TikTok Already Has a Shield.
We Sharpen It.
Every creator has access to keyword filtering. Most don't use it effectively. We provide the intelligence—culturally-aware, Amharic-capable, community-tested—to make TikTok's built-in protection actually work for you.
Free to start • No automation yet • Manual CSV import
TikTok's Keyword Filter: Already Built-In
Every TikTok account has access to powerful comment filtering. The problem? TikTok doesn't tell you which keywords to use.
Settings Path
Profile → Menu (☰) → Settings → Privacy → Comments → Filter Keywords
✓ What It Does
- •Automatically hides comments with your keywords
- •Works instantly across all your videos
- •Commenter doesn't know they're blocked
- •Free, built-in, no API needed
✗ The Limitation
- •Blank text field—you guess keywords
- •No Amharic support or cultural context
- •Miss slang variations and coded insults
- •No guidance on what to block
We Don't Replace TikTok's Filter. We Supercharge It.
| Feature | TikTok Alone | TikTok + Endewerde |
|---|---|---|
| Keyword Source | Guess yourself | Community-tested database |
| Amharic Support | English only | Amharic + Latin + Mixed |
| Cultural Context | Generic | Ethiopian-specific patterns |
| Keyword Optimization | 100 random words | 100 priority-ranked terms |
| Updates | Manual, no guidance | Monthly refresh as slang evolves |
| Protection Rate | ~30-40% | ~60-75% |
How It Actually Works (No Automation Yet)
We're honest about what we do and don't do. Here's the complete workflow.
We Provide Intelligence
- • Community screenshot collection
- • Keyword extraction & variations
- • Cultural context classification
- • CSV formatting for TikTok
- • Priority ranking
TikTok Executes Blocking
- • Real-time comment scanning
- • Instant hiding of matches
- • 99.9% uptime infrastructure
- • Author notification suppression
- • Global reliability
You Maintain Control
- • Monthly CSV import (2 min)
- • Manual deletion of slip-throughs
- • Feedback on what we miss
- • Adjust for your niche
- • Full transparency
What We Can't Do Yet (And When We Will)
We believe in transparency. Here's what's missing and our roadmap.
No Real-Time Blocking
Toxic comments visible until you manually import updated CSV
→ Q3 2026: Business API integration
Mobile-Only Import
Must use phone app, not desktop; 10-minute friction
→ Dependent on TikTok opening desktop import
No Analytics on Blocked Comments
We estimate effectiveness, don't know exactly what TikTok filtered
→ Q2 2026: User reporting feature
Monthly Manual Refresh
Protection degrades as new slang emerges between updates
→ Partial: Weekly database updates; Full: API automation
Who Should Wait vs. Start Now
If you need immediate, automatic, 24/7 protection, we cannot provide that today. You need TikTok Business Account + third-party API tool ($50-200/month).
If you can accept weekly maintenance for 60-75% protection, we are your best option for Ethiopian-specific moderation.
Exactly What You Do (No Surprises)
The complete workflow from export to protection. Takes 15 minutes total.
Browse & Customize (3 minutes)
- →Select categories relevant to your content type
- →System optimizes for TikTok's 100-keyword limit
- →Preview final list before export
Download CSV (30 seconds)
- →CSV formatted for TikTok's exact import requirements
- →Includes priority ranking (High = block immediately)
- →Filename includes date for version tracking
Import to TikTok (10 minutes, manual)
This is the friction point we don't hide:
- Open TikTok mobile app (not desktop—TikTok restricts this)
- Profile → Menu (☰) → Settings → Privacy → Comments → Filter Keywords
- Tap "Import" (if available; some regions lack this—see workaround)
- Select downloaded CSV from file manager
- Verify import success (check keyword count matches)
- Enable "Filter all comments" toggle
If Import Button Missing:
Some TikTok versions hide this feature. Workaround: Manually copy-paste keywords from CSV into TikTok's text field (100 terms max). We provide copy-paste formatted list as backup.
Maintain (15 minutes monthly)
- →Return to Endewerde Side
- →Check "New This Week" for emerging toxic patterns
- →Download updated CSV
- →Re-import to TikTok (replace old list)
Manual But Meaningful: Why Ethiopian Creators Use Us
You Don't Know What You Don't Know
Harassment evolves. Yesterday's "neger" becomes today's "n3g3r" or coded emoji combinations. Our community catches patterns across hundreds of accounts.
Example: "2000 birr lol" seems like price discussion. Our database flags this as price-shaming attack pattern #47, used to undermine Ethiopian e-commerce creators.
Language Complexity
TikTok's filter is exact-match. You need every variation. We maintain 15-40 variations per base term.
| Base Term | Variations |
|---|---|
| scam | sc@m, s.c.a.m, scamm, s-c-a-m |
| neger | n3ger, neeger, n.e.g.e.r |
| fake | f@ke, f a k e, f4ke, fαke |
Categorization Intelligence
Not all toxic comments deserve the same response. Our severity system reduces false positives.
Block Immediately
Direct threats, slurs, severe harassment
Flag for Review
Borderline cases, contextual insults
Monitor Only
Controversial but not clearly toxic

Questions Answered Honestly
Does this automatically hide comments?▼
No. Not yet. Today we provide optimized keyword lists you manually import to TikTok's native filter. Phase 3 (Q3 2026) will add true automation for Business accounts.
Why can't you automate now?▼
TikTok restricts API access to Business accounts only. Most Ethiopian creators have Personal accounts. We're building community value first, then API integration when you convert to Business (free, 2 minutes).
Is this free forever?▼
Database access and CSV export remain free. Advanced features (extension, API automation) will be Pro tier. Early users get locked pricing.
How do I know it's working?▼
TikTok doesn't tell you what comments were filtered. We estimate based on keyword match rates. In Phase 2, our extension will show you real-time blocking data. In Phase 3, API provides exact metrics.
What payment methods do you accept?▼
When Pro tier launches: Telebirr, CBE Birr, and M-Pesa. No credit card required. All payments processed securely with instant verification.
