Scrite is an open-source, intuitive, and offline-first screenwriting software built for writers who value structure, speed, and simplicity.
Designed in close collaboration with professional screenwriters, filmmakers, and writing educators, Scrite brings together traditional script formatting with innovative tools for visualizing narrative structure using existing or custom templates. From screenplay writing to scene management, from index cards to capturing research notes, Scrite offers everything you need in one clean and distraction-free interface.
With a strong focus on the Indian screenwriting landscape—but useful to writers everywhere—Scrite makes it easy to write in English and 11 Indian languages, manage acts and beats, track characters, and navigate long-form stories with clarity. Writers can jump between their screenplay, structure view, and notes with just a click, allowing for both creative flow and analytical thinking.
Built as a desktop app that works offline, Scrite ensures that your work is always accessible, safe, and private. Your screenplays stay on your device, Scrite does not access or store your content on cloud servers, giving you full creative control.
Our mission is to democratize storytelling tools by making professional-grade screenwriting software affordable and accessible. Since its launch in 2020, Scrite has been adopted by thousands of writers, film students, and studios across India and beyond. Scrite offers a 30-day free trial post which writers and teams can opt for affordable quarterly or annual subscription plans.
Whether you're working on a film, a web series, Scrite adapts to your process, not the other way around.
