The 5 hook patterns, written for Threads
Tension
Open on a risk, a mistake or a near miss. Example: "I was wrong about [topic] for years."
Specific claim
Lead with a number or a concrete result. Example: "[Specific number] [result], from one small change."
Contrarian
Push back on advice everyone repeats. Example: "Hot take: [claim]."
Unresolved question
Ask what the reader wants answered. Example: "Is [common habit] actually helping anyone?"
Mid-story
Start in the middle of the action. Example: "So this happened at work today."
Why the first lines decide on Threads
The Threads feed shows roughly the first 175 characters before "more", so a full 500-character post is judged on about a third of itself. The hook, the claim or the question goes in the first sentence.
Why a platform-specific hook generator
A hook that works on one network can fail on another: the fold, the format and the reading speed differ. These hooks are written for the first sentence of a post, before "more" on Threads, not as generic openers you then have to cut down.
