Three tools · one sign-in

Write the character, block the scene, cut the take.

Character chat, plan-view blocking and browser editing — three purpose-built tools behind one sign-in. The scene moves with you instead of living in three apps.

Runs in the browser. Nothing to install. Your masters stay where they are.

One scene, three stations. Characters written in Chat stand up in Draw; the order you board them is the order Video opens.

How it works

Three tools, in the order you reach for them.

01 — Chat

Write them once. Talk for as long as the story needs.

A character is personality, scenario and portrait, saved together. Open the thread a week later and they still remember the argument.

  • Personality, scenario and portrait live with the character, not in a doc
  • Personas — choose who you are in the scene, name and pronouns included
  • Threads keep their history — nothing resets between sessions
Nadia — vent shaft
Portrait
Traits

Wary. Counts exits.

The vent's still warm. Somebody was in here before us.
Mira — you
How long ago?
Ten minutes. Less, if they were running.
You: Mira — she/her
Plan view — 1 : 100
Read back
02 — Draw

Block the scene from above, then read it back as a board.

Build the set out of walls and objects. Put actors and cameras on it, give them waypoints, and the sequence writes itself.

  • Walls and objects — a real set, not a mood board
  • Actors and cameras move along waypoints and paths
  • The blocking reads back as a storyboard, panel per beat
03 — Video

Cut in the browser. Never touch the master.

Import the card, get a 720p proxy in seconds, and cut against it. The timeline is a decision list — the export re-renders from the originals.

  • MP4, MOV, ProRes and RAW in — a 720p editing proxy out
  • Cuts and reorders are stored as a decision list, not a new file
  • Export re-renders from the masters at full resolution
