White Tree video: storyboard v4

A complete rebuild around the new site. White Tree is a database, the thing it stores is the decision, TRACER is the record, Dúnedain is the harness, and the payoff is people and agents making the right decision. The frames are key frames in the final look, not sketches.

Cold open

Scene 1 · 0:00 to 0:07

“Somewhere in your company, someone already knows the next decision is wrong.”

Picture and motion

Black. A single Slack message types in word by word, with a soft key tick. A highlight sweeps across "averaging 54 minutes. The plan assumes 20." Hold on it.

Scattered

Scene 2 · 0:07 to 0:19

“The warning is in Slack. The options were argued in a meeting. The decision went into a spreadsheet. What happened next is in the warehouse. Nothing connects them.”

Picture and motion

The camera pulls back. The Slack card settles among nine other cards: a meeting transcript, the forecast sheet, Snowflake, Jira, Notion, email, Zendesk, SAP and GitHub. Each lights as the voiceover names it, then they drift apart. No lines join them.

The decision

Scene 3 · 0:19 to 0:27

“So the decision gets made anyway. Three months later, it misses.”

Picture and motion

The cards cut away. "We hold the forecast." stamps in. The date types underneath. A beat, then minus 28% counts down from zero in red.

Scene 4 key frame

The swarm

Scene 4 · 0:27 to 0:38

“Now add thousands of AI agents. Each one starts from scratch, makes decisions at machine speed, and has no idea what your company already learned.”

Picture and motion

The frame fills with points of light, people and agents. The counter climbs from 500 to 7,500. Individual agent labels flicker on and off. None of the points connect.

New, replaces the old swarm

Scene 5 key frame

Every era got its database

Scene 5 · 0:38 to 0:51

“Every era of software got its database. Rows for transactions. Documents for apps. Vectors for search. But nothing was built to store a decision.”

Picture and motion

Hard cut to light. Rows, Documents, Vectors and Graphs build left to right, one per beat. The fifth slot, a dashed outline with a question mark, pulses on "a decision".

New

Scene 6 key frame

White Tree

Scene 6 · 0:51 to 0:58

“Until now. White Tree is a database for decisions, made by people and AI.”

Picture and motion

The question mark drops out of the fifth slot. Cut to dark. The White Tree emblem draws in, roots first, then the wordmark rises and the line beneath types in.

New

Scene 7 key frame

TRACER

Scene 7 · 0:58 to 1:18

“Every decision becomes one record. The target. The research. The alternatives. The commitment. The effect. And the revision: what changes next time. Together, they spell TRACER.”

Picture and motion

Light. Each letter rises as the voiceover names it, with the real Atlas line fading in beneath. On "TRACER" the spaced word appears above, and a bronze line loops from Revision back to Target.

New, matches the site

Scene 8 key frame

Dúnedain

Scene 8 · 1:18 to 1:30

“Its harness, Dúnedain, connects to the tools where work already happens, and captures each decision as it is made. Nobody fills in a form.”

Picture and motion

Dark. Lines draw from each tool into Dúnedain one by one, with pulses running along them. Then the line from Dúnedain to White Tree lights and pulses flow into the database.

Rebuilt from the live demo

Scene 9 key frame

The answer

Scene 9 · 1:30 to 1:46

“So before the next decision, people and agents ask first. And White Tree answers with what happened every time before.”

Picture and motion

The pattern card: twelve squares fill one by one and eight turn red, then the sentence appears. The agent panel types its question about Cairn, and the warning and suggestion appear line by line.

Scene 10 key frame

Trust

Scene 10 · 1:46 to 1:55

“It runs on your own servers. Every answer is sourced. Every read is checked, and receipted.”

Picture and motion

Light. Three statements stack in, one per beat, each with its line of proof beside it.

New

Scene 11 key frame

The thesis

Scene 11 · 1:55 to 2:05

“Soon, every company will run on the same AI models. The difference will be what each one learns from its own decisions.”

Picture and motion

The glowing White Tree image fills the frame with a slow push in. The headline words rise, then the second line fades up.

End card

Scene 12 · 2:05 to 2:12

“White Tree. Make the right decision, every time.”

Picture and motion

Emblem, wordmark, line, whitetree.dev. Hold for four seconds as the music resolves.
