The workflow

Discover demand → qualify the gap → create angles → optimize the video → distribute variations → measure search and installs

1. Find Content Gaps

Open TikTok Creator Search Insights and start with categories related to:

Apply the Content Gap filter. Save the promising searches instead of immediately turning every result into a video.

2. Qualify each gap

Score every topic from 1–5 across these dimensions:

Signal Question
Product fit Can the app solve or demonstrate something directly related to this search?
Intent Does the search suggest a problem, decision, or desired outcome?
Visual potential Can the answer be understood through a strong first frame or demonstration?
Angle depth Can the topic produce at least 10 distinct videos?
Conversion path Is there a natural reason to try or install the app after watching?

Prioritize gaps with strong product fit, visible proof, and enough depth for variations.

3. Turn one gap into 10 angles
