Ask HN: Restream.io but for TikTok?

I really need a way to stream to TikTok from OBS / any RTMP streaming software and seems like the big players in this space don't offer it.

They want users to use their own app. You might get some insight from this unofficial API though: https://github.com/szdc/tiktok-api

yep saw that, was hoping someone already put it into a product of some kind

No one will support TikTok without official support from them. They could change something one day and a whole lot of work would be for nothing. I also don't know if that unofficial API would even work, if I'd designed the TikTok app it would be using a special handshake, tokens or a specific user agent to enforce only allowing streams from the official app.
