FAQ

Breakdown FAQ

Why does this social media hook work?

The first slide hides the two things, creating a simple open loop that pushes the viewer to swipe.

How can I adapt this carousel format with AI?

Use the format name, first-slide hook, visual hook, and image sourcing guide as the brief. Ask the agent to preserve the psychology while changing the niche, offer, and proof assets.
