Why test hooks instead of whole new ads?

The first few seconds decide whether anyone sees the rest of the ad, and swapping the opening line is the cheapest change you can make. Keeping the body the same means a difference in results points at the hook, not at everything else that changed.

How many hook variations should I test?

Enough to compare angles, not just wording. Three to five hooks across different angles — pain point, benefit, proof, call-out — on the same video body is a practical starting point for most budgets.

Can I use these hooks with AI UGC videos?

Yes. Each hook is a line to say to camera, so you can film it, brief a creator with it, or give it to an AI presenter. With AI presenters, generating a new opening for every hook takes minutes rather than a reshoot.

What does the CSV export include?

One row per hook with an id, its angle and the line itself, ready to paste into a spreadsheet or use as names for your ad variations so results map back to the hook that ran.
