The reality

You've been here before.

01

A competitor posts a video. It hits a million views.

You watch it three times and still can't figure out what they did differently.

02

You spend a full day shooting and editing. You post it.

Two hundred views. No way to know which part to fix.

03

You're about to publish a draft.

You suspect something's off. Nobody to ask. You post it anyway.

Here's the fix

Paste it. See the structure. Fix what's broken.

Lomero turns any public Reel, TikTok, or Short, or your own MP4 draft, into an annotated breakdown. You stop guessing why videos work and start applying what does.

  • Hook scored against patterns that actually work

    Your first three seconds get rated against the patterns proven to stop the scroll, not against a vague benchmark.

  • Every beat of the video labeled

    Hook, context, problem, CTA. Each segment scored and annotated. You see the shape of a winning video, not just the result.

  • Specific fixes, not generic advice

    Not “your hook is weak.” Instead: “viewers drop at 0:08. Add a pattern interrupt before your payoff.”

Check your video before you post

Upload your draft. We don’t say “the opening is weak.” We say “people stop watching at 0:08 — here’s what to change.” Specific. Useful. Before it goes live.

How Lomero is different

Other tools clip, caption, or score your hook. Lomero tells you what to change, segment by segment, for free.

Here is where the overlap with the tools people run alongside ours ends.

Built For

For people who post videos to grow or sell.

Creators and founders

You post a few times a week. You sell something — a course, a product, a service, your name. Videos are how you grow your business, not a hobby.

  • Check every video before you post
  • See examples from creators your size (not Hormozi if you have 10K)
  • Find out what’s working right now in your space

Studios and agencies

You make videos for other people. You need to keep quality high across many accounts. “Trust me, it’s good” doesn’t scale.

  • Manage many creators in one place (coming soon)
  • Check a batch of clips at once
  • See what works in each space, for each size of creator
  • Same quality bar across every client
Analyze any creator

Paste any of their links. Get the hook, structure, pacing, and the exact fixes behind their best videos.

How the scores are made

Scores aren't guesses. Here's the pipeline.

Every number Lomero shows you comes from a three-stage pipeline you can inspect. No mystery model giving vibes.

01 · Capture

Transcribe every spoken word

Audio runs through a Whisper-based model fine-tuned for short-form pacing. Accuracy holds across dozens of languages, even with music, edits, and overlapping voices.

OpenAI Whisper · speaker diarisation
02 · Structure

Segment the video into beats

A language model labels each segment: hook, context, problem, reveal, CTA. You see the shape of the video, not just the text.

Claude · custom rubric
03 · Score

Rate each beat against what works

Each segment is scored against patterns proven to hold attention on Instagram, TikTok, and YouTube Shorts. Scores are explainable, not black-box.

Frequently Asked Questions

You give us a video — yours or anyone else’s — and we tell you what’s good, what’s not, and what to change. Works for Reels, TikTok, and YouTube Shorts.

No. We don’t make videos. We help you make better ones. If you want AI to create video for you, tools like Higgsfield, Runway, and Pika do that — and Lomero works alongside them.

VidIQ and TubeBuddy show you stats after you post on YouTube. We help you BEFORE you post, and we work on TikTok and Instagram too. Opus Clip turns long videos into short ones — we tell you if those short ones are good before you share them.

No. Nobody can. We compare your video to ones that already worked in your space and tell you what’s similar and what’s different. That’s it.

Yes. Every video we look at helps us get better at finding patterns. We say this in our Terms of Service. If you don’t want that, this isn’t the right tool for you.
