SHOTDAY · UPGRADE

From first draft to final cut.

ShotDay Free writes your script and runs your shoot day — a real screenwriting desk and the live sheet your crew already loves. ShotDay Pro runs your whole production: one script across every shoot day, post-production boards, and dailies review, in the same live workspace.

Free writes the script and runs the day. Pro runs the whole production.

SCENE 01 · FREE · THE WRITING DESK

Write it here.
For free.

A real screenwriting desk, not a text box. Tab cycles the element, Enter knows what comes next, scenes build themselves as you type. Write together with live cursors, leave notes in the margin, and every Shot line becomes a storyboard card on its own. Fountain and plain-text export are free too — your words are never locked in.

SCENE 02 · ON SET

The day,
live.

One sheet, every phone. The itinerary updates in real time — when the schedule slips fifteen minutes, your whole crew knows before anyone has to shout it. Your script rides along: today's scenes on the day sheet, edited on set straight into the master. This is ShotDay Free, and it stays free forever.

SCENE 03 · PRO · PROJECTS

One script.
Every shoot day.

Pro adds Projects: one master script and storyboard for the whole film, and each shoot day picks the scenes it covers. Edit a line on set and the master changes; the day wraps and its script freezes as shot. The producer sees every change, by name, in one log.

A post-production board built for film: every clip travels edit → sound → color → delivery, and everyone sees exactly where the cut stands.

Dailies,

Directors approve takes and pin change notes right on the footage — no email chains, no “which version?” The decision lives where the frame lives.

SCENE 09 · Q&A

Before you roll.

Is the writing desk really free?
Yes. The full screenplay editor, unlimited scripts, live co-writing, comments, the timeline, the storyboard, and Fountain or plain-text export — all free, no card. Pro adds the formatted screenplay PDF and Final Draft export, and Projects.
What happens to a shoot's script if the writer deletes it?
Nothing you shot is lost. Every shoot day keeps its last copy of the script, and a producer can add that copy to their own scripts with one click. A day that has wrapped keeps its script exactly as shot.
Does my crew have to pay too?
No. Pro is for the person running the production. Everyone you invite — directors, crew, clients — joins your shoots and projects completely free, forever.
What happens to my projects if I cancel?
Nothing disappears. Your shoot days stay fully yours on the Free plan; Pro projects become read-only until you re-subscribe, so your work is always safe.
What's the difference between Pro and Pro ∞?
The same features — the difference is how you pay. Pro is a subscription. Pro ∞ is one payment, once, for lifetime access to everything ShotDay ever becomes, plus the founding-member ✦ badge.
I'm in the beta — do I already have Pro?
Yes! Every closed-beta account has full Pro access, free, while the beta runs. When paid plans launch you'll get plenty of notice — and beta members get a thank-you deal.
Can I switch plans or cancel anytime?
Anytime, from your account settings — upgrades apply instantly, downgrades at the end of your billing period. No lock-in, no phone calls, no drama.

Action.

Ready when you are, director. Your crew is already in the app.
