Online Screenplay Editor: 8 Block Types, Auto Formatting, PDF Export | Narracore

Narracore is a professional screenwriting and narrative-analysis workbench. Open the full structured screenplay editor in your browser without signing up; register to save projects to the cloud, browse them page by page, keep version history, and run AI screenplay analysis (single-scene and multi-scene filmability, with evidence-anchored reports). A separate MCP formatting service, narracore.app, formats screenplays and exports PDFs from AI clients such as Claude or ChatGPT, using the same layout engine as this site.

What you can do now

• Free guest trial: open the full structured screenplay editor in your browser, no account required; drafts stay on your device until you sign up and migrate them.
• Eight screenplay block types with keyboard shortcuts, IME-safe input, undo/redo, autosave and conflict handling.
• Real script typography and manuscript-paper layout, with print preview and PDF export.
• Project version history with append-only restore points (account required).
• Characters, locations and props as entities, with a fact ledger, sources, candidate adjudication and stable in-text references (account required).
• Relationship, knowledge and scene-scope tracking, plus a read-only canon view of the whole work (account required).
• Screenplay statistics: word counts, dialogue ratio, scene counts, action density and character appearances, with evidence jump-back and stale recompute (account required).
• Visualization: the whole work on one scene axis with three thin rails (words, dialogue share, action density); click any scene to jump back to the text (account required).
• Emotion band and manual calibration: launch emotion analysis and the scene axis shows audience emotion direction and intensity, every reading anchored to the text; per-scene readings can be calibrated, and your judgment takes precedence over re-analysis (account required, uses credits).
• AI narrative analysis: single-scene and multi-scene filmability analysis in a professional report layout (verdict, highlights, findings, per-scene scores), each finding anchored to the text (account required, uses credits).
• Creative intent & consistency: write project- and scene-level creative intent that feeds analysis judgment, rule on findings (update canon / hold / not-a-canon-change, no repeats), answer one-click calibration questions, and run consistency checks that list affected scenes with before/after evidence after a canon change (account required, uses credits).
• Story synopsis and outline: capture the logline, genre, tone and creation status on one page; build the skeleton in phases and plot points with a one-click four-phase template, mirrored on the project home (account required).
• Worldview browsing: every setting entry grouped by characters, locations, props and custom types, with facts, sources, scopes and a relative-location sketch in the detail view (account required).
• Research library: collect references and inspirations separately with paste-to-save, source and verification status, multi-tag cross-filtering, and natural-language search in your own words (account required; searching uses credits).
• Distill research into settings: turn a library entry into candidate canon points with one click — everything goes through the confirm-first inbox and only writes when you accept it, with a manual fallback (account required; AI distillation uses credits).
• Work language: each project can be set to Chinese, English or Japanese; scene-heading format, convention suggestions and AI output language follow the work language, while the interface language only affects the interface (account required).
• Account settings page: email and verification status, signed-in device management (revoke one or all others), change password while signed in, change login email (both mailboxes notified), credit balance and ledger, export or deletion (account required).
• AI suggestion diff and whole-work verdict: see original text, suggested version and reason side by side for reported findings; accepting writes a new manuscript version (edit-before-accept supported); multi-scene analyses include an AI cross-scene verdict (account required, uses credits).
• Chapter & scene details and chronicle: formal read-only pages with a scene tree, scene cards and a narrative-order timeline derived from your manuscript; the worldview relations panel shows entity relation projections (account required).
• Smart paste import for existing scripts, recognizing common Chinese, Japanese and English screenplay formats.
• A public trilingual privacy policy: where data lives, how long it is kept, your rights, and an explicit promise that your writing is never used to train models.

Frequently asked questions

Is Narracore free? Do I need an account?

The core editor is free and needs no account: open your browser and write, drafts stay on your device. Signing up (invite-only beta) unlocks cloud saving, version history, script statistics and AI filmability analysis; guest drafts migrate in one click.

How do I format AI-written text into a proper screenplay?

Two ways: smart-paste import into the editor at narracore.cn (recognizes common Chinese, Japanese and English screenplay formats and converts them into eight screenplay blocks), or hand the text to an AI client such as Claude / ChatGPT, which calls the narracore.app MCP formatting service to output a print-ready PDF directly.

Is my writing used to train AI models?

No. Narracore never uses your creative content to train models, and never shows it to other users; analysis calls go to our model provider in mainland China (Alibaba Cloud Bailian), which officially promises never to use your data for model training. The data is yours: export your work anytime, and closing your account deletes everything (see the privacy policy).

What is the difference between Narracore and narracore.app?

narracore.cn is the browser-based screenwriting and narrative-analysis workbench (editor, settings management, statistics, AI analysis); narracore.app is a separate MCP formatting service that AI clients such as Claude / ChatGPT call to format rough text into standard screenplay form and export PDFs. Both share the same layout engine.
