How to Write a Viral YouTube Shorts Script

YouTube Shorts have revolutionized content creation. With billions of daily views, Shorts offer the fastest path to subscriber growth. However, because viewers can swipe away in a fraction of a second, your script structure is the single most important factor for success.

The Hook, Retain, Payoff Framework

Our AI script generator uses the exact framework utilized by top creators:

  • The Hook (0:00 – 0:03): You must break the pattern immediately. State the value proposition or ask a compelling question before the viewer realizes what is happening.
  • The Retention (0:03 – 0:45): Keep the pacing tight. Visuals must change every 2 to 3 seconds. The audio should cut out all “fluff” and “umms,” delivering pure value or story progression continuously.
  • The Payoff & Loop (0:45 – 0:60): Deliver the final punchline, answer, or result. The best Shorts end in a way that perfectly loops back into the Hook, tricking the viewer into watching it twice, which shoots your retention over 100%.

Why Use an AI Scriptwriter?

Writing for short-form content requires a completely different skill set than writing a 10-minute video. You have to be concise. Our tool, powered by Google’s Gemini AI, not only writes your spoken dialogue but also provides a “Visual” column, acting as your personal director to tell you exactly what B-roll, text, or camera angles to use to keep audience retention high.
