How it works
Three steps to your next video.
Teach it your voice
Paste your channel link and Hookquill reads the captions of your own videos to learn how your channel talks. No channel yet? Answer a few questions and share something you have written.
Pick a topic
It researches the topic, plans the video and picks the strongest of three hooks. Change the plan, or let it write straight away.
Get a finished script
Written in your voice, fact-checked and polished before you see it. Then the voiceover, titles and files for your editor.
What you get
A faceless video, ready for the edit.
One topic in, everything your editor needs out. This is the example from above; yours is written in your channel’s voice.
The Eiffel Tower was never supposed to last. Gustave Eiffel’s permit gave it twenty years. After that, Paris could tear it down, and plenty of people wanted to. So how does a temporary tower become the symbol of an entire country? It starts with a radio.
B-roll · Archive photo: the tower half built over the Paris rooftops, 1888
In 1887, before it was even finished, the city’s best-known artists published a protest. They called the tower “useless and monstrous.”

Everything before the edit
One place for the whole video. Not five tabs.
Most creators research in one tool, write in another, record in a third and paste titles from a fourth. Hookquill does all of it, and every step knows what the last one found.

- Learns from your channel or your writing
- Cuts the usual AI tells before you see them
- One voice profile per channel you run

- Every fact linked to the page it came from
- Recent sources first, old numbers labelled with their year
- Add your own links, PDFs and notes

Make my first video freeHow does Hookquill learn my channel’s voice?
Paste your channel link. Hookquill reads the captions of up to 20 of your own videos, your most-watched and your newest, measures your sentence length and speaking pace, and gives every script passages of your real speech to match. Channels you admire teach structure only, never their words. The full details are on the How it works page.
Do I need a YouTube channel?
No. Without a channel, Hookquill learns your voice from a short questionnaire and anything you have written. Link your channel later and your profile gets sharper.
Will it sound like my channel or like AI?
Like your channel. Scripts are written from your voice profile and your own words: your sentence length, your pace, your phrases, and the words you never use. Before you see the script, a polish pass removes the usual AI tells and anything that drifts from your voice. Edits you ask for later wait for you to accept them.
Where do the facts come from?
Before it writes, Hookquill searches the web, reads the pages and keeps the facts that have a source, with the link and the date. The script states only what those sources back. Anything it could not source is checked against the web before you see the script, then confirmed, reworded or cut. You never get a list of facts to check yourself. You can add your own links, PDFs and notes too.
What voices can the voiceover use?
Studio narrators made for voiceover, in every language Hookquill writes in. Hear a sample, pick one, and the voiceover is read from your finished script. Download it as MP3 or WAV.
Which languages does it write in?
English, Hindi, Urdu, Spanish, Portuguese, German, French, Indonesian, Arabic. Written natively, never translated from English, on every plan.
Does it work for faceless channels?
Yes. Faceless scripts get a visual cue for every paragraph, the voiceover is built in, and the download includes a shot list your editor can work from.
Can I try it free?
Yes. Sign in with Google and your first video is free: 150 credits, enough for a 10-minute script with research, fact check, titles and voiceover, to use within 7 days. No card. After that, plans start at $29 a month. Cancel any time.
Do you train AI on my scripts?
No. Your scripts are yours. We never train models on them and never sell them.
