HOOK FORMULA · Everyone's doing X, nobody shows how
0.0–2.1s dark board of your own reels · text slab · no VO
2.1–5.0s cut to cream · presenter enters · "here's the folder"
5 REWRITES · for: dentist
1. Everyone's posting smile transformations — nobody shows the first 3 seconds.
2. I rebuilt the reel that got my clinic 400 bookings. Here's the folder.

Paste. Run. Rewrite.
01
Paste a reel link
Any public Instagram, TikTok or Shorts URL.
02
Your agent runs it
Transcript, shot list and timing from the video itself — not a guess.
03
Get the formula
The hook pattern it used, why it worked, and 5 rewrites for your niche.
What you get back
- Full transcript with timestamps
- Shot-by-shot list (what is on screen, for how long)
- The hook formula, named and explained
- 5 rewrites — "make them for a dentist"
- Posting notes: length, caption shape, CTA placement
What you need
- A desktop coding agent — Claude Code, Codex or OpenClaw. A browser chat alone can't run the local tools.
- One transcription key (or run offline with a local model — the setup step offers both).
- A reel you have the right to analyse. We don't store the video.
