Cards are easy to spam and easy to ignore. The professional move is one card at the moment the viewer has a reason to click — after a result, not during a warning they must hear. This planner maps card types to timestamps from your outline.
How to use this tool
- List major beats with times.
- Assign at most 1–2 cards.

Card types with a job
Video cards for a sequel. Playlist cards for a course. Link cards (when eligible) for a documented resource. Polls for community. If every video has four cards in the first minute, you trained people to dismiss them.
Professional notes
- Do not cover critical on-screen text with the card teaser.
- Match the card title to the spoken sentence.
