Weak

Do not edit this one. Write five more and score those instead. Editing a weak line keeps its shape.

Weakest row: Specificity, 0 of 26.

  1. Specificity

    0/26

    No concrete marker, and 2 words that could be written about anything.

    • amazing
    • platform
  2. Curiosity gap

    0/22

    "we are excited" asks for a decision before the line has earned one, and nothing is left open.

    • we are excited
  3. Front-loading

    0/18

    No number, question or concrete noun anywhere in the line.

  4. Length

    14/14

    12 words, inside the 5 to 12 band that reads in one glance.

    • 12 words
    • 64 characters
  5. Second person

    0/12

    The line is about we and our. Rewrite it so the reader is the subject.

    • we
    • our
  6. Numerals

    0/8

    No number. This costs nothing, but a digit is the cheapest way to stop the eye.

No account. Nothing leaves this tab.

How to use it

  1. Paste the first line

    The first text on screen, or the first sentence spoken. Not the caption.

  2. Read the weakest row

    The total ranks a batch. The 6 rows tell you what to fix, with the words that earned or cost points.

  3. Rewrite and score again

    Fix one row at a time. Watch what the change costs in the other rows.

Questions

Is my text uploaded?

No. The score runs in this tab. Nothing is sent or stored.

Does a high score mean views?

No. It ranks hooks against each other. Visuals, sound, pacing and the account also decide views.

Does Looptake use this score?

Yes. Every hook Looptake writes gets the same score, so the strongest ideas come first.
