Viral hook detector
Some moments are structured to spread and some aren't. FrameOS detects the structural patterns in each candidate clip — opener strength, emotional peak, clean arc — and scores them, so you review the highest-potential cuts first.
Viral clips share a structure, not just luck
The clips that get shared consistently have identifiable patterns: they open with a hook that creates tension or curiosity, deliver on it, and end with a clear close. The detector scores each candidate moment against these patterns — not predicting virality (no tool can), but surfacing the moments closest to that structure.
A score for every candidate clip
Every moment FrameOS identifies in your video gets a hook score. The score reflects the strength of the opening line, the presence of an emotional or informational peak, and whether the moment ends cleanly. Reviewing by score means your time goes to the best candidates, not the ones that happened to come first.
Why not just pick the loudest moment?
Audio energy and visual dynamism are weak predictors of viral performance — a quiet, clipped observation often outperforms a loud argument. The hook score weights for structure and content signal, not volume, so the ranked list includes moments a naive energy-based system would miss.
Use the score to decide, then edit from there
The hook detector gives you a ranked shortlist. The final decision — whether to use a clip, how to cut it — stays with you. The score is a triage tool, not an automation that publishes without review.
Viral detection workflow
- Structural hook score for every candidate clip.
- Weighs opener strength, peak moment, and clean close.
- Ranks by pattern, not just audio energy.
- Review high-scorers first; final call stays yours.
FAQ
Can FrameOS predict if a video will go viral?
No tool can reliably predict virality. The hook detector identifies clips whose structure matches patterns common in viral content — a strong opener, a peak, a clean close — and scores them so you can prioritise the best candidates.
What does the hook score measure?
Opener strength, the presence of an emotional or informational peak, and whether the moment ends with a clean close. It's a structural signal, not a popularity prediction.
Is this different from hook detection?
Hook detection finds moments with hook-worthy openings. The viral hook detector scores all candidate clips against a broader set of virality-correlated patterns — it's a ranking layer on top of the detection.
