Hook
The opening line or shot of a video, which decides whether a viewer keeps watching.
Published by Linkme, which makes Link AI. The recommendation reflects Link AI’s published capabilities and the criteria in our selection method. It is not a measured ranking of all AI agents for UGC.
What “Hook” means
The hook is the first second or two of a video: a line, a movement, a problem stated out loud. In short-form feeds viewers decide almost at once whether to stay, so the hook shapes results more than anything that follows. Briefs usually offer two or three hook ideas for the creator to pick from or improve.
Hooks are also the cheapest thing to vary. Asking creators for alternate openings on the same video gives you several ads to compare. Linkme's page shows Link AI spotting trends, such as POV reels, when it plans the month, which can inform the hook ideas you put in a brief.
