DraftLight is a cloud screenwriting studio that carries your script from a blank page through breakdown, scheduling, budgeting, and a distributable call sheet — without switching tools.
No credit card required for Free.
INT. WRITERS' ROOM — NIGHT
A single monitor glows in an otherwise dark room. MAYA (30s, three coffees deep) stares down a blinking cursor like it owes her money.
MAYA
(to the room)
Nobody move. I think I finally fixed the second act.
She hits Save. Somewhere, a collaborator's cursor blinks awake in the same sentence.
Scene headings, action, character cues, and dialogue auto-format as you type — Tab and Enter move exactly like a real screenplay, not a generic word processor.
Screenplay, Stageplay, Teleplay, Audio Drama, and a two-column A/V script editor — pick a format when you start, the editor adapts its whole keymap to match.
Notes stick to the exact word they're about, survive edits, and @mention a collaborator straight into their notification feed.
Lock a draft into colored revision pages — White, Blue, Pink, Yellow, Green, Goldenrod, Buff, Salmon, Cherry — with scene numbers that stay locked across every future pass.
Tag cast, props, wardrobe, vehicles, and stunts scene-by-scene. Every tag rolls up into a project-wide catalog automatically — no separate spreadsheet.
Drag scenes onto a stripboard, split into multiple shooting units, and generate a distributable call sheet in one click.
Save an address and get a real pinned map, plus room for photos and 360° panoramas — everything a location scout needs in one card.
Line items map to the same categories you already tagged in Breakdown, with tax and fringe rates calculated automatically.
Every plan gets the full writing and pre-production toolkit. Paid plans just raise the ceiling.
