Batch Your Reels Hooks with AI

Batch Your Reels Hooks with AI (So You’re Never Staring at a Blank Screen)

Let’s be honest: the hook is the hardest part of any Reel.

You’ve got the idea, you know the value - but staring at your screen thinking, “How do I start this?” can stall your content for days.

Reels live and die by their first 3 seconds.
If you can’t hook them, they’ll scroll on - no matter how good your content is.

This is exactly how I use AI to batch 10+ Reels hooks in one sitting, so I always have scroll-stoppers on standby.

✅ What Makes a Great Reels Hook?

✔️ Short
✔️ Specific
✔️ Speaks to a pain point, curiosity, or bold opinion
✔️ Makes them want to keep watching (or reading the caption)

✅ Step 1: Start with Your Idea or Topic

Example:

• “How to get more saves on your content”

• “Why your posts aren’t converting”

• “Content ideas for service-based businesses”

This becomes your seed for AI to build from.

Use bold, direct language. Aim for curiosity, clarity, or a bit of sass. Keep each hook under 12 words.”
