Who it’s for

Creators, freelancers, musicians and businesses that need images, video or writing.

Adapt it to your industry

  • Restaurant: short videos of dishes with captions
  • Coach: turn one talk into clips, posts and a newsletter
  • Agency: produce first drafts for clients faster

Step by step

  1. Pick one repeatable format (a 30-second tip video, a weekly post, a product image).
  2. Open ChatGPT, Claude or Grok and paste the prompt below with your topic.
  3. Ask for 5 scripts or drafts, then pick the best one.
  4. Make the visuals in Canva, CapCut or an AI image/video tool, using only material you have the rights to.
  5. Edit the result so it sounds like you and check facts.
  6. Post it, then reuse the same template for the next piece.
