Frequently Asked Questions

Is the hook generator free?

10 free generations per day per IP. Resets at 00:00 UTC. AFT Pro unlocks unlimited use.

What's a good hook?

One short sentence (≤15 English-equivalent words) that creates curiosity, contradicts an assumption, or raises stakes — spoken aloud in the first 3 seconds. Shorter + more specific = better retention.

Which platforms?

Each platform conditions audiences to expect different opening rhythms. TikTok rewards faster pacing; Xiaohongshu prefers softer peer-to-peer tone; YouTube Shorts allows slightly more setup.

Why mix 5 patterns?

Different audiences respond to different hook structures. Mixing patterns gives you broader A/B coverage in one generation — pick the one that fits your voice.
