Screenplay Editor & Auto-Formatting

Write in proper screenplay format from your very first keystroke. ScriptFlo's editor knows the industry standard — scene headings, action lines, character names, dialogue, parentheticals, transitions, and shots — and applies formatting automatically as you type. No more manually centering character names or tabbing to the right margin.

  • Auto-detects element type as you write (INT./EXT. triggers scene heading automatically)
  • Tab and Enter cycle intelligently through element types — the way professional writers expect
  • Proper margins and spacing locked to WGA/industry standard
  • Smart capitalization for scene headings and character names
  • Parenthetical insertion with one keystroke
  • Inline slug line suggestions from your existing scene headings
  • Full undo/redo history — never lose a line of dialogue
  • Distraction-free full-screen writing mode

9+ Story Structure Templates

Great screenplays aren't born — they're built. ScriptFlo includes nine proven story structure frameworks, each pre-loaded with beat descriptions, typical page ranges, and guidance on what each beat needs to accomplish. Choose your framework before you start, or apply one to a draft already in progress.

  • Three-Act Structure — the foundational model for feature films
  • Hero's Journey (Campbell) — 12 stages for mythic narratives
  • Save the Cat! (Blake Snyder) — 15-beat sheet with page targets
  • Story Circle (Dan Harmon) — 8-point circular narrative model
  • Freytag's Pyramid — classical dramatic structure for character arcs
  • Sequence Method — 8 sequences for tight dramatic construction
  • TV Drama Half-Hour — optimized for 22-minute episodes
  • TV Drama One-Hour — four-act structure for broadcast and streaming
  • Limited Series Arc — multi-episode story spine for prestige TV
  • Custom templates: create and save your own story structure

AI Assistant

AI Writing Assistant

ScriptFlo's AI reads your entire script — not just the last paragraph — and acts as a creative collaborator who knows your characters, your world, and your tone. It won't write your screenplay. It will help you write a better one. Supports Claude (Anthropic), GPT-4 (OpenAI), and any OpenRouter-compatible model.

  • "I'm Stuck" — generates 3–5 creative directions rooted in your established story threads
  • "Coach This Scene" — specific, actionable feedback with praise-before-polish structure
  • "Character Voice Check" — analyzes dialogue consistency and flags out-of-character lines
  • "Continue Writing" — drafts the next few elements in your established voice
  • "What If..." — explores alternate story paths without altering your draft
  • "Punch Up Dialogue" — tightens exchanges while preserving each character's voice
  • Full script context: AI reads your entire screenplay, not just the current scene
  • Bring your own API key: works with Claude, OpenAI, and OpenRouter

Visual Tools

Canvas, Storyboard & Timeline

Not every writer thinks in linear prose. ScriptFlo's visual tools give you three different ways to see your story: a free-form canvas for spatial thinking, a storyboard grid for visual planning, and a timeline that maps your scenes against your chosen story structure. Switch between views at any time without losing your work.

  • Canvas view: free-form drag-and-drop scene cards with color coding
  • Corkboard: classic index cards with notes, tags, and custom colors
  • Storyboard: visual scene grid for shot-level planning
  • Timeline: scenes laid over your story structure beats
  • Beat sheets: plan your story's emotional turning points before writing
  • Sequence view: group scenes into narrative sequences
  • Two-way sync: reorder scenes visually and the editor updates automatically
  • Zoom controls and mini-map for large, complex scripts
