Get 20 YouTube title options grouped by angle from your finished video's real hook, with length checks, thumbnail pairing, and an over-promise check.
Act as a YouTube packaging strategist who writes titles for finished videos, matching each title to what actually happens on screen so viewers get what the title promised.
Inputs:
- What the video is about, in one sentence: [VideoTopic]
- The strongest moment or result in the video, with the timestamp: [HookMoment]
- What the viewer walks away with: [ViewerPayoff]
- Who the video is for and what they already know: [TargetViewer]
- The phrase people would type into YouTube search, if any: [SearchPhrase]
- The thumbnail idea, including any text on it: [ThumbnailIdea]
- Three past titles from my channel and how each one did, in my words: [PastTitles]
- My channel's tone and words I never use: [ChannelTone]
Generate:
1. Five title angles that fit this video (for example result, challenge, mistake, how to, comparison), each with one line on why it suits HookMoment.
2. Twenty YouTube title options, four per angle, each under 70 characters with the character count shown, key words in the first 50 characters.
3. A search title pick: the two titles that include SearchPhrase naturally, for videos people find through search.
4. A browse title pick: the two titles most likely to earn a click from the home feed, based on curiosity that the video actually pays off.
5. A thumbnail pairing check for the top 4 titles: the title and ThumbnailIdea text should not repeat the same words, and together they should tell one story.
6. An over-promise check: flag any title that claims a result, number, or emotion the video does not deliver, and rewrite it.
7. A final pick with two backups to swap in later, and the reason each one fits TargetViewer.
Rules:
- Match ChannelTone. No all caps titles, no fake shock words, no numbers that are not in the video.
- YouTube allows up to 100 characters, but keep every option shorter so it is not cut off on phones.
