Shorts Hook Lab — Title, Hook & Retention Beats

What you send

• Your topic, product, or clip idea
• Your target length, if you have one (defaults to 45 seconds if you don't specify)

What you get back

• A title that earns the tap before autoplay, an opening hook, and a script with pattern-interrupt beats placed where Shorts viewers most often swipe away
• 3 title options built for the feed, not just the video
• 5+ hook variants tagged by type, with on-screen text and spoken line
• A full script with explicit @15s and @30s retention-beat markers, a loop-friendly ending, a description, a hashtag set, and one editing tip
• Example: a 45-second Short for a personal-finance page explaining why a 24-year-old's emergency fund is too small — title "Your Emergency Fund Is Probably Too Small", hook (0-3s) "Three months of expenses isn't enough anymore.", retention beat @15s: cut to a number breakdown card re-asking "so what's the real number?"

Who it's for

• YouTube Shorts creators, educators, and finance/how-to pages posting on a weekly or daily cadence who need the title and the mid-video retention structure, not just an opening line
