Best practices to help you get started

  • Use prompt to make changes to suggestions: You can enter your own or make changes to any suggestion using the “Let’s brainstorm” section. You can adjust the suggestions for any card by entering a new prompt and refreshing the section.

Examples of prompts to get your started:

  • For outlines: “Incorporate humor,” “mention challenges,” or include fan theories.”
  • For titles: “Make it concise,” “pose a question,” or “include numbers.”
  • For thumbnails: "Chocolate desserts" or "low top basketball shoes."
  • Understand audience interest: You may see your audience's interest level on new video ideas. These audience interests are based on videos that have been watched by your audience over 1,000 times per week and over the last 28 days. This ranges from very low to very high.
  • Undo and redo: You can go back and forth between ideas using the Undo  and redo .
  • Save your ideas: Be sure to save your ideas as you go. You can easily save any ideas to continue later on by using Saved ideas.
