Industry-standard screenplay formatting for scene headings, action, characters, parentheticals, and dialogue.
AI screenwriting assistant
A screenplay editor that handles the formatting work, not the artist's choices.
Laper helps screenwriters stay inside the creative flow by taking care of screenplay format, continuity, collaboration, and production organization. It is an assistant for human-led writing, not an autonomous replacement for the writer.
Full-script AI context for continuity checks across characters, locations, foreshadowing, and recurring beats.
Real-time CRDT collaboration for writers' rooms, co-writers, directors, and producers.
Script-derived scenes, characters, locations, storyboards, posters, portraits, and production references.
Built around the screenplay as the source of truth.
In Laper, scene headings derive scenes, character cues derive characters, and location parts derive locations. The writer keeps writing; the system keeps the project organized.
The assistant can review the full screenplay for continuity, format consistency, and structural drift. It can suggest alternatives, but the writer decides what belongs on the page.

WriterDuet alternative
Use Laper when collaboration is only the beginning and you also need full-script AI context, character systems, and production organization.
Sudowrite alternative
Use Laper when the output is a screenplay, not prose. Laper understands screenplay format, scene structure, and film production artifacts.
