the coverage and the footprint it builds. You pay when it lands.
Independent coverage is what the review actually weighs.
What it costs
Coverage is priced by publication tier. Bigger outlet, higher price. You pay when a placement lands, so no retainer runs while nothing happens.
Questions
No. The decision sits with TikTok and nobody outside TikTok controls it. What we control is the coverage that strengthens your case.
Not the same way. The review favours independent editorial. A wire release is something you published about yourself.
You keep the coverage. It keeps working for search, for AI answers, and for the next application.
