Guide and practice for your work

Turn one source into content in different formats

Extract complete ideas from a video or article and choose a format suited to each.

What will you get?A map of ideas with their locations in the original, and pieces ready for review on their platforms.

Let's understand the idea

A long video doesn't need to become ten posts just because you requested that number. It may have one strong idea, or examples and questions each worth their own piece. Extract complete ideas first and keep the context and qualifications.

Then choose the format that serves the idea: a reel for an experience, a carousel for steps, or an article for an explanation. The assistant helps extract, write, and design using available tools. You review the version as if the reader hasn't seen the source.

Examples to expand the idea

A psychologist has an hour-long livestream on work stress. He uploads the transcript and asks for complete ideas only. It produces a reel, a carousel with practical steps, and a post answering a question. Each makes sense without watching the livestream.

  • A YouTube publishing package

    A title, description, chapters from actual timestamps, and thumbnail ideas tied to the content. Don't invent timestamps for a transcript without timing.

  • From a seminar to a newsletter

    Choose one message worth reading and link to the original explanation. Cut repetition and respect the speaker's rights.

  • From an article to an activity

    Extract a question and exercise that assess the idea instead of turning all the text into slides.
