SigmoraRetention Analysis
Video retention analysis for short-form teams
Sigmora helps creators and growth teams inspect where attention drops, understand why a video holds, and convert those findings into the next script or scene plan.
Quick answer
What is video retention analysis software?
Video retention analysis software examines where viewers stop watching and which creative decisions help them continue. Sigmora connects those signals to the hook, pacing, proof, transitions, and CTA so a creator or editor can turn the diagnosis into the next script or scene plan.
What Sigmora surfaces
Hook strength, pacing risk, proof timing, and CTA placement in a structure that is usable by operators, not just analysts.
Why teams use it
It shortens the gap between noticing a good video and shipping a better version of the underlying pattern.
Workflow
From a retention signal to the next creative decision
- Start with the opening. Check whether the first scene makes the promise and audience clear before asking the viewer to keep watching.
- Trace the handoffs. Inspect the transition from hook to context, context to proof, and proof to CTA for pauses or repetition.
- Separate evidence from polish. Identify whether the video earns attention through a demonstration, result, example, or merely adds visual effects.
- Carry the finding forward. Turn the strongest pattern into a new brief, script, or scene plan and test the new execution.

FAQ
Video retention analysis questions
What should video retention analysis help me decide?
It should show whether the opening creates the right expectation, where pacing weakens, whether proof arrives soon enough, and whether the CTA follows naturally from the value delivered.
Is retention analysis the same as a virality score?
No. A single score ranks an outcome. Retention analysis is diagnostic: it breaks the video into decisions a writer, creator, or editor can change in the next version.
Can I turn an analysis into a new script?
Yes. Sigmora carries the useful structural findings into a new script or scene plan so the analysis becomes a production input instead of another dashboard to inspect.
