✅ Free plan · nothing to connectWhat you'll see: Hook formats explained, three rewritten hooks and a one-hour shot list, for a made-up bakery.
Copy the prompt, paste it into one of the free AI apps below and press send. The sample is made up, so swap in your own details if you like.
I run Kedai Kek Mama, a home bakery that sells custom birthday cakes you can order the day before. Here are the opening lines of 6 short videos that did well for other bakeries: 1. 'POV: you forgot the birthday is tomorrow' 2. 'wait, you can order a custom cake TODAY?' 3. 'hot take: supermarket cakes are a scam' 4. 'things I'd never put on a cake as a baker' 5. 'before / after: plain sponge to unicorn cake' 6. 'girl to girl: this is the cake hack' Group them into hook formats, explain in one line why each works, and rewrite the best 3 for my bakery. Then write a one-hour home shot list for those 3 videos: on-screen text, what I film for the first 2 seconds, and the product shot after it.

🧰 Before you start
- Claude Pro (the free plan can try the hook research on a few pasted examples)
- Your phone and a screen recording of your product or app
- Links to 20-50 short videos that did well in your niche (or let Claude help find them)
- A scheduler for posting (Postiz, Buffer or the apps' own schedulers)
🪜 Step by step
- 1☐
Collect videos that worked
Save links to short videos in your niche from the last 6 months with lots of views or saves. Older hooks get copied and wear out fast.
- 2☐
Let Claude sort the hooks
In a Claude Project (a saved workspace), paste the links or their opening lines and use the 'Hook formats' prompt. Claude groups them into formats like 'POV: …', 'wait, you don't have to…?' or before/after.
- 3☐
Read the comments too
Copy the top comments from a competitor's popular video into Claude. Questions people ask there make great hooks if your product answers them.
- 4☐
Get a shot list
Use the 'Shot list' prompt. For each video you get the on-screen line, what to film (2-3 seconds of your reaction, then the product) and the sound to use.
- 5☐
Film for one hour
Film 20-30 short takes in one go: reactions, before/after, product in use. You don't need a studio; the hook matters more than the background.
- 6☐
Pick the best takes
Upload your takes (or stills from them) and ask Claude to choose the best 2-3 seconds of each and say why. Edit in CapCut or your phone's editor, adding short step captions.
- 7☐
Check for private details
Before posting, check every screen recording frame by frame for names, photos or messages you didn't mean to show.
- 8☐
Schedule safely
Use the 'Posting plan' prompt, then load the plan into your scheduler: 1-2 posts a day per new account, hours apart, a unique caption each time.
- 9☐
Optional: keep the winners
Rate each video 'keep' or 'drop' after a few days. Make new versions of the winners and give the best formats to paid creators later as a clear brief.

💬 Copy-paste prompts
Tap Copy prompt, paste it into your AI (Grok, ChatGPT, Claude or Gemini), then replace the [yellow bits] with your own details.
I sell [product] to [audience]. Below are the opening lines and descriptions of short videos from the last 6 months that did well in my niche: [paste opening lines, view counts and a one-line description of each] Group them into hook formats (for example 'POV: …', 'wait, you don't have to…?', before/after, 'hot take:'). For each format: what it is, why it works, the best 2 examples, and 3 versions rewritten for my product. Then tell me which 5 formats to film first and why.
Turn these 5 hooks into a shot list I can film at home in one hour: [paste hooks]. For each video give: the on-screen text, what I film for the first 2-3 seconds (my reaction or action), the product shot or screen recording that follows, a short caption for each step, and the kind of sound to use. Group shots that use the same spot or outfit so I move as little as possible.I have [number] finished videos and these accounts: [list platforms and how old each account is]. Make a 2-week posting plan: 1-2 posts a day per new account, at least 4 hours apart, never the same video twice on the same platform, a unique caption for each post with the brand name once, 2-4 hashtags that change each time, and one real question at the end. Output a table I can copy into my scheduler.
⚠️ Tips & common mistakes
- The hook decides how a video does far more than who's in it, so don't wait to feel photogenic.
- Posting the same file or caption again and again can get your reach cut: keep every caption unique and spread posts out.
- A video with few views usually just failed its first test, not a ban. Look at how all your posts are doing, not one.
- Check every screen recording for private photos, names or messages before it goes out.
