Viral Library

Find what's working in your niche. Make it work for your content.

Discover the posts outperforming others in your niche, understand what makes them work, and turn their hooks, structures, and topics into ideas for your own content.

Viral Library is a Claude skill that researches TikTok, Instagram, YouTube, and LinkedIn for you, then organizes everything into a library you can use whenever you need inspiration.

One-time purchase. Lifetime access. Works with Claude.ai, Cowork, and Claude Code.

Spending more time researching content than creating it?

You open TikTok for inspiration. Save a few videos. Check Instagram. Scroll through competitors' posts.

An hour later, you've collected a bunch of ideas, but you're still not sure what to make.

And even when you find a viral post, how do you know whether the content was exceptional or the creator simply has a massive audience?

That's why I built Viral Library.

It finds posts that aren't just popular, but perform better than their creators' usual content. Then it breaks down their hooks, structures, and topics so you can use those insights in your own work.

More than a list of viral videos.

Viral Library doesn't just show you successful posts. It helps you understand what you can learn from them.

Hooks you can adapt

Get the actual opening lines from high-performing videos, word for word from their transcripts or subtitles.

Each hook includes a fill-in-the-blank formula and a short explanation of why it might have worked.

Script structures that work

See how successful posts are built, from their opening hooks to the way they deliver information and keep viewers interested.

Use those structures as inspiration for your own scripts.

Topics worth creating content about

Discover the questions, problems, and ideas attracting attention in your niche, so you're not starting every content brainstorm from scratch.

Captions, hashtags, and video lengths

Explore the patterns behind successful posts, including how they're captioned, how long they are, and which hashtags they use.

Everything in one place

Your research comes together in a browsable HTML library, with links to every original post.

And whenever you want fresh ideas, you can expand it with new research.

This isn't a mockup.

Below is the actual library it created, complete with real hooks, content structures, topic insights, and links to the original posts.

Go ahead, explore it.

This example comes from a real research run. Your results will depend on your niche, platforms, and the qualifying posts available.

Not every viral post is worth learning from.

A video with a million views might look impressive. But if the creator has five million followers, is that really unusual?

Viral Library looks beyond total views to find posts that stand out.

First, the post needs strong performance.

It must rank in the top 25% of the search results, with at least 10,000 views on video platforms or 50 reactions on LinkedIn.

Second, it needs to outperform the creator's usual content.

A creator going from 10,000 views per post to 200,000 is more interesting than a massive account getting its usual numbers.

Those are the kinds of posts Viral Library investigates.

The goal isn't to copy anyone. It's to find promising hooks, topics, and formats you can make your own.

How it works

01

Tell Claude about your niche.

Share your business, target audience, and the platforms you create content for.

If you already have strategy documents or competitor research, Claude can use those too.

02

Let Claude do the research.

It generates search queries, finds relevant posts, and checks which ones meet its performance criteria.

You don't need to know which creators to look for.

03

Explore your library.

Get an organized HTML page with standout posts, hooks, reusable formulas, script structures, topics, and more.

The default target is 30 posts from the past six months, but you can start with a smaller test run.

04

Grow it whenever you want.

Just tell Claude:

"Grow my viral library."

It searches for fresh content and adds new findings without duplicating what's already there.

Made for people who create content.

Content creators

Find fresh ideas, hooks, and formats without spending hours scrolling for inspiration.

Business owners

Discover what gets attention in your niche and use those insights to plan your own content.

Social media managers

Research different client niches and build separate libraries to support your content strategies.

Viral Library handles the research. You bring the creativity.

Just the research, or the whole system.

Instant digital download. 14-day refund. Apify usage is billed separately.
The Studio comes with its own copy of Viral Library, so buying Viral Library on its own doesn't take anything off the Studio's price later.

What does it cost to run?

Viral Library uses Apify to collect real social media data.

Apify currently offers $5 of free monthly usage, and a typical research run costs approximately $0.60–$2 per platform.

You pay Apify directly, and Claude estimates the cost before running any paid searches. Every paid step also has a spending limit.

A full library, about 30 posts$0.70–1.40

TikTok

Apify's free plan: $5 a monthFits

You could build a library like this every month without paying Apify anything.

These costs are estimates based on Apify's prices in October 2026. The real cost of a run depends on the platform and how much data is collected, and Apify can change its prices at any time. Apify bills your account directly, so The Igniting Studio isn't responsible for Apify charges and can't refund them.

Frequently asked questions

Do I need to know which creators to research?
No. Claude creates search queries based on your niche and audience.
Do I need coding experience?
No coding is required, but you'll need to install the skill and connect Apify. Setup instructions are included.
Does it create content for me?
No. Viral Library is a research tool that helps you find ideas, hooks, and structures you can adapt for your content.
Will it work in my niche?
It can research many different niches, but the number of qualifying posts depends on what's available. If only a few posts meet the criteria, your library will be smaller rather than filled with irrelevant examples.
Do I need to pay for Apify?
You can start with its free monthly usage credit. Additional research may require paid usage.
Can I use it for clients?
Yes. You can build separate libraries for different clients under the single-user commercial license.
Does this guarantee viral content?
No. It gives you real examples and performance insights to inform your content decisions, not guaranteed results.
Which Claude plan do I need?
You'll need access to a Claude environment that supports the skill and Apify connector.
Is Viral Library part of a bigger system?
Yes. It's the first step of the Igniting Content Studio, which also plans your content, writes your filming cards, edits your videos and writes the posts. The Studio has its own copy of Viral Library, so what you pay for Viral Library on its own isn't taken off the Studio's price. If you think you'll want the whole system, start with the Studio.
