Why MyNiverse
From first idea to release, in one place.
Most productions run on a scheduling app, a screenwriting app, a budget spreadsheet and a shared drive. MyNiverse keeps the script, the schedule, the money and the delivery in one project, so a change in one shows up in the rest.

How it compares
One workspace, or a tool per job
What each kind of tool usually covers. Many of them are very good at their own job; MyNiverse is built to cover all of the jobs in one project.

What is inside
Built for the way a production runs
Screenplay
Write, or import a Final Draft or Fountain script. Revision colors, locked scene numbers, and a push sends the changes on to the breakdown.
Breakdown and strip board
Tag cast, props, wardrobe and locations scene by scene, then drag strips into shooting days. Auto-Stripboard groups scenes by location and cast.
Budget
Top sheet, accounts and line items, templates by scale, fringes, and versions you can compare side by side.
Financing
Track investors, pre-sales and the recoupment waterfall, and estimate tax incentives with the date each rate was recorded.
Production paperwork
Call sheets, sides, the one-liner, day out of days and daily reports, all from the same schedule.
Post and delivery
Editorial cuts, VFX shots, music cues, deliverables and QC reports, through to final delivery.
Distribution and marketing
Festival submissions, distribution deals, marketing assets, revenue and screenings, on the same project.
Your crew, scoped
Per-project roles, so a coordinator sees the schedule and a line producer sees the budget.
AI when you want it
AI that does the tedious part
Every AI action shows its price in credits before you run it: a fixed price, a cap, or a per-scene price for the scenes you choose. Strip board sorting, call sheets and shot coverage cost nothing.
- Up to 6 credits
Schedule priorities
Write what matters in plain words; AI reads it into rules for the free Schedule Wizard, which builds the full schedule.
- 15 credits
Schedule review
A second look at the whole schedule, with each issue it finds shown on the strip board.
- At most 30 credits
VFX breakdown
Scene by scene, what can be done practically on set told apart from real VFX, with a complexity rating for each shot.
- At most 3 credits a message
Budget and schedule chat
Ask about the budget or the board in plain English.
Run the whole production in one place
The Free plan holds 2 active projects with 50 AI credits to try, and the whole development suite. Step up when the shoot needs more.
