The first text to video software that respects writers
You can't prompt, or you won't. But you can write. So write the way you always have: a page, correct margins, your own words, no prompt box in sight. When the scene is right, AfterDraft compiles what you already wrote into shots you can watch. Story first. Everything else after the draft, never instead of it.
Private beta, opening in small batches. One email when it is your turn, and nothing else.
What you wrote
How AfterDraft reads the scene
Danny is lying, and Maya knows it. The empty lot is the proof, so it needs to register on screen. Keep Danny evasive and Maya restrained. Cover the moment in four clean beats: Maya entering, Danny's hands around the cold coffee, the exchange between them, then the lot and her last word.
AfterDraft would cover it in 4 shots
You can't prompt. Or you won't.
But you can write.
Everything happens
after the draft.
01 · You
Write the scene
Standard screenplay format, Final Draft keys, Fountain underneath. Characters, scenes and beats are detected as you type.
Beat 1 · 6s
A half-empty diner off the interstate. Neon buzzes.
Beat 2 · 4s
MAYA
You said midnight. It's two.
02 · AfterDraft
It compiles
The scene splits into beats. Each one carries its location, cast, wardrobe, duration and look, all pulled from what you already wrote.
03 · Your model
Clips come back
Generated footage attaches to the beat it came from, script text alongside. The story stays the spine; the clips hang off it.
Consistency
Do what you have always done. Write Maya well, give her a good line of description the first time she walks in, and keep writing. AfterDraft reads your character cues and builds her file in the background, so every scene she appears in already knows who she is.
AI video models have no memory. Every clip they make starts from zero, with a new face and a new room, which is why generated footage rarely cuts together. Your screenplay does remember. AfterDraft simply hands over what the script already knew.
Nothing here writes your characters or touches your dialogue. This is the production work that sits after the draft, waiting for the day you, or a producer, or a director needs to see it.
MAYA
9 scenes · 41 cues
Thirties, road-worn. Denim jacket over a work shirt, sleeves pushed up. Hair tied back.
DANNY
6 scenes · 22 cues
Forties, heavy build. Windbreaker he never takes off. Nervous hands.
Generate in-app with your own keys, or export the compiled prompts as JSON and formatted text and take them anywhere. When the next model wins, your script is already the source of truth, so there is nothing to redo.
For writers
Correct margins, correct indents, Courier Prime, the Final Draft keys your hands already know. Tab cycles elements, Enter follows the flow, INT. converts itself. Nothing on the page mentions AI, because nothing on the page should.
If you have avoided these tools because they want you to describe your film to a text box, this is the other way round. You imagine, you write, you stay in the draft as long as it takes. Seeing it is something you do afterwards, with your own words, on your own schedule.
Writers and filmmakers are being let in a few at a time. Tell us where to reach you and what you are working on, and we will send a key when there is room.
Writing, compiling and exporting will be free. Model keys are yours to bring, or not.
