DraftRadar

DraftRadar is a web app (with optional desktop companion) that runs a “producer-style” pass on your screenplay and highlights practical red flags: budget drivers, location sprawl, cast bloat, VFX intensity, period costs, stunts, and scheduling complexity. Upload a PDF or Fountain/Final Draft export, then get a scene-by-scene breakdown with a simple cost/complexity score and specific rewrite suggestions (e.g., consolidate locations, merge minor roles, reduce night exteriors). It also generates a one-page production-friendly summary: estimated speaking roles, unique locations, day/night split, INT/EXT ratio, and high-risk elements. This is not a magic ‘make it good’ AI—it's a pragmatic tool that helps writers make drafts more producible and easier to pitch. Export reports to PDF for managers, producers, and grant submissions.
