Ultimate YouTube Retention-Focused Scriptwriter

Generates highly engaging, retention-optimized video scripts using the Hook-Story-Offer framework with visual cues.

Use Case

Use this prompt when you need to write a video script that keeps viewers watching past the critical 30-second mark to optimize for the YouTube algorithm.
AI Prompt
Act as an expert YouTube scriptwriter who has helped channels grow to millions of subscribers. Draft a full YouTube video script on [insert topic here] targeting [insert target audience here]. Use the Hook-Story-Offer framework. The video length should be approximately [insert desired length, e.g., 8 minutes]. Divide the script into clear columns or sections: Visual Cues (what is shown on screen, including B-roll, text overlays, zooms), Audio (the voiceover or spoken dialogue), and Pacing (the energy level or speed of delivery). Ensure the first 5 seconds have a pattern interrupt, the first 30 seconds address a major pain point, and the middle includes retention spikes (visual transitions or surprising stats). End with a highly specific, low-friction Call to Action (CTA).

  2. 2Step 2: Define your desired video length in the prompt placeholder.
  3. 3Step 3: Run the prompt and copy the script, adjusting the visual cues to match your production style.
