Breakdown

AI tags every prop, costume, and SFX in seconds. No more hand-tagging.

The 12-category script breakdown every AD wrestles with — automated by Dolly. Runs the whole screenplay, tags cast, extras, wardrobe, props, vehicles, SFX, VFX, stunts, livestock, special equipment, locations, and set dressing in the correct production colours, then pipes every tagged element into the matching app (Cast, Props, Vehicles, etc.) so you never enter data twice.

Replaces: Legacy scheduling apps and two days of AD labour

What's inside

  • Full-script AI breakdown in a single pass, batched in parallel
  • 12 industry-standard colour categories (StudioBinder-compatible)
  • Scene view and grid view, filterable by category
  • One-click push to Cast, Props, Vehicles, and Schedule
  • Manual overrides preserved across re-runs
  • Exports the classic DOOD-ready breakdown sheet as PDF
  • MMS XML import and export — round-trip your breakdown with any legacy stripboard pipeline
  • Per-element AI confidence scores (0-100%) — sort low-confidence items to the top for human review
  • Five canon tag-library presets — feature, drama, limited series, indie short, commercial — apply on import
  • Multi-language scene-heading parsing — English, Spanish, French, Italian, German
  • Incremental re-analysis — re-run breakdown after a script edit and only the changed scenes re-tag (no charge if nothing changed)

The numbers

Breakdown by the figures.

Every figure below is live in the product today — counted from the running code, not the marketing deck.

12categories

Industry-standard colour coding.

Cast, props, wardrobe, makeup, set dressing, animals, weapons, SFX, VFX, stunts, vehicles, special equipment, locations — every tag in the correct AICP-standard industry colour.

1pass

Full-script breakdown in a single run.

DollyAI™ runs the whole screenplay in batched parallel scenes (configurable batch size), respects manual overrides on re-runs, and only re-tags scenes that actually changed since the last broken-down version.

6downstream apps

Auto-seeds the rest of the suite.

Cast, Props, Vehicles, Locations, Budget hints, Costume continuity — every breakdown row pipes into the matching app idempotently. No duplicate writes on re-runs.

PDF+ DOOD

Industry-format exports.

DOOD-ready breakdown sheet PDF, scene grid view, category grid view — formatted to the breakdown a 1st AD will recognise on first scan.

Breakdown · By Category

Every prop, cast member and location grouped by category.

One AI pass tags the whole script into the 12 industry-standard categories. Flip to the by-category view and your props master, costume designer and location manager each see exactly their list — counts, scenes and all.

The pipeline

Where Breakdown sits in the production flow.

The breakdown is where script becomes production. Every tagged element flows into the matching producer app — cast names land in /cast, props land in /props, locations land in /locations, vehicles land in /vehicles. The schedule, call sheet, and budget all read from the breakdown's per-scene element counts.

Breakdown

Owned by: 1st AD + Production Coordinator

Breakdown strip board — colour-coded scene strips ordered for scheduling across the shooting days.

Breakdown · Strip Board

Colour-coded scene strips, ordered and ready to schedule.

The classic stripboard, generated straight from the tagged script — INT/EXT and day/night colour codes, page counts per strip, ready to drag into shooting order without retyping a single scene.

See it live in the demo →
Breakdown one-liner view — every scene's slugline, cast numbers and page count in a single-line schedule format.

Breakdown · One-Liner

The one-line schedule — every scene's slug, cast and pages in a row.

The document every 1st AD actually reads: one line per scene with slug, cast numbers and pages. Exports clean, prints clean, and stays in sync with the breakdown automatically.

DollyAI™ in this app

3 AI commands wired into Breakdown.

Every command shows its credit cost before you commit. Every response is anchored in your real project — not a generic prompt.

Full-script breakdown

15 cr

Batched parallel pass across the whole screenplay. Diff-aware on re-runs — only changed scenes re-tag.

Per-scene re-tag

1 cr

Re-run breakdown on a single scene after a script edit. Idempotent against downstream autoseeds.

Custom-tag suggestion

2 cr

Reads the scene + asks: what tags are missing that the AI didn't catch? Surfaces stunts, animals, special equipment Dolly might have skipped.

Breakdown · Day Out of Days

Who works when — the DOOD grid straight from the tagged script.

Work, hold and travel days for every cast member, computed from the schedule — the grid that usually takes an afternoon in a spreadsheet, generated in one click and always current.

Shares one project file

Breakdown reads and writes to the same synchronized project as every other app in the suite. Change one thing upstream and every dependent surface picks it up automatically.

Powered by DollyAI™

Dolly reads everything Breakdown needs to know about your project before you even ask. She suggests, you approve — never the other way around.

Never-lose-saves

Every change is autosaved, versioned, and restorable. Roll back Breakdown to any point without losing downstream work.

The Promise

Breakdown is on every tier.

From Solo to Broadcaster. No locked features, no Pro-only exports, no surprise paywalls. Every capability you see on this page ships on every plan — Solo gets exactly the same Breakdown as Broadcaster.
