Each script receives a First-Look Score & Report that reflects what truly matters: structure, originality, emotional impact, cinematic execution, and marketability. The analysis is built on patterns and standards drawn from thousands of professional coverage examples, ensuring consistent, structured feedback aligned with industry expectations. Writers use the notes to refine their work, and buyers instantly see how close a script is to being production ready. Scripts rated 8.0+ are considered ready for the room, while 9.0+ signals a rare, elevated piece of work.

First-Look was created to work with the industry, not around it. Agents, managers, and lawyers remain essential to a writer’s career. The platform simply helps writers gain visibility earlier and makes it easier for reps to discover new talent.

Writers without representation can use First-Look solo to build momentum. Once they attract attention, they can invite reps to join their account and manage opportunities together. For represented writers, First-Look becomes a shared tool that streamlines discovery, feedback, and outreach across the entire team.

First-Look is launching first in the horror space, but all genres are welcome. You can upload any screenplay to receive a First-Look Score & Report right now, even if it falls outside horror.
