Scripts is where research becomes something you make. You write in a normal editor, with the videos that already work in your niche pinned next to the draft, and a check you can run before you film. Open it at app.wholana.com/scripts.

​
The board

Every script has one of three statuses: The board counts Drafts, Ready to shoot, Posted, and your average references per script, and sorts by Recently edited, Most references, or Status. It is the middle of the Dashboard production funnel.

​
Starting a script

Four ways in, all of which beat a blank page:
  • Turn into script from a swipe in your Swipe file. The swipe comes along as a reference.
  • Add to script from the right-click menu on any video card.
  • New script from the board, or ⌘K then Create script “your title”.
  • Send a voice note or a typed idea to the WhatsApp bot and a draft is waiting for you.

​
The reference rail

The rail beside the editor has two halves. References are the videos you pinned, the working material. Add them from Add references, which offers two tabs: Collections (add one video, or Add all from a whole Swipe file collection at once) and Search. Each reference can carry its own note, answering Why this reference? Like your draft fills itself. Wholana reads your title and body as a search query and finds proven videos on the same idea, up to 12 at a time. Pin any of them into References with one click. The candidate list freezes while you type so it never flickers. When your draft has changed enough to matter, an Update results button appears. Write at least a few lines before expecting anything useful here: the search gets sharper as the draft grows.
Changed recently: scripts used to have angle sections and a suggestions panel. Both are retired. A script is now a title plus a freeform body, and the rail’s automatic half is Like your draft. There is no separate subject tag to set: your draft is the seed.

​
The script check

The editor footer has Check script. It reads your draft the way Craft reads a posted video, then reports back in two places: Beside the lines they point at, as gutter chips:
  • Hook: the opening it found, which hook archetype it is, and how specific it is.
  • Call to action: the explicit ask, if there is one.
  • Share trigger: the most sendable beat, and which shareability driver it leans on.
On the rail, as a Script check card, for the things that describe the whole draft:
  • Structure: which narrative structure the draft follows.
  • Stakes: which stake type it puts at risk, and whether the stake is universal enough for a stranger to care.
  • Subject: whether the draft names what it is about.
The check never runs while you type. It runs when you ask, and freezes until you ask again. After a meaningful edit the button changes to Re-check script.
The check reads text only. It cannot see your delivery, your filming, or your edit, so a script that passes every check can still miss. Treat it as a proofread, not a verdict.

​
While you write

  • Spoken length: the gutter estimates how long the draft takes to say out loud, so you can cut before you film rather than after.
  • Live collaboration: on a Team workspace, several people can edit one script at once and see each other’s cursors.
  • Link a posted video: once you have posted, attach the real TikTok to the script so Your videos knows where it came from.
