Scriptwriter Pro has a universal, sleek, and easy-to-use user interface. It does everything you’d need and want of your screenwriting software, and it does it on all modern browsers (i.e., Google Chrome, Firefox, Safari, etc.) and all modern operating systems (i.e., Microsoft Windows 10/11, macOS Golden Gate, Linux, etc.)

Scriptwriter Pro automatically takes care of the screenplay formatting for you, intelligently switching between scene headings and action, characters and dialogue, transitions and more while you type. If you don’t agree with the element, just tab or shift+tab your way through the styles until you find the right one for the job. It includes all of the formatting styles you need and want:

• Scene headings
• Actions
• Character Names
• Parentheticals
• Dialogue
• Transitions
• & Shots

Along with text stylizing like bold, italic, and underline. You can even add scene numbers, create simultaneous dialogue, prepare your scripts for double-sided printing, easly customize the title page, and so so much more.

Scriptwriter Pro keeps track of your previously used locations and characters to provide accurate and project-specific autocomplete suggestions so you don’t lose time re-typing them out over and over again. The less time it takes for you to put pen to paper, the more time you have to put film to screen.

Scriptwriter Pro organizes all of your scenes in chronological order, from beginning to end, and helps you navigate your scenes without having to scroll for hours through hundreds of pages. You can even see which characters have the most screentime as Scriptwriter Pro tracks how many lines each character is given.

Scriptwriter Pro recognizes that writing is a process; things are added, removed, and changed all the time. To better manage these different rewrites and revisions, Scriptwriter Pro allows you to record revisions, quickly see changes, and export scripts with revised pages highlighted.

There’s literally too much for us to list out here. You’ll just have to explore on your own to find everything!

We’re currently working on releasing Scriptwriter Pro’s source code. Please come back later!

Scriptwriter Pro has several custom open source screenplay fonts for you to choose from, all of which were designed to be metrically-compatible or stylistically similar to other fonts available on your operating system or from other screenwriting software. These fonts include:

• Courier Script (a Courier Screenplay replacement & default font)
• Courain (a Courier Final Draft replacement)
• Courier Prime (from Quote-Unquote Apps)
• Courier Now (a Courier New replacement)

You can download the above mentioned families here. Be sure to read and understand the included licenses before you use these families.

We’re currently working on creating high-quality screenplay templates for you to use. Please come back later!

The custom Scriptwriter Pro save files (.scriptwriterx) is a JSON-based format and is therefore easily integrable with other apps and very human-readable. You can easily open any of these files in the text editor of your choice to read and edit them outside of Scriptwriter Pro.

Scriptwriter Pro is available for the web.

Scriptwriter Pro is accessible on any modern operating systems (like Microsoft Windows 10/11, macOS Golden Gate, or Linux) that run any modern browsers that support modern HTML5, CSS, and JavaScript (like Google Chrome, Firefox, or Safari).

Scriptwriter Pro is a completely free screenwriting platform that works directly in your browser. Other software take up not-insignificant portions of your hard drive's disk space and may have a free trial before you have to pay or a limited free tier, but Scriptwriter Pro is (and always will be) free of charge, no matter who you are. Scriptwriter Pro has all of the same features as the other screenwriting platforms and more.

No.

Yes. When we push an update, all instances of Scriptwriter Pro automatically update upon refreshing the page. Any drafts stored in your browser will remain intact and accessible and all versions are backwardly-compatible with each other, meaning the newest version of Scriptwriter Pro will still support legacy features (but old versions may not support newer features).

If you or your business wish to license a specific version of Scriptwriter Pro, please feel free to get in touch. We’d be happy to help!

The current version is Alpha 3.7

Here are the latest fixes, features, improvements, and tweaks:

• Alpha 3.7 — Fixed editing capabilities.

Yes, definetly. But there are some caveats. You can transfer .scriptwriterx and .fountain files between browsers with no issue. Just download the file and open them in your other browser. However, local drafts (i.e., ones saved to your browser’s storage) will not be transferred between browsers.

Scriptwriter Pro does not currently support collaborative editing, so documents can not be shared and edited live between multiple browsers.

For scripts, it’s recommended to use a screenplay-specific Courier or Courier-like font (namely one that is monospaced). Scriptwriter Pro comes with five fonts for you to choose from:

• Courier Script (a Courier Screenplay replacement & default font)
• Courain (a Courier Final Draft replacement)
• Courier Prime (from Quote-Unquote Apps)
• Courier Now (a Courier New replacement)
• Preshoot Elite (a Prestige Elite replacement)
• Courier New (system font)

The first four fonts (Courier Script through Courier Now) are available for download separately in the Extras section. You cannot currently upload your own fonts.

Partially, yes. Scriptwriter Pro supports the Fountain format. Certain Scriptwriter Pro-specific features like color-page revisions will not be available outside of .scriptwriterx files (the custom file format for Scriptwriter Pro scripts).
