Designing viral video hooks before recording anything

Hi HN,

I’m Muhammed Mufinuddin Afraz, an independent builder working on Vect AI.

One problem I kept seeing with short-form video is that most effort goes into editing and production, while the real failure happens earlier — weak hooks, unclear angles, or no clear reason for the video to be shared.

That led me to build the Viral Video Blueprint inside Vect AI.

Instead of generating random scripts, the tool focuses on pre-production thinking:

identifying the core hook,

structuring the first 3–5 seconds,

defining the emotional trigger,

and outlining why a video should spread before anything is recorded.

The goal isn’t to promise virality, but to remove guesswork before time or money is spent filming.

This has been useful when:

videos look polished but don’t get traction,

creators don’t know why one video worked and another didn’t,

teams want repeatable formats instead of one-off wins.

You can go directly into the Viral Video Blueprint here: https://vect.pro/#/signup?continue=%2Fapp%2Ftools%3Ftool%3DV...

For transparency, all public pages are visible here: https://www.google.com/search?q=site:vect.pro

I’ve also documented the broader system behind Vect AI here: https://blog.vect.pro/vect-ai-bible-guide

Curious how others here think about designing for shareability before production, and where structure helps versus limits creativity. Happy to answer questions or discuss edge cases.
