From spoken word to published page
Fourteen steps. Most are quick. The whole flow is yours to direct.
- 1
Create a project
Name it. Describe the speaker. A conversation with Hugo helps shape what comes next.
- 2
Upload your sources
Audio files, video, or a YouTube channel you control. Multiple recordings can become a single coherent book.
- 3
Attest your rights
Direct upload + speaker consent, OAuth-verified channel ownership, speaker attestation with identity proof, or documented license. No AI processing begins without one.
- 4
We analyze
Transcription, voice fingerprinting, atmosphere extraction, idea mapping. We learn how you speak and what you teach.
- 5
Recommendation
We score your source against eight product types and recommend the best fit: a full book, sermon study guide, devotional, workbook, and more. You can accept or pick differently.

Outline collaboration
Drag chapters into order. Confirm timeline. Fill in gaps. Your structural decisions before generation cost nothing; after generation they cost revision rounds.
