How to fill a bracket

Replace every [BRACKET] with your own words. [TOPIC] is your video's subject; the tool fills it in for you when you type a topic in the Build tab.

Where a hook needs a figure it says [NUMBER] or [YOUR VERIFIED NUMBER]. Check any number or fact before you say it. Nothing here invents facts for you.

Tick the box next to a hook when you've used it, so you can see at a glance what's left.
