Story-aware screenwriting
Most screenplays never reach THE END. Nabu turns your idea into a story structure you can see, so the path to the end stays clear. From the first sentence to the last page.

EXT. THE BREAKWATER – MORNING
The ferry comes in with the tide. MARA waits at the end of the stones, hands open, nothing left to carry. VERA is already there, the ledger under her arm.
MARA
Square?
VERA
(closing the ledger)
Square. All of it.
The horn sounds across the water. Long, then short, then gone. Mara steps down to meet the boat.
FADE OUT.
THE END
Nabu is story-aware. It sees past the page you are on: what each character knows, the promises the script has made, what every scene is carrying, and what the genre owes its audience. The setup on page 10 is still in play on page 90.
The long middle
Anyone can start a screenplay. The stall comes when the outline runs out and you can’t see what the story still needs. Nabu is built for that moment. It knows where you are, what every scene is carrying, and which scene is hiding from you.
The heat map weighs every scene: what it sets up, what it pays off, what it costs. A scene carrying nothing shows up cold.
The guided path
A sentence is enough. A character, a world, a half-formed premise. Or bring what you already have: a treatment, a short, a draft that stalled. Nabu walks it through the decisions behind the screenplay (premise, genre, characters, conflict, structure), then lays the whole story out scene by scene where you can see it. You always know what to write next.
The coverage
Run coverage before the script leaves your hands. Structure, pacing, continuity, character voice. Every note arrives with a scene number, pointing at the page it came from, so the next pass has a plan.
The notes come signed by Nisaba. She reads the whole draft, and answers anything you ask about the story with a scene number.

EXT. THE BREAKWATER – DUSK
Mara walks the stones two at a time. The ferry horn sounds behind her. Long, then short, then nothing.
MARA
You knew the whole time. The ledger, the locker, all of it.
ELIAS
I knew the parts that mattered. The rest I was hoping you’d never need.
She stops. The water is the color of slate. Somewhere out past the buoys, the last light lets go of the day.
MARA
Say it plainly. For once.
Formatting was solved in 1991. Nabu works on the part that still kills scripts.
