UGC reaction hooks

A UGC reaction hook is a short ad-style video in two parts: first a person reacts on camera with your hook text on top, then your own product demo video plays. You pick a reaction clip from our library or generate a custom one, add hook text, and upload your demo. This format is built for product promos on TikTok, Reels, and Shorts.


What do I need?


  • An active paid plan. Creating UGC videos and custom reactions needs a current subscription.
  • Hook text, or an idea for one. AITuber can generate hook ideas for 2 credits.
  • Your demo video (optional). This is your own screen recording or product clip that plays after the reaction.
  • Credits.


What does "demo" mean here?


The demo is YOUR video: a screen recording of your app, a product clip, or any footage you upload. It plays right after the reaction hook. The demo is always muted in the final video, because the hook text carries the message. A demo is optional; you can also make a hook-only video.


How do I create a UGC reaction hook?


  1. Open UGC hooks page.
  2. Pick a reaction clip from the library. The samples show real people with different reactions; the names and tags describe the person and the mood.
  1. Or generate a custom reaction from a character photo. Pick Good or Premium quality.
  2. Type your hook text, or click generate to get AI hook ideas (2 credits).
  1. Upload your demo video. Maximum 3 minutes.
  1. Preview the full video, then save, export, or publish it.
