Sources
The shelf of material the agent writes from.
A source is something the workspace keeps to write from: an article, a pasted brief, a document, a talk. It outlives the post it first produced, so the same product page can generate three posts on three different days without being supplied again.
What you can add
| Type | What happens |
|---|---|
| URL | The page is fetched and the readable text extracted |
| Text | Pasted directly. A brief, notes, a positioning doc |
| File | A document, read into text |
| Video | Transcribed, and the transcript becomes the source |
Extraction is billed as AI usage. Reusing a source afterwards costs nothing.
Why keep them
The alternative is pasting the same brief into the composer every time, which means the wording drifts and nobody can tell which version a post was written from. A shelf keeps the raw material in one place and lets the agent cite what it used.
Using one
Pick sources when asking the agent for content. A single generation can draw on up to five, which is enough to write a launch post from a product page, a positioning doc, and a transcript at once.
Usage
Each source shows what has been made from it. Handy for noticing a webinar transcript has produced eleven posts and is probably exhausted.
Sources and brands
A source is the what. A brand is the how. Give the agent both and you get content that is about the right thing and sounds like you.
