Overview

Score a post before you publish

The virality predictor rates your draft against the traits that consistently drive shares — a scroll-stopping hook, emotional pull, clarity, and an obvious reason to repost. You get a score plus specific, plain-English suggestions on what to strengthen, so you can iterate on the copy while it still matters.

What actually makes content spread

Reach is rarely luck: high-performing posts tend to trigger a clear emotion, promise fast value, and lower the effort required to share. This tool makes those hidden signals visible for your own writing, helping you A/B different hooks and openings without waiting days for the algorithm to decide.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

How accurate is the engagement score?+

The score is based on patterns found in highly viral content, evaluating hook strength, clarity, and format. It serves as a strong directional indicator.

How do I know if my post will go viral before publishing?+

Paste your draft into the Virality Predictor. The AI scores it 0–100 based on hook strength, emotional triggers, clarity, and format patterns found in top-performing posts. A score above 70 indicates strong viral potential.

What makes a social media post go viral?+

Viral posts share common traits: a strong opening hook in the first line, emotional resonance (curiosity, surprise, or value), concise formatting, and a clear call-to-action. This tool evaluates all of these dimensions and tells you where to improve.

Can I use this for Instagram, LinkedIn, and Twitter posts?+

Yes. The predictor is platform-agnostic — paste any post copy regardless of the platform. It analyzes the text structure and hook quality, which are consistent viral signals across Instagram, X (Twitter), LinkedIn, and TikTok captions.

What is a hook and why does it matter for virality?+

A hook is the first 1–2 sentences of your post. It determines whether someone stops scrolling or keeps going. Posts with weak hooks lose 90% of potential readers before the second line. The predictor scores your hook and suggests a stronger alternative.

Which platforms is the prediction tuned for?+

The hook and format analysis applies to short-form social posts broadly — X/Twitter, LinkedIn, and Instagram captions — since they all reward a strong first line.

Is a high score a guarantee of going viral?+

No. It signals that the fundamentals — hook, clarity, format — are strong. Reach still depends on timing, audience, and the platform algorithm.
