Script Smith
Short-video script studio
9,00 kr · Designed for iPad. Not verified for macOS.
Scriptsmith is the pre-production studio for short video. Write your script, see if it actually fits the slot, lock your opener, and plan the shoot — all before you hit record. Everything works offline, with no account, no subscription, and no ads.
THE TIMING ENGINE
Stop guessing. As you type, Scriptsmith estimates how long your script takes to say at your chosen speaking pace — and tells you whether it fits your target length. Over by six seconds? It tells you roughly how many words to trim. A 30-second video is only about 80 words; now you'll know before you film, not after.
WRITE IN BEATS
Structure your video the way the best ones are built: Hook → Context → Value → Payoff → Call to Action. Every line is tagged with its role, so you can see the shape of your video at a glance — and spot the beat that's missing. A live pacing bar shows exactly where your time goes.
83 HOOK FORMULAS
The first three seconds decide everything. Browse a curated library of fill-in-the-blank opening formulas across twelve angles — curiosity, contrarian, listicle, story, and more — each with a worked example and the reason it stops the scroll. Drop any hook straight into a script.
23 PROVEN FORMATS
Never start from a blank page. Pick a structure — How-To, Story Time, Myth vs Fact, Hot Take, Before & After, and more — and your script begins with the beats already laid out, plus pacing guidance and a strong call-to-action idea.
PLAN THE SHOOT
Attach a shot list to any script: A-roll, B-roll, on-screen text, props, locations. Check items off as you film so nothing gets forgotten.
REHEARSE THE PACING
Run through your script beat by beat at your target pace, with a gentle haptic on each beat, so you feel the rhythm before the camera is rolling.
LEARN THE CRAFT
Ten in-depth guides on hooks, structure, writing for the ear, pacing, batching, and repurposing — plus quick-reference frameworks and a 32-term glossary.
PRIVATE BY DESIGN
Scriptsmith runs entirely on your device. Your scripts never leave your phone. No account, no network, no tracking, no in-app purchases — ever.
A one-time purchase. An independent creator tool, not affiliated with, endorsed by, or connected to any social platform or app. Runtime figures are estimates and will vary with your delivery.

What's New in Scriptsmith 1.2
Clarity Score — A new 0–100 delivery score appears in the Write tab, below the pacing breakdown. It analyses your script for the four things that trip creators up on camera: sentences over 20 words, passive-voice constructions, filler words (basically, literally, kind of…), and hard-to-pronounce words. Expand the panel to see each issue flagged by name, with the exact snippet and a one-line fix. The score also appears at a glance in the script list so you know which drafts are ready to film before you open them.
Clarity Report export — A new "Clarity report" export mode gives you the full analysis as shareable plain text: score, sentence count, issue list, and every flag. Copy it to the clipboard or share via the iOS share sheet.
Three new frameworks — "Short Sentences Win," "Active Voice Only," and "Cut the Fillers" are added to the Frameworks quick-reference in the Learn tab.
New guide: Write to Be Said — A new guide in the Learn tab explains what the Clarity Score measures, how each issue category affects delivery, and how to improve your score before you film.
