Creator Intelligence

A Content Spy strategy pack: creator-native angles, spoken hooks, and script concepts from your niche and campaign — optional inspiration video, single-video only, not in Compare. Eight credits.

Overview

Creator Intelligence sits in Content Spy under Revenue & Strategy. It is a generation tool, not a scored audit. You describe niche, content type, campaign, and goal. The model returns angles, first-second hooks, a retention blueprint, and three ready-to-record script concepts. Open Go Viral → Content Spy (creator account, desktop), or open the dedicated form. Each run costs 8 AI credits.

Not in Compare mode — single-video only. Content Lab already has Creator Strategy Engine at /resources/creator-strategy-engine (3 credits, 0–100 score + 30-day plan). Lab Generate Viral Hooks and Generate Scripts are also different tools. This page is the 8-credit Spy strategy pack.

How to run

  1. 1Sign in as a creator. Open Go Viral → Content Spy (desktop) and select Creator Intelligence — or open the dedicated form.
  2. 2Required: niche, content type (YouTube Video vs YouTube Shorts), campaign context, and primary goal (clicks, awareness, curiosity, leads, or engagement).
  3. 3Optional: audience, content style (Educational, Entertainment, Storytelling, Authority, Tutorial, Vlog, Review), and tone (subtle, bold, mysterious, disruptive, curiosity-driven, humorous, serious). Defaults if blank: General audience, Educational, subtle.
  4. 4Inspiration video is optional on the dedicated form. From Content Spy, a loaded public or unlisted video is always attached. Private videos are not supported.
  5. 5Run it (8 credits). Credits deduct only after a successful result. Read angles first, then hooks, then pick one script concept to film.
You receive 100 free credits when your token wallet is created. The API charges 8 — same as Expected Value. If a dedicated screen shows 10, that display is wrong; the wallet still deducts 8.

What it uses

Your campaign form is always required. An inspiration video adds a deconstruction block — it does not replace the form.

  • Creator niche — the lane the output must stay in.
  • Content type — YouTube Video or YouTube Shorts. Shorts unlocks the Shorts Virality Boost section.
  • Campaign context — what you are promoting or filming toward.
  • Primary goal — clicks, awareness, curiosity, leads, or engagement. This steers angle and hook mix.

Optional — they change flavor, not a hard cap

  • Audience type — defaults to “General audience” if empty.
  • Content style — defaults to Educational if empty.
  • Tone — defaults to subtle if empty.
  • Inspiration video (videoId): title, channel, format, duration, views, likes, comments, engagement rate, subscribers, description (first 800 chars), tags (up to 15), and transcript (first 6,000 characters). No thumbnail vision.
inspirationTitle, inspirationConcept, and inspirationWhy can appear in the request body. They are not interpolated into the model prompt — only the videoId block changes the output. Duration ≤ 60 seconds is labeled YouTube Shorts on the inspiration card. Missing transcript falls back to metadata only.

Generation rules

This is not a 0–100 score. The model writes a strategy pack under fixed section rules. Empty dash bullets are forbidden — if a line cannot be filled, it is skipped.

Replicate patterns, never the idea

  • When an inspiration video is present, extract why it held: psychological triggers, hook structure, retention mechanics, emotional arc.
  • Apply those patterns to your niche and campaign. Do not copy the competitor’s topic, title, or script.
  • Without a video, the model uses proven viral mechanics for the niche you typed.

Creator-native, not marketer

  • Spoken language. No advertising energy, no corporate phrasing.
  • Prioritize curiosity, retention, and pattern interruption over safe or obvious concepts.
  • Hooks are first-seconds spoken lines — not titles, not thumbnail text.

Format split

  • Long-form blueprint: opening curiosity, mid-video re-hooks, watch-time amplification, session chaining.
  • Shorts blueprint: loop creation, rewatch triggers, cognitive tension, scroll-stopping first second.
  • Shorts Virality Boost (3 loop concepts) appears only when content type is Shorts.

What you get

Markdown sections in the Content Spy results panel and the dedicated form. No score ring.

