FAQ

Breakdown FAQ

Why does this social media hook work?

The first slide sets up a mini story with unresolved tension: the soulmate result resembles an ex, and the viewer needs to know what happens.

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.
