Auto Mode vs Manual Mode

When you’re ready to create a video, you will choose between two distinct workflows. The difference isn’t just about buttons, it’s about Speed vs. Control.

🅰️ Auto Mode (The Speed Path)

Best for: Rapid testing, high-volume production, or using Custom scripts.

This is the fastest way to go from idea to video. You provide your Prompt or paste a Custom Script, select your duration, and Vidrush handles the rest automatically.

  • What Vidrush Does: The system automatically finds a suitable reference video, determines the target audience, and identifies key emphasis points without you needing to click through extra steps.
  • Using Custom Scripts: If you paste a script here, the Format and Duration fields are automatically disabled, as the AI calculates the exact video length based on your word count.
  • Strategic Use: Use this when you want to “test fast and fail fast” to find a winning niche, or when you have a polished script ready to go.

Ⓜ️ Manual Mode (The Precision Path)

Best for: High-quality channel building, brand consistency, and specific styling.

Manual Mode gives you granular control over the creative DNA of your video. After providing your prompt, you actively guide the AI through specific decisions:

  • The Reference Video: This is the most powerful tool in Manual Mode. You can link a specific YouTube video for the AI to analyze.

    • Pro Tip: Use a human-narrated video as your reference. This forces the AI to mimic natural human pacing and sentence structure, avoiding the “robotic” feel of standard AI scripts, you can use our reference video list
  • Audience & Tone: You specify exactly who is watching and what facts must be emphasized.
