    Steal the hook.

    Most viral-hook tools are built for creators selling mindset courses and protein powder. This one is built for the rest of us — founders, GTM operators, marketers. Paste a YouTube or Instagram link, get a full teardown: hook, format, narrative, retention drivers, CTA, plus 6+ content ideas tuned to your niche.

    Supports: YouTube Instagram

    What you get per video

    One paste. One permalink. Everything you need to steal the format without copying the content.

    Hook anatomy
    First 3 seconds, first 10 seconds, the pattern used, why it works, and a sharper rewrite.
    Format taxonomy
    Contrarian manifesto? Listicle? Founder POV? Teardown? Mapped to what actually works for B2B.
    Narrative arc
    Stage-by-stage timestamps, open loops, payoffs. Where the tension builds and where it releases.
    Retention drivers
    Pattern interrupts, callbacks, and predicted drop-off moments — each with a fix.
    CTA teardown
    The verbatim CTA, its type, effectiveness out of 10, and a rewrite that actually converts.
    Content ideas
    6–10 videos you could make using the same format, tuned to your niche — not generic creator fluff.
