Input types
Start with whatever idea you already have.
The tool is useful because the input can be rough. A product, note, image idea or audience problem can become several short-form options.
Product or offer
Use a product benefit, launch idea, store visual, feature or before-and-after angle.
Turn this product benefit into five Reel hooks, three short scripts, overlay text and caption options.
Topic or opinion
Use a thought, niche topic, lesson, myth, visual idea or repeated question from your audience.
Turn this opinion into short-form hooks, a 20-second script, three caption options and a strong ending line.
Image or scene idea
Use a product photo, AI image, character scene, cinematic frame or planned starting visual.
Build short video ideas around this image: hook, overlay text, caption and motion prompt direction.
Simple creation path
A 1, 2, 3 tool flow for short-form ideas.
Keep it simple: enter the idea, generate the short-form building blocks, use the strongest version.
Enter the short-video idea
Paste a rough topic, product benefit, visual idea, audience problem or existing post.
Generate options
