Script notes from readers you can actually trust

A community-driven marketplace where screenwriters get structured feedback and readers build reputation. The best notes rise. The best readers earn.

★ Trusted Reader
4.8/5 helpfulness
Would you keep reading?
Yes. The opening image is strong and the protagonist's want is clear by page 4. I'd turn to page 11.
Biggest Issue
The inciting incident lands on page 8 but the setup doesn't earn it. Consider seeding the central conflict earlier.
One Specific Fix
Move the diner scene to page 2. It does more work than the current cold open.
First 10 pages

Getting script feedback right now is broken

Reddit and Discord

Unstructured, inconsistent, no accountability. You might get gold. You'll probably get nothing useful. No way to filter for quality.

Paid coverage services

$75 to $200 per read. Slow turnaround. One shot, one opinion. No relationship with the reader. Too expensive for iteration.

Friends and writing groups

Too kind, too vague, or too busy. You can't iterate quickly. You burn social capital every time you ask for another read.

Two routes to better feedback

Start free with community notes. Go paid when you need stronger reads.

Community
