Analysis Process

Follow these 9 steps in order:

• Who created it and why?
• What's the intended audience?
• What's the publication context?
• When was it created?

Step 3: Identify Structure

• How is the content organized?
• What are the main sections/segments?
• How long is each part?
• What's the logical flow?
• Are there chapters, timestamps, or markers?

Step 4: Extract Core Ideas

• What are the 3-7 main concepts?
• How are they explained?
• What examples are given?
• How do ideas connect to each other?
• What's the central thesis?

Step 5: Track Narrative Flow

• How does content progress?
• What's the arc (intro → development → conclusion)?
• Where are the key transitions?
• How do ideas build on each other?
• What's the pacing?

Step 6: Find Key Moments

• What are the most important points?
• Where are the "aha" moments?
• What would someone quote from this?
• What's most memorable?
• What's surprising or novel?

Step 7: Extract Quotes + Timestamps

• Find 5-20 verbatim quotes
• For video/audio: note exact timestamps (HH:MM:SS or MM:SS)
• Capture the most insightful statements
• Include context for each quote
• Never paraphrase - exact words only

Step 8: Identify Themes

• What recurring topics emerge?
• What patterns appear throughout?
• What's the underlying message?
• What values or perspectives are expressed?

Step 9: Documentary Angle

• What's the narrative hook that draws people in?
• What makes this content unique?
• What's the emotional arc?
