How it works

  1. Type your topicWrite what your video is about in a few words, like "saving money in your 20s" or "easy breakfast ideas".
  2. Pick your niche, goal and platformHookKit matches the caption ending, hashtags and posting times to what you want: views, followers, comments, saves or sales.
  3. Copy, fill in, postChoose the hook that makes you most curious, fill the [brackets] in the caption with your own words, and post at a suggested time.

Every hook is built from patterns that short-form creators use again and again: questions, bold claims, mistakes, stories, lists, curiosity, hot takes, POV and proof. HookKit mixes one of each style into your list, so you can test different openings instead of guessing.

Captions follow the same shape that keeps people watching a video: a hook, a short build-up and a payoff, then one clear call to action. Learn why in our guide to hook, build-up and payoff.

Questions

Is HookKit really free?

Yes. The hook maker and all guides are free, with no sign-up. We're supported by ads and by the optional Creator Hook Pack.

Does it use AI?

No. HookKit fills in hand-written hook templates with your topic, so results are instant and work offline once the page has loaded. You stay in control of the final words.

Will these hooks make my video go viral?

No tool can promise that. A strong hook gives your video a better chance to be watched, but results also depend on the video itself, your audience and consistency. Test a few hooks and keep what works.

Which platforms does it work for?

Instagram Reels, TikTok, YouTube Shorts, LinkedIn and X. The caption length counter and posting times change for each one.

Where are my saved hooks stored?

Only in your browser, on your device. We never see them. Clearing your browser data removes them. See our Privacy Policy.

How many hashtags should I use?

Usually 3 to 5 that really match your video. Read our hashtag guide for how to choose them.
