Free AI Hook Generator

A hook generator writes the opening line of a video or post, the first thing people hear or read before they decide to keep watching. Tell Deepege what the video is about, the facts behind it, who it is for and where it will run, and get hooks in several styles to test, then turn the best one into a full script in the same chat.

Mockup: three hooks for a sourdough bakery, each paired with the fact from the brief that the video pays off

Hooks your video can pay off

A hook that promises more than the video delivers makes people leave. Deepege builds each hook on a fact you give it, such as a feature, a price, a number you can prove or a real situation your customer is in, so the next seconds of the video can answer it. It does not invent results or numbers. Tell it what you can show on camera and it picks hooks that fit.

Start from what people search and watch

Before writing, you can ask Deepege to look up what is trending on TikTok or what people type into YouTube search for your topic, then write hooks around the questions people already have. It is a starting point for ideas, not a promise of views. Add the right hashtags with the TikTok hashtag generator.

Mockup: the chosen hook turned into a 20-second script with hook, body and call to action sections

From the first line to the full script

A hook is only the first two or three seconds. Once you pick one, ask in the same chat for the rest: a 15, 30 or 60-second script that answers the hook, on-screen text and a call to action at the end. You can then make a voiceover with the AI voiceover generator or write the caption for the post.

Used across industries

Ecommerce example: a vertical product video for an insulated water bottle opening with a result-first hook — Ecommerce product videos
A brand selling a 24 oz insulated bottle wants a TikTok for commuters. Deepege writes a result-first hook built on the 24-hour cold claim, a question hook about warm water at work and a short list hook, each with on-screen text.

Local business example: a vertical video for a bakery opening with a question hook about sourdough — Local businesses
A bakery films its morning bake for Instagram Reels. Deepege writes a question hook about why its sourdough takes two days, built on the 48-hour ferment, so the video can show the dough and answer it.

SaaS example: a vertical video for a meeting notes app opening with a hook about the cost of long meetings — SaaS and B2B teams
A software team shows its meeting notes app in a YouTube Short. Deepege writes a hook about the time lost writing notes after calls, then the script shows the summary and action items appearing when the call ends.

What makes a good hook

The first seconds decide whether people keep watching. Hooks that work usually:

Speak to one person and one problem: a commuter with warm water, a team lead stuck in meetings.
Make one clear promise: a result, an answer or a mistake to avoid.
Are true: the video shows the thing the hook promises. Numbers in the hook are numbers you can back up.
Work without sound: put the hook on screen as text, since many people watch muted.
Are short: one sentence you can say in about two or three seconds.

Hook styles you can ask for

Question: "Still drinking warm water by 2 p.m.?"
Result first: show or say the outcome, then explain how.
Short list: "3 things to check before you buy a water bottle." Keep the number the same as in the video.
Myth to correct: a common belief your video can show is wrong, with proof.
Quick story or scene: drop people into a moment your customer knows.
Concern up front: name the doubt people have, such as price or setup time, and answer it.

Test two or three styles on the same video and keep the one people watch longest.

FAQ

What is a hook generator?

It is a tool that writes the opening line of a video, post or ad, the part meant to make people stop scrolling. On this page you describe the topic, the facts, the audience and the platform, and Deepege chat writes hooks in several styles that you can change by chatting.

Is this hook generator free?

Yes, you can try it for free. You get free credits on sign-up, so you can open Deepege chat from this page and write hooks right away. When the credits run out, you can keep going on a paid plan.

Which platforms can I write hooks for?

You can ask for hooks for TikTok, Instagram Reels, YouTube Shorts, the opening of a longer YouTube video, LinkedIn or X posts and video ads. Say the platform and the length of the video, and Deepege writes the spoken line and a short on-screen text.

Will these hooks make my video go viral?

No tool can promise views. A good hook gives people a reason to keep watching, but the video still has to deliver what the hook promises. Test a few styles on the same video and keep the one with the best watch time.

Can it write the rest of the script?

Yes. After you pick a hook, ask in the same chat for the full script, on-screen text and a call to action. You can also upload a video you already filmed: Deepege turns the speech into text first, then rewrites the opening.

Can I use the hooks for my business?

Yes, you can use the hooks in your own videos, posts and ads. Check that every fact and number in a hook is true before you publish. See the Deepege user agreement for details.
