Free to start · No credit card
No brief. No brief. No creative block. Scan where you are and walk away knowing exactly what to film.
Point your camera at any location — a car park, a rooftop, a gym, a street. PreShoot reads exactly what it sees and builds ideas around it. The more specific the scene, the sharper the ideas.
Pick a video format — Advert, UGC, Viral, Storytelling, Educational, Trial Reel, or Meme. Add any context about your brand or audience. PreShoot locks every idea to that structure.
Six ideas, each with a word-for-word hook, camera angle, editing style, audio direction, and YouTube reference. Link straight to CapCut templates. You show up knowing exactly what you're shooting.
Director is a fully context-aware AI assistant that knows your gear, your niche, your platform, and your scan history. Ask it anything — from hook writing to gear advice to full content calendars.
Every detail is designed to eliminate friction between the location and the finished video.
Set your niche, platform, gear, style and goals once. Every scan is built around your specific world — not generic advice. No two creators get the same output from the same photo.
Every idea links to relevant YouTube videos and CapCut templates. See the shot before you film it, and drop your footage straight into the template.
Sign in with Google and your entire history, saved ideas, Director chats, and settings follow you to every device. Never lose a scan.
Ideas adapted for TikTok, Instagram Reels, YouTube Shorts, Longform, LinkedIn and more — with platform-specific guidance baked into every idea.
