The problem it solves

You know short-form video is where attention is right now, but you do not have hours to scroll TikTok and Instagram every week looking for what is working. By the time you notice a trend on your own, it is often already stale.

Who it fits

A freelance video editor, social media manager, or small marketing team creating content for clients.

How it works

  1. The system scans TikTok and Instagram Reels for what is trending this month
  2. AI identifies the top campaigns, formats, and editing styles that are getting views
  3. It notes the hooks and angles that are working right now
  4. A trend report with actionable ideas is generated for you to apply to client work
What you get

Trending formats spotted before you scroll

You get a monthly report of the trending TikTok and Instagram formats and hooks that are getting views right now.

What you get

A written trend report covering top TikTok and Reels campaigns, editing styles, hooks, and ideas you can use.

What you need

Social media access for research and an AI service like OpenAI.

We can build this. But should you?

The hard question is not how to build it. It is whether this is the right thing to build first.

That is what a Fractional Chief AI Officer figures out with you, before anyone writes a line of code.
