Will Your Clip Go Viral?
Score your Twitch or Kick clip's viral potential for TikTok, Shorts and Reels — and get the exact fixes to make it pop, in seconds.
An AI clip analyzer scores how likely a clip is to perform as a short. Short-form algorithms on TikTok, Shorts and Reels reward a few specific things: a hook in the first second, a tight length, vertical framing, readable captions, and an emotional payoff. This free tool grades your clip on each of those factors, gives you a 0–100 viral-potential score, and tells you the single highest-impact fix — before you ever post it.

A 0–100 viral-potential score with the exact changes that would lift it the most.
What it grades
Hook strength
Whether the payoff lands in the first 1–3 seconds — the single biggest factor in retention.
Length fit
How close your clip is to the sweet spot for completion rate on each platform.
Format & captions
Vertical framing, on-screen captions and facecam — the table stakes of short-form.
Caption & emotion
Whether your title creates curiosity and your moment triggers a shareable emotion.
What actually makes a clip go viral
Virality isn't luck so much as retention. Short-form platforms push clips that people watch to the end and re-watch, so the whole game is keeping a thumb from scrolling. That starts with the hook: if nothing interesting happens in the first second, most viewers leave before the payoff. The best clips open on the action — the shot, the laugh, the fail — and use the caption to add curiosity, not to explain.
Length, format and the boring stuff that matters
Most viral gaming clips land between 10 and 30 seconds — long enough to deliver a moment, short enough to finish and replay. They're vertical so they fill a phone screen, and they have burned-in captions because a huge share of people watch on mute. None of this is creative genius; it's format discipline, and it's exactly the part that's easy to get wrong by exporting a raw landscape Twitch clip straight to TikTok.
From "analyzed" to "auto-made"
Knowing what to fix is step one. Doing it on every clip, every stream, is the grind. Eklipse's AI watches your streams, finds the high-emotion moments automatically, then cuts them vertical, adds captions, and frames the action up front — the exact factors this analyzer grades. So instead of hand-checking one clip, your whole VOD comes back as ready-to-post shorts.
Frequently asked questions
How does the AI clip analyzer score my clip?
It grades five factors that drive short-form performance — hook timing, clip length, vertical format, on-screen captions, and the emotional pull of your moment and caption — then combines them into a 0–100 viral-potential score with the highest-impact fix highlighted. It's a best-practices model, not a guarantee of views.
Do I need to upload my clip?
No. The tool runs entirely in your browser based on what you tell it about the clip — nothing is uploaded, stored, or sent anywhere. That keeps it instant and private.
What's the best length for a viral clip?
For gaming moments, roughly 10–30 seconds tends to perform best: long enough to land the moment, short enough to watch fully and replay. Very long clips usually lose completion rate. The analyzer scores how close yours is to that window.
Why does the hook matter so much?
Short-form algorithms reward retention, and most drop-off happens in the first 1–3 seconds. If your clip opens on the action or payoff, more people stay — which the algorithm reads as a good clip and shows to more people. A slow build usually tanks reach.
Can Eklipse make these fixes for me?
Yes. Eklipse's AI auto-clips your streams and applies the same factors this tool grades — vertical reframing, burned-in captions, and hook-first cuts — then posts them to TikTok, Shorts and Reels automatically.
