Thanks for hunting us @benln Hi Product Hunt 👋 I’m Tanmay, the Co-founder of Gala. I came from Canva Video to a journey of indie making social mobile apps. During this I realised video ads were powerful growth hacks - but it took weeks of painful video edits and expensive influencers to make even one ad (that didn’t work.) That’s what brought me into the deep dive of what makes a great TIkTok or Instagram video ad. And I realised how powerful hooks were - those first two seconds of an ad that reels you in. Trying to use existing LLMs only made super corporate boring hooks that didn’t perform. That’s when we put together our own model at Gala, trained on 1000s of top performing hooks scraped from TikTok case studies & Meta ads library, to write hooks that sounded like a human. If you want to make video ads that go viral, just put in your link - and let us know what you think!

It’s been a pleasure to bring all my insider knowledge from 3 years at TikTok to build something open and free for every marketer to use. No need to spend millions of dollars to unlock my team at TikTok to write these for you - now they’re here for everyone!

Congrats for the launch! Just tried it, love the breakdown into different categories! I might try one of the Extreme hooks 👀

I just tried it for my app Flamme, and love it. Straight to the point catchy hooks. Good job guys! 🙌🏽

Hello! My name is Jake and I am the cofounder & CTO of Gala. I previously worked at Atlassian, Facebook and I've been in small startups for 5 years now. This tool was so much fun to build with @tanmay_jain_ and @philippa_dunjay. I love using amazing new technologies like AI to solve the needs of real businesses, like lowering their marketing costs and increasing their return on Ad Spend. We built this hook generator to provide every business with the ability to test and optimize their ads with the sophistication of multi-billion dollar brands. Please give it a look and let us know if you like it!

Well done @tanmay_jain_ @philippa_dunjay & @jake_bloom! Cheering for you guys and excited to see Gala out in the world!

Love the concept, loads of potential

Congrats on the launch Tanmay. This is a no-brainer for marketers!

Congratulations @tanmay_jain_ and the team on this launch, I think this will be quite a time saver because i really spend a lot of time in trying to getting the best hook for the video, I will definitely give it a try. what exactly made you specifically work on this product, is three a story behind?

congrats on the launch @tanmay_jain_ ✨
