About

Script Analysis

Features
Read full description

Script Analysis gives writers the same kind of coverage studio readers give executives β€” before you've written a single page, and again once the draft is done. Drop in a logline for an AI-powered idea analysis: a score, strengths, concerns, and comparable titles, in about a minute. When a script is ready, run a full premium coverage pass and a synopsis snapshot you can send to reps or producers. Track your momentum. Every idea check and every script lives on your dashboard. A public leaderboard ranks scripts by their AI-derived score, so you can see how your best work stacks up. Find the right reader. Browse the marketplace to see what producers are looking for, or list your own script. Message directly, negotiate an offer, and close the deal through secure escrow β€” the platform only takes its fee once a writer is paid. Built for the actual work of getting made, not just another word processor. Script Analysis is for writers who want a fast, honest gut-check and a real path to the people who option scripts. Subscriptions unlock deeper analysis and more monthly credits, from a light Lite tier up to Premium for unlimited coverage.

About

The Script Tool

The Script Tool app is for writers who already use The Script Tool. Sign in with the same email and password you use on the website. There is no sign-up in the app. Your whole library, in your pocket: β€’ Read and edit your screenplays in proper screenplay format β€” scene headings, action, character, dialogue, parentheticals and transitions. β€’ Checks: spelling, punctuation, format and character-name consistency, flagged right in the script. β€’ Reports: pages, scenes, speaking parts, dialogue share, and breakdowns by character and location. β€’ Collaboration: see notes from the people you've invited, and share a read-only link you can revoke at any time. β€’ Home-screen widget: the status of your latest review and the size of your library, at a glance. β€’ Face ID and Touch ID: the app locks itself whenever you leave it, so an unpublished script is never left open. β€’ Notifications: when a review finishes, a collaborator leaves a note, or accepts an invitation β€” each one switchable. Import Final Draft (.fdx) and Fountain files and download them back any time; your original file is kept byte for byte. Optional AI features run on your own Anthropic API key. Everything else works without one.
