   Why would curing patients not be a good business model? Of course it is, if you charge the right price, just like “building and selling (not leasing out) houses” can be a good business model. No subscription or 2nd order effects needed.

    I agree with this being about workflows, not documents, but isn't branching and merging a workflow and storytelling tool? It allows multiple people to work in parallel (and in private). When somebody sends a pull-request eventually, th

    Thanks for the kind words! Would be great to learn what kind of format you'd use for writing lyrics. m@arcstudiopro.com The OT is custom and clj/s was the perfect tool for the job. Highly recommended.

    Arc Studio Pro and Highland are very different. Highland is macOS only and more of a minimal editor built around the fountain format (think markdown for screenplays), and has a very unique formatting UI. Arc Studio Pro wants to support the

    Thanks Josh! Yes, we're definitely going to support formats other than Hollywood-style screenplays in the near future. Would be great to learn more about the needs for collaboration in book publishing.

    It's true that the space is really crowded, but we also felt that all the other tools focused on formatting and not much else. We wanted to consider the whole screenwriting process: collecting first ideas, outlining, distraction-free w

    Thanks for the kind words! We do plan to offer backups to Google Drive and Dropbox, i.e. you can have your screenplays placed there automatically and periodically, to avoid data lock in. Or are you thinking of a closer integration, e.g. bei

    I've often had the same experience, people's workflows are pretty ingrained (in general, not just screenwriters). But I've done some pitches where a writer had a lightbulb moment, and realized that collab and versioning reall

    I thought it was great that screenwriters already had a notion of version control – once a screenplay goes into production, later revisions receive a color and are referred to as such, e.g. blue draft, pink draft. Pages that contained chang

    Hey, Michi here, from Arc Studio Pro. As MartinMond said, this is indeed an attempt to bring a GitHub style workflow to a field outside of software development. The app is written in Clojure(Script), implementing OT for collaboration. Happy
