Hypit

Hypit is an open-source tool that lets AI agents clone viral video formats. By dropping in a reference video, Hypit rebuilds its shots, pacing, captions, and effects using your own content, helping creators and marketers reproduce proven video structures at scale rather than starting from scratch.

Key Features

• Full-video cloning: Hypit rebuilds a reference video's shots, pacing, captions, B-roll, and effects with your content, so a working format can be adapted rather than recreated manually.
• Agent-driven creation: Describe the video you want and an agent plans, generates, and assembles it. Hypit is compatible with agents such as Claude and Codex.
• Batch scale: Generate 10, 50, or 100+ variants per run to test many versions of a format.
• Templates: Start from proven formats such as podcast clips, street interviews, dialogue, or video calls, browsable on GitHub.
• Open-source control: Fork, modify, or self-host the open-source core, and bring your own model via BYOK or use the Hypit API.
• Quick setup: Install via a single command (npx skills add hypit-ai/hypit -g) or use the open web app.

Typical Use Cases

• Scaling a winning format: When a video performs well, clone its structure and swap in your own footage, captions, and effects to produce multiple variants for testing.
• Rapid variant testing: Run batches of 10 to 100+ versions to compare pacing, hooks, or captions across a format.
• Agent-assisted production: Describe a target video to an AI agent and let it plan, generate, and assemble the result.
• Building on templates: Use documented formats like podcasts or street interviews as a starting point and adapt them to your content.

How It Works

1. Provide a reference video whose format you want to reproduce.
2. Hypit analyzes and rebuilds its shots, pacing, captions, and effects.
3. Substitute your own content into the cloned structure.
4. Optionally run batches to produce many variants, or drive the process through a compatible AI agent.

Who It's For

Hypit suits video creators, social media teams, and marketers who want to reproduce video formats that already perform well, and developers who prefer an open-source tool they can fork, self-host, or connect to their own models. It is also useful for teams already working with AI coding agents that want a command-line path to video generation.
