This is the whole thing ShortLens hands you.
Hook score, the retention curve with the drop located and explained, the beat timeline, and one fix to try next. Every number is read from your channel.
Every analytics tab shows you numbers. Numbers were never the problem.

Read the review
What worked, where viewers left and why, and one specific thing to try on your next upload.
The retention curve, finally attached to a reason.
- Every drop located on your real curve, to the second
- Tied to the moment in the video that caused it
- Measured vs content-inferred: always labeled
AI writes the why. Your data supplies the where.
A hook score you can read mid-scroll.
- 0 to 100 on a banded scale, reasoning underneath
- An alternative hook, written for that video
- Beats on a timeline, proportional to real duration
Scored by watching your actual video, not your title.
It learns what works on your channel. Not "channels like yours."
- +98% views on longer cuts, +142% on Saturday uploads
- Computed from your analyzed Shorts only
- One line: what to try next
Every figure is derived from your data before the AI is allowed to mention it.
