SoCreate, a new player in the screenwriting software market, is challenging established platforms with its innovative approach to storytelling, incorporating AI-generated imagery and community sharing features.
Key Features of SoCreate:
- Image Uploader Tool: Allows screenwriters to incorporate visual concepts into their scripts
- AI-Powered Image Generator: Coming soon, powered by models like OpenAI and Stable Diffusion
- “Storyteller” Hub: A public library for sharing and reading scripts
- Reading Stats: Provides insights on reader engagement and feedback
SoCreate aims to make the screenwriting process more visual, creative, and engaging compared to traditional methods. The platform offers industry-standard formatting templates while addressing the lack of visual tools in popular screenwriting software.
Founder and CEO Justin Couto envisions expanding Storyteller’s capabilities to include AI-generated character voices, sound effects, and background music in the future.
Platform Details:
- Launched in May 2024
- Over 1,200 subscribers, including writers who have worked for major studios
- Free basic access, with paid tiers starting at $5/month
- Primarily focused on movies, TV shows, and short films, with plans to expand into other writing formats
SoCreate has raised $3 million in pre-seed funding and is currently seeking a $5 million seed round for further development and marketing efforts.
While the platform offers privacy options and encryption for users concerned about plagiarism, Couto argues that public sharing may provide better protection through timestamped proof of authorship.
