Virality Intelligence

Don't guess which clips will perform. Let the AI score them.

Short Shorts AI assigns every clip a virality score — analysing hook strength, emotional peaks, quotability, controversy, and platform-specific CTR signals — so you always publish your best content first.

Virality score: 94/100

A ranked shortlist, not a pile of clips

Every candidate clip arrives with a score and a reason. You see your best content at the top — always.

What you get

What goes into a virality score

Hook strength in second 1–3

The first 3 seconds determine whether viewers stay or scroll. The AI scores how strongly each clip opens — question hooks, bold claims, surprising visuals, and pattern interrupts all register higher.

Emotional arc & intensity

Clips that build tension and resolve it score higher. Flat, even-paced content scores lower regardless of topic quality.

Quotability & shareability

One-liners, memorable phrases, and soundbite-worthy sentences are flagged and contribute to the score — these are the moments viewers screenshot and share.

Platform CTR signals

Different platforms reward different signals. The AI weights scores for YouTube Shorts (watch-through, re-watches) vs X (engagement, replies) differently.

Score transparency

You can see exactly why a clip scored how it did — which signals fired, which dragged the score down, and how to apply those lessons to future content.

Ranked shortlist output

Your clips arrive pre-sorted, best first. No spreadsheet, no gut-feeling guessing — just a ranked list you can publish top-down with confidence.

How it works

How virality scoring is calculated

01

Transcript-level hook analysis

Grok reads the full transcript and applies a custom virality prompt scoring hook phrases, emotional language, rhetorical questions, controversial claims, and story-telling patterns at every timestamp.

Hook signals: 27 detected
02

Clip window scoring

Every candidate clip window is scored across 8 dimensions: hook quality, emotional intensity, quotability, controversy level, narrative completeness, pacing, platform fit, and title potential. Weights are tuned per platform.

Clip #4 score: 91/100
03

Ranked output & title generation

Clips are sorted by score descending. The top clips also receive AI-generated titles and thumbnail text optimised for CTR — the entire package is ready to publish.
