Score and force-rank the openings of candidate video ads - from a script, transcript, storyboard, shot list, or a description of a finished cut - to decide which hooks deserve test budget, returning a ranked shortlist within the batch rather than an absolute performance prediction. Use whenever the user mentions a hook, the first 3 seconds, an ad opening, hook rate, thumbstop, attention scoring, or asks which hook to test or whether a hook works - even if they never say 'hook analyzer'. Covers B2B and B2C on any platform. Ends at the ranking: writing the scripts themselves is mbfinotti/advertising-skills@ugc-ad-scripts and static copy is mbfinotti/advertising-skills@ad-copy-variants.
