Overview
You got into screenwriting to tell stories, not to fight tab stops and margins. 🧯

Screenplay Editor turns Google Docs™ into a real screenwriting tool. You click a button and the current line snaps into a scene heading, action, character, dialogue, or transition. One more click formats your whole script. It's the screenplay formatter for Google Docs™ that writers ran to after Screenplay Formatter shut down. 🏃

Here's the good stuff:

🎬 Your pages match Hollywood specs exactly, so readers take them seriously.
⚡ One click formats your entire script, or just the part you select.
📄 You export to PDF or Final Draft (.fdx) in one click.
👥 You co-write live with your partner or your writers' room, because it's still Google Docs™.
🔒 Your scripts stay in your Google Drive™, and we never read or store a single line.

Writers use it as a Final Draft alternative, a Celtx replacement, or their first proper screenwriting software, and it speaks Fountain under the hood. It's free to start, so open a Doc, type FADE IN, and go. It works on anything, even that Chromebook in your bag. 🤟

We're screenwriters too, so we built the tool we wished we had. 🍿
