Ready-to-Use Tools

Plug-and-Play Claude Prompts

Use these exact prompts in Claude after connecting Ootto to trigger deep competitor scans and viral script creation.

P1 Competitor Scan

1M+ Reel Deconstruction

Extracts hook style, frame pacing, thumbnail patterns, and engagement triggers from any viral competitor profile.

Use @Ootto to inspect @[CompetitorUsername]. Find their top 3 reels that crossed 500k+ views in the last 60 days. Break down: 1) The exact 0-3 second spoken & visual hook, 2) The pattern interrupt transition, 3) Why the retention didn't drop. Then create 2 alternative concepts in my niche with identical hook architecture.

P2 Content Calendar

30-Day Autopilot Calendar

Generates a categorized reel calendar organized by Reach, Authority, and DM Lead Generation pillars.

Using @Ootto analytics from my profile, analyze my top-performing posts by save/share ratio. Generate a 30-day reel calendar with: Day, Pillar (Discovery / Trust / Conversion), 3-sec visual hook, core pain point, and ManyChat trigger keyword for auto-DMs. Keep it tailored to Indian tech & creator audience.

P3 Remotion & Code

High-Retention Script & Remotion Code

Turns any chosen topic into a 25-30 second spoken Hinglish script with full Remotion React code.

Write a punchy 25-second Hinglish script on [My Topic] following the 'Competitor Exposer' framework. Include: 1) Voiceover lines with natural pauses, 2) Second-by-second on-screen visual prompts. Next, generate the full single-file Remotion component code (AdvancedReel.tsx) with spring physics and dark-mode Mac UI mockups.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is connecting Instagram to Claude safe for my account? ↓

Yes. The Ootto connector uses standard Instagram Graph API & Meta Developer tokens with read-only access for content analysis. It does not violate Instagram terms when used for analytics and drafting scripts.

Can I run Remotion without video editing software like Premiere or CapCut? ↓

Yes! Remotion is a programmatic video creation framework built on React. You run a single terminal command (`npx remotion render`) and it exports full 1080x1920 MP4 files at 60 FPS directly through code.

How do I automate sending this exact link to commenters? ↓

Set up a ManyChat trigger rule: Whenever someone comments the keyword "OOTTO" or "REEL" on your Instagram post, trigger an automated DM response containing the URL of this deployed ASP.NET Core page!
