One application

Replace five separate tools with one.

Notes, story outline, screenplay, breakdown and call sheets normally need separate programs. Straft keeps them in one project.

Privacy

Your project stays on your computer.

Scripts, notes and schedules are private work. Straft stores them as files on your own drive and does not need a server.

  • Local project folder. Your project is a folder on your computer, or on an external drive you choose.
  • Fully offline. Writing, planning and exporting need no sign-in and no internet connection.
  • Nothing leaves unless you send it. Share scripts and call sheets as files.
  • No lock-in. Export, back up and move the whole project at any time.

Optional

AI assistance and themes, when you want them.

Both are optional and stay out of the way until you use them.

Straft AI

An assistant that works only on your own project.

Ask questions in plain language and get answers from your project, with the sources shown. Nothing changes until you choose Apply. The assistant runs on your computer after a one-time download that you start yourself, and Straft works fully without it.

Who it is for

What you can rely on.

01

Your work is never changed silently

Straft suggests and you decide. Nothing rewrites your story, script or schedule on its own.

02

Nothing is lost by accident

Deleted items stay in Recently Deleted, undo is offered after changes, and your work saves as you go.

03

You can leave at any time

Every document exports, so you can back up, move and keep your project.

Import

Bring your existing scripts.

Import Final Draft, Fountain, PDF, DOCX and plain text files. Straft shows what will be imported, with every warning, before anything is applied.
