EpicDraft — The Storytelling Engine.
Cover page to coverage.See you at goldenrod.
One app for the whole life of your screenplay: outline, draft, collaborate, get read. Formatting that never makes you fight the margins. Files that stay yours. Free to write, export, and print.
Free to download & use on every platform. No watermarks, no data mining, no quotas. Just you and the page.
Available on all major platforms.
Local-first by design
Your scripts live on your device, not our cloud. Sync is yours to switch on and off, and Fountain, Final Draft & PDF export mean nothing locks you in.
No watermarks, even on Free
Print and export clean, industry-standard PDFs from day one. Your name goes on the title page, not our logo.
No data mining, ever
Your writing is your business. We never mine it, sell it, or use it to train AI models. Even Pro AI runs locally on your own hardware, by default.
No quotas, no trial clock
Free isn't a demo, and there's no meter running. Write unlimited scripts and unlimited pages, and export as often as you like. Forever. Paid Pro plans keep the lights on, not your data.
02 — Features
Write the whole story, not just the pages.
Every feature here is built around your story, whether you write alone or with a whole room. Fast where you need speed, invisible everywhere else, and never a paywall between you and the page.
Flow at the Speed of Thought
Smart autocompletes and shortcuts keep your fingers moving and your mind on the scene. Drive the whole editor from your keyboard, or talk it out instead: dictate and your spoken words drop straight into the editor, in your script's language.
The writers room upgrade.
Everything below ships with EpicDraft Pro and runs on your own hardware. Your files still stay yours.
AI That Stays Home
A writing assistant that keeps your secrets. It runs on local models right on your own hardware, downloaded in-app or through Ollama, and keeps working with the internet switched off. Your pages never leave the machine in front of you unless you choose to bring your own key from OpenAI, Anthropic, Google, or xAI, and even then your words go straight from your device to your provider, never through us.
An Assistant, Not Just Autocomplete
Go beyond suggestions. Set your AI agent loose on script research, loglines, character development, and treatment drafts, so you spend your energy on the scenes only you can write. Or point it at the whole project: a coverage report, a consistency check, or an in-place rewrite you review before you accept it.
Story-Aware Suggestions
Turn it on and the assistant reads your whole Story Wiki. Every suggestion already knows your characters, beats, and world.
