Free hook testerWill your hook hold 3 seconds?
Type your opening words: we rank them against real hooks in your niche and show you what works better.
Paste your hook, we compare it to the real hooks in your niche.
Method: your hook is labeled, then compared to the real hooks in our database. The score is the observed median of hooks sharing your labels, not a model's opinion. A hook score is a rank within its niche: 50 is the median.
This hook tester does not hand you an AI opinion on your text. It labels your hook (hook type, sentence form, person, length), then looks up what hooks built like yours actually score in our database, in your niche and on the same platform. The score you get is the observed median of those hooks: 50 is the niche median. You also get the phrasings that perform better, with real hooks that use them.
Where does my hook score come from?
From our data, not from a model. Every hook in our database carries a hook score, the performance rank of that post inside its niche. We label your text, isolate the real hooks sharing those labels and return their median score. 50 = niche median.
Do I have to paste the exact wording?
Yes, word for word what you say in the first 3 seconds. Length is part of the analysis: we estimate your speaking time from the speech rate observed in your niche to tell you whether your hook really fits in 3 seconds.
How many tests per day?
5 tests per day per visitor: the first one free, the rest in exchange for your email. Enough to compare several wordings of the same hook, which is where the tool really pays off.
Which niches are covered?
The ones where we have enough analyzed hooks to say something reliable. The list is computed from the data and shows up in the dropdown. If your niche is missing, pick "All niches": the statistics still hold, they are just less targeted.
Is it really free?
Yes. This tester reads a handful of niches. Viral Manager watches yours continuously, catches the content that takes off and turns it into briefs for your creators (7-day free trial).