  • Viral Pattern Deconstruction — only when an inspiration video is attached. Patterns actually detected; no empty placeholders.
  • Viral Angles — 5 content angles with concise insights (no empty bullets).
  • Hook Engineering — 10 spoken first-second hooks. Mix: curiosity gaps, pattern interrupts, bold claims, contrarian framing, hidden truths.
  • Retention Mechanics Blueprint — Shorts rules or long-form rules, matching the type you picked.
  • Creator-native script concepts — 3 ready-to-record outlines: Hook → curiosity flow → Payoff.
  • Shorts Virality Boost — only if Shorts: 3 loop-driven concepts, rewatch triggers, swipe-stopping mechanics.
This is a brief to film from — not a 0–100 strategy score, not a 30-day calendar, and not packaging (titles / thumbnails). Use Title & Thumbnail for click packaging. Use Lab Creator Strategy Engine for a scored 30-day plan.

Case study

Composite documentation scenario — not a live client report. Sample is condensed; a real run returns 5 angles, 10 hooks, and 3 full script concepts.

Scenario

A productivity creator wants a long-form video that promotes a focus app without sounding like an ad. Goal is curiosity. They attach a competitor video whose thesis is “your workflow was broken — not the tools.”

Context (available inputs)

  • Niche: productivity / creator tools
  • Type: YouTube Video (long-form) — no Shorts boost section
  • Campaign: promote a focus app
  • Goal: curiosity · Style: Educational · Tone: curiosity-driven
  • Inspiration: metadata + first 6,000 transcript chars — no thumbnail vision
  • Cost: 8 AI credits

Tool result (condensed)

Creator Intelligence
Steal the “system was broken” pattern. Do not remake their tool teardown. Speak like a creator who already wasted a week.

Viral Pattern Deconstruction

  • Blame the workflow, not the product — viewer feels seen before the pitch.
  • Name a failed week in the first seconds, then withhold the fix.
  • Mid-video re-hook: one default that looked smart and made them slower.

Viral Angles (3 of 5)

  • The week the stack got quieter — not faster.
  • I stopped optimizing tools and started protecting the first hour.
  • The focus app only works if the calendar is already honest.

Hook Engineering (3 of 10)

  • I didn’t need a better app. I needed to admit the workflow was lying.
  • Four tools later, my first hour was still gone.
  • If your calendar looks productive and your day doesn’t, watch this.

Retention Mechanics Blueprint

Open on the failed week. Plant “what I deleted” as the unpaid loop. Re-hook every 60–90 seconds with one default that backfired. Pay off by showing the first honest hour — not a feature tour.

Script concept (1 of 3)

Hook: “I didn’t need a better app.” Curiosity flow: walk the four tools that ate the morning, then the one rule that survived. Payoff: the focus app appears only after the calendar is honest — one screen, one hour, no tour.

Takeaways

  • This writes a strategy pack. It does not score the video 0–100.
  • Inspiration changes the deconstruction block. The form still owns niche, campaign, and goal.
  • For titles and thumbnails, run Title & Thumbnail. For a scored 30-day plan, use Lab Creator Strategy Engine.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is this a score?

No. There is no overall 0–100 and no radar. You get angles, hooks, a retention blueprint, and script concepts.

Can I run it in Compare mode?

No. Creator Intelligence is excluded from Compare. It is single-video (or no-video) only.

Do I need an inspiration video?

No on the dedicated form. From Content Spy, a loaded public or unlisted video is always sent as videoId. Private videos are not supported. Without a usable video, the model still generates from your form.

Does it read the thumbnail?

No. Inspiration uses metadata plus the first 6,000 transcript characters. Title & Thumbnail is the Spy tool that analyzes the thumbnail.

Is this Lab Creator Strategy Engine?

No. Lab Creator Strategy Engine is 3 credits, scores 0–100, and returns a 30-day plan on a Lab-loaded video. This is an 8-credit Content Spy generation pack. URLs: /resources/creator-strategy-engine (Lab) vs /resources/creator-intelligence (this page).

Is this Title & Thumbnail, Generate Viral Hooks, or Generate Scripts?

No. Title & Thumbnail is Spy packaging (titles + thumbnail concepts). Lab Generate Viral Hooks and Generate Scripts live in Content Lab. This tool returns a full creator-native strategy pack, including script concepts — not a title list.

How much does a run cost?

8 AI credits. The API deducts 8. A dedicated screen that shows 10 is a display mismatch — the wallet charge is 8.
