Script breakdown software — macOS
Stop rewriting your breakdown every draft.
FlipTheScript is a Mac app built for art departments. Import your script, tag your elements, export your breakdown. When the next draft lands, your work carries over automatically.

Save hours every draft.
Scene detection happens automatically. Import a PDF and your scenes are ready to work through — no copy-pasting, no reformatting, no manually counting pages.
Stop losing work between drafts.
Import the revised script and FlipTheScript shows you exactly what changed. Your existing breakdowns carry forward. You only have to touch what actually moved.
Keep your whole department consistent.
One element library. Same character names, same prop names, across every scene. No more 'BAZOOKA' in one sheet and 'Bazooka' in another three.
Your scripts stay on your machine.
No accounts. No cloud sync. No risk of a sensitive script sitting on someone else's server. Everything lives locally, always.
