Preparing Your Script Brief in ClickUp

A precise brief helps the ClickUp Scriptwriting AI Agent produce accurate, on-target scripts. Before you run the AI Agent, gather the core details of your video.

Key Elements to Include for ClickUp AI

When you open the Scriptwriting AI Agent, prepare to enter:

Topic or core idea — a one- or two-sentence summary of the video.
Target audience — who will watch the video and what they care about.
Video goal — educate, sell, onboard, entertain, or support.
Desired length — estimated duration (for example, 30 seconds, 2 minutes, or 10 minutes).
Platform — YouTube, social media, internal training, or webinar.
Tone of voice — professional, friendly, humorous, authoritative, or casual.

You can also paste any existing copy or talking points into the ClickUp Doc so the AI Agent can build around your ideas.

Step-by-Step Script Generation in ClickUp

Open your Doc or task where the script will live.
Launch the Scriptwriting AI Agent from the AI tools panel.
Enter your brief into the prompt area, including topic, audience, goal, and tone.
Specify format details, such as:
- On-screen narration vs. voiceover
- Sections, like intro, body, and outro
- Call-to-action you want at the end
Click generate and let the AI Agent create the first draft of your script.
