Frequently Asked Questions
What is a TikTok hook and why does it matter?
A TikTok hook is the opening line of your caption or video that determines whether viewers keep watching or scroll past. TikTok's algorithm prioritizes watch time, so a strong hook directly impacts your reach. Clipsy generates hook-first captions from voice memos, giving you multiple opening angles to test for each video.
How does Clipsy generate different hook styles?
Clipsy offers 21 writing styles that produce different hook types — curiosity gaps, bold claims, relatable pain points, and storytelling openers. Speak your video idea into the Clipsy iPhone app once, then generate captions across multiple styles to find the hook that resonates best with your TikTok audience.
Can I use Clipsy hooks for my TikTok video script too?
Yes. While Clipsy generates written captions, the hooks work equally well as spoken opening lines for your TikTok videos. Many creators use Clipsy's hook output as their video script opener, then paste the remaining caption into TikTok's description field. One voice memo gives you both the script hook and the caption.
