Choose topic, script, or audio input
Start from the material you already trust.
Prepare
Use topic input when the question is clear but the wording is open. Write the audience, scope, and required sources into the brief. A narrow question gives the editor a clearer job than a broad subject such as “history.”
Work through the decision
Use script input when names, figures, quotations, or an approved argument must survive. Read the imported text before requesting a quote. Keep a separate copy of the original so you can compare revisions.
Review the result
Use audio input when your recording is the narration. Listen for clipping, long silence, and missing sentences before uploading. An unclear recording makes transcription and timing harder; a title does not repair the audio.
