Screenwriter: from the first scene to the shooting breakdown
A screenplay isn't just text: scenes, characters, shots, props and versions. Screenwriter itself understands where a scene heading, action, character and dialogue are, and formats the page to the standard. Next to it — a storyboard, scene and character cards, a production breakdown and version history with rollback.
For screenwriters, production and content teams, advertising agencies and studios.

Work tools
What you can do
01
A standard-format editor
Enter and Tab fill in the next element, and selection works across lines, as in a regular editor. The tags [SCENE], [CHARACTER], [DIALOGUE] give pasted text the right formatting at once.
02
Structure, scenes and characters
The act and scene structure follows the cursor. A scene has a goal, conflict, stage and shot type; a character has an arc and statistics; main characters can be ranked, and duplicate names merged.
03
Storyboard and breakdown
Shots for scene lines with camera techniques and animated diagrams. The breakdown finds locations, lighting, props, shots and camera on its own; manual items add to it without duplicates.
04
Sharing by link
A link opens only the selected parts, with a password, expiry and number of opens. Protected view renders pages as images, hides the text when you leave the window and adds a watermark with the link number.
Practical scenario
Example: prepare a screenplay to show a producer
1
Paste the text
Paste a draft with tags or import .fountain — scenes, characters and dialogue format themselves.
2
Fill in the cards
Mark the goal and shot type of scenes, the main characters and the breakdown — so the producer sees more than just text.
3
Send the link
Choose what to show and set an expiry and password. You can copy the active link again at any time.
Requirements and compatibility
Only the author and the co-authors they invite can see the project. A browser can't block screenshots — protected view makes copying harder and shows which link the text leaked through. Export: PDF, Fountain, Final Draft, TXT and .bosscript.
