When does distrorig fit better?
- Your product lives on a screen. The proof is the dashboard filling, the report appearing, the task getting done. The agent records that in your real product.
- You want the product shown, not described. A creator says the hook, then appears as a circle or cut-out while the recording plays.
- One voice across the ad. If the creator speaks on camera, their voice reads the rest of the voiceover.
- Planning help. The assistant plans shots and script with you and shows a still of the creator before any clip is paid for.
- Posting and numbers. Post to TikTok or YouTube, then see views, likes, comments and shares.
How do I move a campaign over from MakeUGC?
- Keep the hooks and scripts that performed. Paste them into the distrorig chat as the first shot's line.
- Reuse clips if you like. Upload MakeUGC exports to the Library and place them as shots.
- Replace product photos with steps. For each claim, write what the agent should do in the product, like "connect a bank account and show the balance".
- Prepare a demo account with real looking data. The agent signs in with it; the login is encrypted at rest.
- Approve the creator still, then switch to Action mode to generate.
- Test hooks. Keep the recording and change only the first shot for each version.
