Build and review your script

1. 01Choose the material for your script

   In your Research Hub channel, select Script Builder. Choose research from Latest Sources or Saved Sources; within either, you can select Ideas, Articles, and Clusters. You can also begin with Generate Script on an idea detail to bring its research into Script Builder.

   You may choose one idea and up to 15 unique underlying articles in a single request. Articles included through clusters and ideas count too; overlapping articles are counted once. Check the selected-items summary and remove any sources that exceed the allowance or don't fit the draft.

   Choose sources that support your topic and contribute different useful details. Use Saved Sources for older research you kept.

   Where to find your research

   Latest Sources

   Browse current articles, clusters and generated ideas from the channel's latest research.

   Saved Sources

   Choose articles, clusters or ideas you deliberately preserved for later use.

   What to select

   Ideas

   Use a generated video idea as the concept for the script. Select at most one idea per request.

   Articles

   Choose individual reports you want the script to draw from.

   Clusters

   Include related coverage around a topic; the cluster's linked articles count toward the 15-article limit.

2. 02Set the direction, length and language

   Select Generate Script to open the form. Set SCRIPT TITLE, VIDEO LENGTH (MINUTES) (1–120) and VIDEO LANGUAGE. Use Other (type custom) when the desired language is not listed.

   What these fields control: Script Title identifies the saved draft, Video Length guides how much narration TrendyTube writes, and Video Language chooses the language of that narration. The target minutes help plan the amount of script content; actual spoken duration will depend on your pace.

   If you selected a video idea, decide whether the script should follow its proposed outline.

   Use the Idea's Outline?

   Yes — recommended

   Follow the idea's proposed sequence and key talking points when you like its structure.

   No — freeform script

   Keep the selected idea and research, but let TrendyTube create a different structure informed by your channel's writing and speaking style.

3. 03Decide whether to add titles and descriptions

   You can generate only the script, or turn on Generate Titles and/or Generate Descriptions to create upload copy alongside it. These options have their own keyword and writing-style settings, separate from the channel-style context used for the narration.

   In manual keyword mode, confirm and select up to five title keywords or ten description keywords. Review Advanced Settings → See More if you want additional controls for title type, structure, length and formality, or description opening, tone and summary. You can generate titles or descriptions again from the saved script later.

   Optional upload assets

   Generate Titles

   Enable this to include YouTube title suggestions with the script.

   Generate Descriptions

   Enable this to include YouTube description suggestions with the script.

   Choose keywords for each optional title or description

   Pick Automatic Keywords

   Let TrendyTube select related keywords for the title or description.

   Pick Manual Keywords

   Enter, confirm and check the terms you specifically want to use, within the limit for that asset.

   No Keywords

   Generate the title or description without selected keywords.

   Writing style for each enabled asset

   Fresh Ideas

   Generate new copy without following examples from past uploads.

   Match Style

   Select suitable channel title/description examples or add and confirm your own. Select at least one example before generating.

4. 04Check the cost and generate

   Check the selected source counts, video length, language and optional add-ons. Review the displayed combined credit estimate and available balance, then select Generate Script. The estimate reflects the main narration and any enabled title or description add-ons, so disabling an add-on you don't need lets you request only the content you plan to use.

   Open Scripts to follow the request status and return to the completed draft. If you only need narration, leave the optional upload assets off; they can be requested from the saved script later.

5. 05Review the sections and their sources

   Open the completed script and use Script Outline to navigate its sections. Expand the Script Content sections to read the narration. Reopen Linked Ideas, Linked Articles or Linked Clusters when you want to check a source detail, name or date.

   The chapter timings help you plan the video's pacing. Read the narration aloud and refine it before recording.

   Explore the script result

   Script Outline

   Shows the chapter order and available timing markers. Select a section to jump to it.

   Script Content

   Contains the generated narration organized into expandable sections.

   Linked Sources

   Open the related ideas, articles and clusters used to build the draft.

6. 06Copy and refine the draft

   Use the copy controls to take the narration into your writing or recording workflow. In the channel's Scripts list, you can reopen earlier drafts. A script's Titles and Descriptions tabs contain previous upload-copy generations and let you request another version with Generate Title or Generate Description.

   Script page controls

   Copy section

   Copy the narration from an individual script section.

   Copy all

   Copy the full script narration so you can review or adapt it as one continuous draft in your writing or recording workflow.

   Edit title

   Rename the saved script in TrendyTube. This changes the record title, not the narration body.
