SAGE Script

Vet, optimize and green‑light TVC or social‑video scripts in under a minute—at a fraction of today’s cost—while matching human‑expert quality.

What it is

Sage Script is a Synthetic Expert on the Brainsuite platform that evaluates communication scripts (e.g., TVC, social‑video) before you invest in storyboards or animatics. It applies 100+ neuroscience and behavioral‑science principles and provides human‑grade analysis with clear, actionable guidance.

Why use it

✅ Faster: Results in about a minute per script, enabling same‑day iteration. 

✅ Better: Human‑grade judgments validated against PhD expert ratings, plus consistent outputs that remove opinion-driven debates.

✅ Cheaper: Screen every idea at a fraction of the cost of panels and late‑stage revisions.

What to test

  • TVC scripts (6s/15s/30s)

  • Social‑video scripts

  • Narration/VO, supers, key scenes

  • Optional: upload a Brand Document to evaluate strategic/brand fit

Effectiveness drivers (evaluation lenses)

  1. Attention – does the story capture and sustain attention?

  2. Recognition – are brand and key messages clear?

  3. Motivation – does it engage and inspire desired action?

How it works

  1. Upload your script (PDF/JPG). 

  2. (Optional) Upload Brand Document for context. 

  3. Brief the expert (project name; soon: brand, product, target group, spot length, segment, format). 

  4. Review the result: traffic‑light overview for the three pillars and concise, practical recommendations for each lens.

When to use it

✅ Briefing & concept framing: Upload your draft script or narrative outline. (Optional) add a Brand Document so Sage judges not only effectiveness but also brand/strategic fit.

✅ Early script drafting (agency’s first routes): Evaluate voice‑over, key scenes and supers to clarify message architecture and integrate branding from the start.

✅ Route comparison & convergence: A/B/C multiple scripts to select the strongest route using Attention, Recognition and Motivation lenses; sharpen hook, branding and persuasion.

✅ Pre‑storyboard gate: Run Sage Script before commissioning storyboards or animatics to de‑risk costly production steps and avoid locking in blind spots.

✅ Rapid iteration loop with creatives: Apply Sage Script recommendations and re‑test in minutes—repeat until the route is ready to green‑light.

✅ Handoff to execution: Once a route is locked, move to ACE to quantify the produced asset before launch.

Business impact

  • Test every idea instantly to reduce costly late changes.

  • Shorten decision cycles from weeks to minutes.

  • Increase hit‑rate of produced assets by catching issues before execution.

  • Objective, consistent guidance enables smoother alignment across Marketing, Insights and Agencies.

Validation at a glance

  • >85% agreement with a senior human expert across core pillars (Attention, Recognition, Motivation).

  • ~0.98 inter‑run reliability (repeat the same script → same output). 
    Designed to complement ACE: use Sage early for qualitative guidance, then quantify executed assets with ACE before launch.

FAQs

Q: Does Sage Script replace consumer research?
A: No. It complements it by giving expert‑level guidance earlier, so you bring stronger ideas to later-stage testing.

Q: Will Sage Script always give the same result?
A: For the same input, results are highly consistent; if you iterate the script, you will see changes that reflect your edits.

Q: Can Sage Script evaluate non-video formats?
A: Sage Script focuses on communication scripts (TVC/social video). Additional Synthetic Experts (e.g., Storyboard) follow the same principles and will join brainsuite soon.

Q: Why do I see “Areas for improvement” if my pillar is green?

A: The goal of Sage Script is to be helpful and provide guidance and tips for further improvement. The primary goal is not to implement a pass/fail threshold (in comparison to ACE) but rather to learn and maximize the potential of storyboard.

Q: Does Sage Script learn from my tests?
A: Sage Script will not learn from your tests/assets directly. There are two ways of optimizing: Scientific guidelines and user feedback. Both are constantly iterated upon and integrated into the app. But our priority remains: reliability over improvement. Our highest goal is, that your asset will receive the same output-evaluation irrespective of updates in scientific guidelines or feedback.

Q: Is there a recommended asset/file size?
A: Yes. The better (higher quality) the asset/file is, the easier it is for the model to extract the text. However, there are also some limitations caused by the processing: The uploaded asset/file (jpg, png, pdf) cannot exceed 5 MB in file size. Furthermore, it is recommended that the asset/file has a minimum of 200px for each side. If the resolution is less than 200px, text extraction can be negatively affected, which may cause inaccurate results.
