AI script coverage a producer would recognise
AI script coverage that returns the document a development executive actually reads: logline, synopsis, a verdict, a rating, per-scene recommendations and a marketability read. The sample this page is built from ran on a real 121-page feature and came back as a seven-page report.
Coverage is what a buyer's reader writes about your script. If you want the version written to you, with a revision plan and quick wins, that is Script Feedback — a genuinely different document for a different moment.
Before you upload anything
Nothing changes until you Merge
Every edit opens an A/B compare — nothing changes your scene until you Merge.
Your script is never used to train AI
Zero Data Retention on every model — your script is never used to train AI. Zero Data Retention means the model providers we send your pages to are contractually barred from storing them: your script is processed to produce your result and then it is gone from their side. Read the policy.
You stay the author
These tools read your script and tell you what they found. Where they suggest a change, it arrives as a proposal beside your original, never in place of it.
Your work stays yours, and you can delete it
Your projects stay in your account for as long as you use it. An account left completely inactive for 2 years is notified before anything is removed, and you can delete a project or your whole account at any time. Full terms in the privacy policy.
What “A/B compare” means in practice
- Character Voice
- “Rewrites only this character's dialogue — action and other characters stay untouched.”
- Alternate Takes
- “Two contrasting rewrites of this scene, compared side-by-side — pick one, or blend the best of both.”
Both quoted from the editor itself. Every suggestion lands next to your original with a Merge button; declining it leaves the scene exactly as you wrote it.
What it catches
- A verdict in the industry's own vocabulary: PASS, CONSIDER or RECOMMEND, with a separate writer verdict beside it.
- A rating out of 10 for the recommendation, and an overall score out of 100 across eight categories.
- Per-scene recommendations in a table — issue, scene number, scene heading, and what to do about it.
- Structure summarised act by act, by scene range, with pacing notes attached.
- A dialogue read broken down character by character, each with notes and suggestions.
- A revision plan with an estimated revision time and priority-ordered actions.
- Comparable films, a target audience and a commercial potential read.
- A budget range and a production-readiness score — a grade on the shoot, not just the story.

The seventeen sections you get
Details and draft date; logline; a multi-paragraph synopsis covering the full plot; the recommendation block; scene recommendations; genre, format, page count, budget range and target audience; theme and its analysis; the eight-category scoring; the dialogue read with its by-character table; structure by act; the revision plan; marketability with comparable films; a dialogue-rewrites table giving scene, reason, original line, character and suggested line; strengths with scene references; the character table; weaknesses with scene references; and overall notes.
It is deliberately the shape of a coverage document rather than a chat response, because the person you forward it to already knows how to read one.
Two things international coverage tools do not do
In the sample run, the comparable films came back regional — Telugu and Tamil titles rather than Hollywood ones. A US-trained coverage tool comps a Tollywood thriller to something a Hyderabad producer has no use for. We are still confirming how consistently that holds across scripts, so treat it as observed in a real run rather than a guarantee.
And the report carries a budget range and a production-readiness score. Coverage services grade the story; this also grades the shoot, which is what makes the same upload useful to the pre-production tools further down the lifecycle.
Exports
Reports export to PDF, Word and Excel. Revised pages export to FDX and Fountain, so the script goes back into whatever you write in.
What script coverage does not do
- It does not sell your script, and it does not put it in front of anyone. There are no relationships attached to this report.
- It does not replace a reader with taste in your genre. It replaces the wait and the fee for the mechanical layer of the read.
- The verdict is not a market prediction. CONSIDER means the report's own assessment against its rubric, not a forecast of what a buyer will do.
- It will not rewrite the script for you. The dialogue-rewrites table proposes lines; applying any of them is a separate, explicit action in the editor.

Frequently asked questions
How much does script coverage cost?
450 credits for a Standard report, 300 for Fast and 800 for Premium. Signup includes 2,500 credits with no card, which covers several reads. A traditional coverage service charges $75–$250 per script with a one-to-three-week turnaround.
What does PASS, CONSIDER or RECOMMEND mean?
They are the standard verdicts a studio or production company reader assigns. PASS means not for us, CONSIDER means there is something here worth a second look, RECOMMEND means push it upward. The report gives a verdict for the script and a separate one for the writer, which is also how the industry does it.
Is AI script coverage any good?
On the checkable layer — structure, pacing, dialogue distribution, per-scene issues, production readiness — it is genuinely useful and much faster. On taste and market judgement a good human reader is better. The honest use is to fix what this finds before you pay for their time.
Will my script be used to train AI?
No. Zero Data Retention is enabled on every model used, and your material is never used to train, fine-tune or improve any foundation model. See section 3.1 of the privacy policy.
Can I get coverage in a language other than English?
Yes. The report is generated in the language the script is written in, across 17 supported languages. The sample this page quotes came back entirely in Telugu.
How long is the report?
The sample ran to seven pages on a 121-page feature, across seventeen sections. Length scales with the draft.
