Description:

Beat is an elegant screenwriting app with focus on story structure. It has as little distractions as possible to let you concentrate on writing. The app was created by a screenwriter for other screenwriters.

Beat lets you write in a flow. Just start typing and let Beat take care of the formatting.

The app is totally free and open source, and will remain so – most importantly because free creative software can enable new, aspiring artists from different backgrounds. There might a paid 'pro' version later in the future to cover up the costs of the development, but the core app will always be free of charge.
