ClipSonar

ClipSonar is content intelligence for Instagram and TikTok. Paste a public creator or describe a topic, and it breaks down the hooks, formats, and story flow in clips that are already working, then turns that into ideas, scripts, or a calendar.

I built it at SocialSonar as founding engineer, next to the listening product. Native Insights tell you what happened on your own account. ClipSonar is for studying other people's clips, and competitors, without connecting posting access.

How it works

You start from an @handle, a public Instagram or TikTok link, or a short topic brief. Creator Insights deep-dives one account: DNA, win patterns, hooks, a playbook. Topic Insights maps what a category is rewarding before you pick who to study.

The agent answers in plain language from those clips: what's winning, who to watch, a 30-second Reel script, or a week of posts. Analysis includes gist, hook timestamps, story flow, and engagement, plus campaign cost views (ROI, CPV, cost per engagement) when you add spend.

A Claude MCP connection lets teams pull the same clip data into Claude for briefs and scripts. Creator playbooks and video analysis are metered credits on Basic, Pro, and Enterprise.
