OnHook is your AI copilot for yapping on camera. Write scroll-stopping scripts, then record them with a smart teleprompter, all in one app. Built for TikTok, Reels, and Shorts. Write scripts that go viral Our AI is trained on what actually makes short-form videos blow up, studying the hooks, pacing, and structure behind viral content. Every script comes out optimized for virality: openers that stop the scroll, clear calls to action, and pacing built for retention. Write in your own style Pick from a range of proven writing styles used by top content creators, or create your own. OnHook learns from your content and writes in your voice, your words, your personality. Two ways to start Have an idea? Just type it and OnHook writes the full script for you. Got a video that inspires you? Upload it as inspiration and OnHook transcribes it, then writes fresh content in the same style. Not a copy, a starting point.

Record with a smart teleprompter Film right inside OnHook with a teleprompter that follows you. It listens as you speak and scrolls automatically, so you stay on script without staring at a wall of text. Recording has never been this easy. Post more, stress less, and grow your audience faster.
