the most viral UGC organic content right now is what we call long hook.
and all these shorts can be easily recreated with AI, so you can make them even if you're introverted or lazy (or just don't want to spend hours doing repetitive work).
i'm going to show you exactly how to create them so you don't have to DM 100 creators daily just to be ghosted by everyone and then burn out.
this is the workflow i'm actually using: tiktok -> claude opus 4.7 ->arcads (nano banana pro + seedance 2.0) -> capcut -> tiktok.
## is it better than real UGC?
no.
it's just a different game, and if you understand the difference, you can actually use it to your advantage.
just imagine, you're a vibe coder excited to ship your app but you end up with 0 real users and you really don't know how to start getting traction.
then you see on X that you can create a UGC farm but wait, you're introverted or you don't want to lose time sending 100 DMs every day just to be ghosted and end up with 0 creators after 1 month.
most people are saying that you should pay them $1 CPM (even i was saying this), but let's be real, at the end of the day they're human and no one's going to consistently create content for you for pennies.
if you find a real UGC creator, you'll quickly realize that you need to pay them like $150 weekly + bonus or you'll lose them for your competitors.
## here's the solution
i can say that i found a good balance between laziness and actually grinding with this workflow.
yes, i'm lazy and i want to focus on what i like to do (building my app, creating content, not being a virtual assistant all day).
## step 1: scroll 5m daily
in order to get some real traction, you should understand how gen z thinks and you can easily do this by watching what is going viral right now.
but you shouldn't scroll meme content.
here's what i'm doing to find viral formats every day (as you can see i'm posting most of them on my X account).
open tiktok and write what your users could search (use it as a SEO tool, not just for entertainment).
