Start Your Screenplay Your Way: Script, Outline, or Idea FinalBit 3.16.0

🎬 What's New in FinalBit

FinalBit's new project screen — start a screenplay by uploading a script, using source material, or a blank editor.

Start any project — your way

Every story starts differently. So we rebuilt "Start new project" around how you actually work. Now, when you create a project, you choose how FinalBit sets up your workspace:

📄 Upload a Full script

Already have a draft? Import a PDF, Final Draft, Fountain, or DOCX and pick up from a fully editable script in seconds — no reformatting, no copy-paste.

✨ Start from any source material

Got a pitch deck, outline, or treatment — or just an idea in your head? Attach it (or simply describe it), and FinalBit reads your material, identifies the story, and builds a structured outline for you. Review it act-by-act, regenerate anything you don't love, and turn it into a full multi-act script (up to ~36 scenes) — ready to break down, schedule, and storyboard.

✍️ Start from a blank editor

Prefer to write the traditional way? Jump straight into our industry-standard screenplay editor and start from page one — the classic experience, exactly where you left it.

You're always in control: FinalBit shows you the outline before it creates anything, so nothing happens until you say "Looks good."

Smaller updates

Upgraded to Claude 4.8 — Orson now runs on the latest Claude 4.8, for sharper outlines, stronger scene generation, and better suggestions across the board.
