These manuals are for the public Draft to Take beta in this repository, including the Windows installer preview and Docker launcher fallback.
This repo does not contain the private Draft to Take source code or model weights. It starts the public beta containers, stores your data locally, and downloads supported models into your own machine.
- Releases page - download the Windows installer preview or the Docker launcher ZIP from the newest Draft to Take beta release.
- User Manual - the main app walkthrough, from first launch to exported mix.
- Tutorial Series - short video scripts and shot lists for the beginner flow.

The launcher keeps projects, models, voices, and generated audio outside this release folder:
%USERPROFILE%\DraftToTake\shared
That means you can update or replace this beta launcher without losing your local projects or downloaded models.
