Industry-standard screenwriting and stage-play formatting for feature, television, and stage. No Markdown, no syntax: what you type is what gets exported. Mac and Windows. Free 14-day trial, then $11.99/mo, or $99/year.
I'm Charlie, and Typerino is the screenwriting and playwriting app I wanted and couldn't find. I love the craft and I've spent a lot of time inside the existing tools. I've spent my career as a software designer & builder, so naturally I built my own.
The writing engine is designed from the ground up around a single goal: that it should feel great and look great. Typing should feel crisp and delightful. No perceptible delay between thought and word on the page, even in a feature-length script. Industry-standard formatting is there, the writing surface is clean and quiet, and it runs natively on both Mac and Windows.
I'm calling this 1.0, but I think of it the way screenwriters think of a first draft — the thing you ship so you can start making it better. It's not everything I want it to be yet. It is something I trust you to write in. I'll be patching and adding fast, and I'd genuinely love your notes on what to sharpen next.
Easiest way to feel the difference: download it, open a blank script, and just type for thirty seconds.
I am sure Typerino is a great product, just curious what makes it better than celtx or other tools? I have used Celtx for a couple of stage play scripts a few years ago.
This looks really promising! I've already started to import my scripts from StudioBinder to keep working Typerino!
The “just type for thirty seconds” point is a good way to frame it. For writing tools, speed and feel matter as much as features, especially when someone is working on a long script.
This is so nicely designed. Have you thought about making themes or ereader export?
Congrats Charlie, I’ve been looking for something like this to accompany me in a screenwriting course I’m currently doing. Love the scene and character sidebars, as I personally sometime find it hard to hold onto structure on other writing tools. Will take this for a spin 🙏
