Save the review outcome, chosen direction, and open questions you want to retain in the Book. Before the next shot, select the records that are useful.
What can you save in an AI‑video pre‑production Book?
- Direction
Visual references and creative direction.
Visual references, style cues, framing, mood, story beats, and short notes about what is worth carrying forward.
- Sources
Source links and project files.
Web pages, images, links, video sources, files, and the original context that makes a reference usable.
- Feedback
Feedback, decisions, and open questions.
Creative review outcomes, selected directions, and open questions you choose to save as project records for the next task.
A comparison: scattered pre‑production files versus a video project Book.
Folders, tabs, and chatsWith Sourcebook
Visual direction
References and story ideas live in separate tabs, folders, and chat threads.
Keep the selected visual direction, sources, and notes in one project Book.
Source material
Images, clips, links, and local files lose the reason they were saved.
Keep selected material with its source and a note about why it matters.
Review outcome
A decision from a review disappears into another thread or version.
Record the outcome, chosen direction, and open questions you want to retain in the Book.
What reaches AI
Paste from memory or hand over a large, unfocused file pile.
Select only the context for this shot and review suggestions before keeping them.
Collect from the web with Picker.
Picker is an optional browser extension. Save selected web text, images, links, or AI‑chat turns to the current Book while keeping the original source attached.

QwenQ&A
Does Sourcebook generate AI video?
No. Sourcebook organizes pre‑production references, direction, source material, and review outcomes you choose to keep. Generation and editing stay in the video tool you choose.
Do I have to give an AI my whole project?
No. Select only the material relevant to this shot, script, or review. Pack never sends a whole Book automatically.
Is Picker required?
No. Picker is an optional browser extension for saving selected web text, images, links, or supported AI‑chat turns with their source.
Which agents does Connect support today?
Connect currently supports Codex and WorkBuddy. With other tools, Pack can still prepare the materials and notes you selected.
