Greenlight decisions, backed by evidence.

ReelPen turns scripts and manuscripts into auditable, page-cited reports. Powered by a wholly proprietary algorithmic system — no open-source models, no third-party LLM wrappers, no off-the-shelf components. Used by acquisition teams, lit agents, and development executives to triage submissions with the rigor of a quant desk.

Currently in private beta with a small group of partner studios and agencies. Public launch later this year.

03 — Benchmark

The reader workflow, re-engineered.

Reader notes are slow, expensive, and inconsistent across desks. ReelPen produces an auditable equivalent in hours — and surfaces the rules that drove every recommendation.

04 — Methodology

From PDF to auditable verdict, in four steps.

Every analysis follows the same pipeline. Every artifact is preserved. Every score is reproducible — re-run the same script next quarter and you can diff the result.

Step 01

Ingest

Upload PDF, FDX, or pasted text. The engine normalizes scenes, beats, and dialogue into a structured representation.

≤ 2 min · automated

Step 02

Score

Six dimensions scored against the benchmark set. Confidence intervals attached. Outliers flagged for human review.

≈ 3 hrs · model + reviewer

Step 03

Cite

Each finding is linked to the specific page, beat, or scene that triggered it. Every claim is auditable.

automated · human-verified

Step 04

Deliver

Signed PDF report, structured JSON, or direct hand-off into your acquisition pipeline via API.

05 — Customers

What heads of development are saying.

ReelPen reports sit alongside reader coverage in slate review meetings at independent studios, mid-size publishers, and lit agencies on three continents.

We cut external coverage spend by 47% in the first quarter. The verdicts are sharper than half our freelance pool, and the citations make it actionable in a slate meeting.

Head of Development · Meridian Pictures

The Market Validator brief is what we walk into every greenlight conversation with now. The comparable-vector approach catches positioning we would have missed in committee.

Daniel Ahn

VP, Acquisitions · Halverson & Co.

Our agents triage 40+ submissions a week. ReelPen's coverage tier replaced our outsourced first-pass entirely — the SLA alone justified the switch.

For a publisher pivoting into IP licensing, the adaptation-readiness signals are the most valuable single tool we've adopted in five years.

06 — Frequently asked

Compliance, security, and the basics.

For procurement, legal, and information-security questions not addressed below, request our security packet — it covers SOC 2, data-handling, and IP-protection terms.

Q.01

How is the score actually computed?

Six dimensions — concept, structure, character, dialogue, theme, marketability — each scored by ReelPen's proprietary algorithm. The composite is anchored against canonical industry works and tier-classified into Canonical / Distinguished / Certified / Verified / Develop / Reject bands. Internal weights, corpus composition, and calibration parameters are not disclosed. Every component score traces back to a specific artifact in the script.

Q.02

What happens to my script after analysis?

Submitted IP is stored encrypted, never used for training, and purged on request. Enterprise contracts include explicit data-residency and on-prem analysis options. NDAs are countersigned within 24 hours of intake.

Q.03

Can ReelPen plug into our existing acquisition pipeline?

Yes. We expose a JSON-over-HTTPS API, deliver signed PDF reports for legacy workflows, and offer pre-built integrations with the major submission-management platforms. SSO via SAML or OIDC on enterprise tier.

Q.04

Does this replace our readers?

It is not designed to. ReelPen replaces the first-pass triage layer so your senior readers spend their time on shortlisted material. Most customers see reader hours redirected, not eliminated.

Q.05

Is there a volume discount?

Yes — slate-volume agreements start at 100 reports per quarter and include dedicated SLA, named CSM, and custom benchmark calibration against your historical greenlight set.

Bring quantitative rigor to your slate.

Two-week pilot. Up to ten scripts analyzed at no charge. Walk away with a side-by-side benchmark against your reader coverage on the same titles.
