AI Script Refinement
Select text in your script and use the slash commands to refine it with AI:
- AI Expand -- Adds more details, examples, and vivid descriptions while keeping the original topic
- AI Shorten -- Removes redundancy and condenses to the core message
- AI Rewrite -- Improves phrasing to be more professional, fluent, and engaging
Each AI refinement consumes 2 credits.
Script Statistics
The script panel displays useful metrics at the top:
- Character count -- Total characters in your script
- Estimated duration -- Approximate reading time based on average speaking speed (about 300 characters per minute for Chinese, 150 words per minute for English)
Tips for Great Scripts
- Start with a hook -- grab attention in the first few seconds
- Use clear structure -- organize with headings matching your canvas pages
- Keep it conversational -- write the way you speak
- Include transitions -- guide viewers between pages smoothly
- End with a call to action -- tell viewers what to do next
