# Melda OS > Melda OS is an AI content engine for creators. You send Emmy, its writing assistant, a link to an article or a YouTube or TikTok video, and Emmy returns a short brief and a short-form video script saved to a card in your Pipeline. You edit, approve, record, and publish. Melda OS is a web workspace built by creator Preston Chin (700K+ followers). It turns source material into short-form video scripts and keeps each script on a card with its source and approval.
