Description
ScriptBook is a patented AI platform for screenplay analysis and box office prediction, originally built in 2014, before large language models existed. The company describes its technology as purpose-built machine learning and natural language processing rather than a wrapper around a general chatbot model, and says it has been validated against real Hollywood outcomes at 87% greenlight accuracy compared with an industry average of 36%, tested across more than 100,000 scripts. ScriptBook operates under Deepstory BV.

Writers, producers or studios upload a screenplay in PDF format, for either a feature film or a TV pilot. ScriptBook's engine analyzes the script across more than 6,000 parameters covering story structure, character arcs, dialogue sentiment, genre markers, pacing and thematic content. The company says it does not train on uploaded scripts, and a full report is delivered within 24 hours.
The report covers a box office revenue forecast built on ten years of box office data and ScriptBook's library of more than 100,000 analyzed scripts, an audience age and gender breakdown, character arc and likeability scores for each major character, a predicted genre and MPAA rating, an act-by-act story structure and pacing analysis, and a market fit section comparing the script to similar released titles. ScriptBook also runs a Script Marketplace and offers enterprise options including API integration, OEM partnerships and licensing of its script database.
ScriptBook's technology is patented in both the EU (EP16206566.8) and the US (US 16/389.198). It is aimed at screenwriters, producers and studios who want a data-driven read on a script's commercial and creative potential before committing production budget, and the company positions its older, purpose-trained models as more reliable for this kind of analysis than newer general-purpose AI chatbots.
ScriptBook traces its public launch to April 2017, when it partnered with The Black List, the well-known annual survey of unproduced screenplays, to offer screenwriters a paid AI script report as an alternative to relying purely on industry gatekeepers. The company describes that launch as controversial within the film industry at the time, and it continues to market itself around being an early, patent-protected entrant in AI-driven script analysis rather than a recent GPT-based product.
