The four heights
The same task, four distances: today's deadline, the next reviewer, the stuck moment, the pattern.

Execute — do the immediate task
+My captions need to appear on every video so viewers can follow along without sound. Insert captions automatically on the new draft I uploaded, then check the first 30 seconds to ensure timing matches speech and that speaker labels are off. Deliver the video back to me with captions on by Friday at 10:00 so I can approve before boost.

Improve — make it easier to accept
+Before I publish, make the auto captions readable at a glance for people scrolling: move long sentences into shorter caption lines, fix punctuation that breaks meaning, and replace any misheard brand names with the official spellings. Highlight any uncertainty where the generator guessed and flag lines that exceed two rows on small phones.

Decide — diagnose the stuck moment
+Uploaded a draft; auto-captions look wrong in places.
I uploaded a 45-second product demo narrated by Maya and the auto captions split her sentences badly and misheard 'EcoCharge' as 'I charge'. I’m worried the brand will look unprofessional and comments will pick it apart. What’s the likely cause and the fastest fix that I, as the video's editor, should do now?

Become — change the pattern
+Auto-captions often need heavy cleanup after uploads.
Across twenty uploads this quarter, auto captions repeatedly misplace speaker breaks and butcher product names, costing me two hours per video. Where should I change my workflow so captions need minimal edits—what prep, naming conventions, or short scripting habits will save time and prevent brand mistakes?

Every task here came from the work, not from a feature list — which is why the prompts name what you want done and never the button that does it. The tool changes; the work does not.
