Updated 2026-08-05
This is the pool of Cross-border creators on TikTok within E-commerce / DTC — 20 of them. The narrower the niche, the higher the reply rate; searching broadly for "E-commerce / DTC creators" usually spends budget on audiences that do not overlap yours.

How this slice differs from the index as a whole
- Average authenticity is 45/100 against 54/100 index-wide — worth raising your authenticity floor before shortlisting.
- 0% publish an email or IM handle against 7% index-wide — more dependent on platform DMs, so outreach costs more here.
How to read these numbers: this covers creators indexed and validated inside Koinon Link, not every creator on the platform. Suspected bought-follower accounts are quarantined and excluded from the table above (shown separately). The authenticity score is our own anomaly detection over follower/engagement structure, not a platform-official metric. Figures update as collection continues.

Why this niche deserves its own view
"Cross-border" is defined by who the audience is and what job they do, not by what the creator posts about. Two creators can both cover AI tools while their audiences barely overlap — one talks to media buyers who care about creative and bids, the other to engineers who care about APIs and deployment. Searching by topic mixes them together; searching by audience function does not.
