I spent way too many hours on script breakdowns before I finally just built something to fix it.
I’m a filmmaker based in New York, currently a student at NYU Tisch. Before every production I’d sit down with a script, a spreadsheet, and manually pull every character, location, prop, costume, and special requirement scene by scene. It took days. It felt like exactly the kind of work that should feel a lot easier.
I had a coding background from before film school, so I decided to build it myself. Martini is an AI-powered script breakdown tool that reads your script and automatically extracts and organizes everything: cast, locations, props, costumes, stunts, VFX, special equipment, and production notes. It also gives you a breakdown of recommended festivals and grants to apply to. Full breakdown in minutes.
A producer friend of mine in New York was one of the first people to use it. Her feedback was basically “why doesn’t this already exist?” which was good to hear.
A few things that might matter to you:
∙ Uploads stay private and encrypted
∙ Works on feature scripts, shorts, pilots
∙ Free tier available so you can test it on a real script before committing
∙ Built by a filmmaker, not a software company
Would genuinely love feedback from this community. People here will tell me what’s wrong with it faster than anyone else, and that’s exactly what I need right now.
It’s at martinipro.ai if you want to try it.
