Every Cherry feature reads your actual pages — not template text, not your prompt, the screenplay itself. They’re craft help, not text analysis.
Three ways Cherry reads your script, so you don't have to be the only one who has.
Three pre-submission reads — industry reader (coverage-style), director (visual and production), lead actor (arc playability) — on your current draft. Before Cherry: $300 and a week. Now: minutes, as many passes as you need.
A full-screenplay analysis run at our deepest setting — asynchronous, ~1 hour, delivered by email with the depth of coverage an industry reader would charge hundreds for.
Your whole screenplay as a heatmap. Spot act breaks. Find the saggy middle. See where you're cooking with gas — and where you're idling. A two-hour read compressed to a glance.
Your cast, tracked and understood. Cherry learns who they are and flags when they start sounding like you typing.
Write a profile once. Every tool in Cherry uses it — voice analysis, dialogue polish, reader simulator, structure notes. The script gets smarter as the profiles deepen.
Cherry learns each character's voice from what they actually say — vocabulary, rhythm, fragment tendencies, question frequency. Then it flags lines where they sound out of character.
Describe a situation, get three next-action options grounded in what you've established about this character — not generic story logic. The tool for when you're stuck and need to remember who they are.
Inline tools that ask the question a trusted collaborator would. Never auto-applied, always suggested.
Target a specific pass — tighten, add subtext, sharpen the conflict, make it funnier. Returns options you can pick from, not a prescription.
Highlights lines that tell instead of show. Returns three oblique alternatives that preserve your voice while tightening the edit.
Type the scene in plain prose — 'Sarah walks into the diner. It's raining. Derek is already at a booth' — and Cherry converts it to industry-standard Fountain screenplay format in real time.
Zoom out. See the shape of what you've built.
One-sentence and one-paragraph pitches, generated from your actual script — not from your summary of it.
Overlay Save the Cat, Story Circle, or Hero's Journey on your script and see where your beats land.
Catches 'wait, how did she know that?' before your reader does. Tracks who knows what, where props are, how much time has passed.
Scene-by-scene props, wardrobe, locations, and continuity lists — the document a producer or 1st AD actually needs.
When the page is blank. A precisely-tuned collaborator that knows your character and can suggest what should happen next without writing it for you.
Ask about Fountain syntax, how a tool works, or a question about craft. Always one tap away. Warm, concise, never in the way.
