Nearly all of TikTok's algorithmic reach traces back to the opening seconds. Generating 15 hooks across different psychological triggers gives you a real testing pool, and the 'must resolve' rule ensures the hook sets up a payoff instead of overpromising.
How to customize it
- Film the same content with different hooks to find what lands.
- Make sure the video delivers on the hook's promise.
- Say the hook out loud — awkward phrasing kills retention.
Tip: replace the parts in [square brackets] with your own details before you send. The more specific you are — audience, tone, goal, constraints — the better the AI output.
