Set up your first brand
Setting up your first brand takes about five minutes, and most of that time your Director is working — not you. You enter your handle, it studies your recent posts, and you finish with a Brand DNA it uses for everything afterward.
Step 1: Pick your platform and enter your handle
- On the setup screen, choose Instagram or TikTok.
- Type your handle or paste your profile link into the field — either form works, like
instagram.com/creator or @handle. - Click Let my agent learn my brand.
No account yet, or just exploring? Below the field you can pick a ready sample brand and try everything risk-free.
Step 2: Let your agent learn your brand
Now your Director reads your recent public posts — your topics, your voice, your formats, and how people reacted to each post. The scan usually takes a minute or two, and you watch it happen: progress text streams in as it works.
The walkthrough moves through four short steps, shown as tabs: Brand DNA, Accounts, Inspiration, and Calendar. When a step finishes, click Next step to continue. After the last step, the button changes to Plan my first viral video — click it to pick a plan and start producing your first video.
If your account is private or brand new
No public posts? You can still build a Brand DNA from your website.
- Check This is a private or new account.
- A new field appears. Enter your website or blog address, like
brand.com or blog URL. - Click Let my agent learn my brand.
Your Director reads your site’s public text instead of your posts. The result is the same kind of Brand DNA — it just starts from your words rather than your videos.
While you wait: similar accounts
During the scan, the Accounts step fills in with accounts like yours — creators who share your audience and format, each with a one-line reason it matches. Skim them while you wait. These become your first pool of inspiration, and your Director keeps learning from them after setup ends.
You’re set — what you’ll see next
That’s it — your Director knows your brand. When you reach the dashboard, you’ll find:
- A Brand DNA card describing your voice, topics, and audience.
- A first set of content ideas scored against your brand.
- A draft first-week calendar to react to.
If the scan seems to run much longer than a couple of minutes, see When something looks stuck. To understand what was just built, read Your Brand DNA.
