Big Idea / Hooks

In Big Idea mode: one defining campaign concept (headline + territory + insight). In Social Hook mode: a Kanban of hooks mapped to every awareness stage.

Big Idea
AIAccepted
Headline
Strategy shouldn't slow you down.
Creative Territory

A world where strategic thinking is as fast as execution — where the best idea wins, not the team with the biggest brief-writing budget.

Core Insight

Creative teams aren't slow because they lack talent — they're slow because strategic frameworks live in consultants' decks, not in their workflow.

5
Format Executions

Select format templates and the AI generates a concept outline per hook-format pair — ready to hand to a writer or director.

Choose when you create a project. Sets the creative logic for the entire workflow.

S
Social Hook Mode
Many hooks, many entry points.

Best for

  • Organic content calendars
  • Email subject line testing
  • A/B testing creative angles at scale
B
Big Idea Mode
One idea, every channel.

For brand campaigns that need a single unifying concept — a creative territory that travels consistently across all channels. Produces one defining Big Idea, then adapts it into channel-specific briefs.

Best for
  • Brand campaigns and rebrands
  • Product launches with multi-channel rollout
  • Integrated campaigns (TV, OOH, digital, retail)
  • Campaign pitches and presentations
