Viral Shorts AI Generator
SocialGrovv's Viral Shorts Generator writes a hook, drafts a 30–60 second script, and builds a captioned 9:16 export with voiceover and vertical B-roll. It is the produce layer for short-form autonomous channel growth: once your content plan is approved, shorts fill calendar slots and the system posts to Instagram, TikTok, YouTube, and Facebook for you.

How it works
Step 1
Give it a hook idea
Type a topic, angle, or working hook. The studio drafts three alternate openings and a full 30–60 second script tuned for retention.
Step 2
Pick voice, style, and captions
Choose an ElevenLabs catalog voice, pick a caption style (word-by-word, karaoke, or classic), and apply your brand kit.
Step 3
Render 9:16
SocialGrovv assembles vertical B-roll or generated visuals, syncs captions to the waveform, and produces a mobile-ready MP4.
Step 4
Publish everywhere
Push the same short to TikTok, Instagram Reels, YouTube Shorts, and Facebook Reels — either instantly or through the AI content calendar.
Hook-first scripting
Every short opens with an AI-drafted hook designed for the first three seconds, then earns the rest of the watch time with tight pacing and captions.
Multi-platform in one export
You render once from the content plan, then the system posts the same short across Instagram, TikTok, YouTube Shorts, and Facebook — the publish half of autonomous channel growth without re-cropping in separate apps.
Brand kit consistency
Fonts, colors, watermark, and outro are locked to your brand kit so every short in the queue feels like part of the same channel.

Frequently asked questions
Can SocialGrovv guarantee a short will go viral?
No tool can. What we do is stack the odds: hook-first scripting, tight captions, retention-oriented pacing, and same-day publishing to four platforms so the algorithm has more chances to surface a winner.
What length are the shorts?
Shorts render 9:16 at up to 60 seconds by default. You can also generate 15, 30, and 45-second cuts from the same script if you want to A/B test on TikTok and Reels.
Do I need to write anything myself?
No. A topic or working hook is enough. Every draft — script, captions, B-roll pairing, voice take — is editable, so power users typically tweak a line or two before rendering.
Does it work for spoken-face videos, not just faceless?
Yes. You can record yourself on camera and use the Clip-to-Shorts editor. SocialGrovv does not generate talking-head AI avatars — faceless videos use ElevenLabs catalog voices over B-roll or generated visuals.
