Executive summary

A tense near-future chamber thriller with a clean containment hook, a distinct visual identity, and a protagonist whose moral compromise lands with real weight.

Key risk · Third act resolves its central question one beat early — the final reversal needs more cost.

Executive summary

A confident ensemble pilot with a strong engine and a vivid lead, held back by a second act that resolves tension faster than it builds it.

Key risk · Series-long question is implied but never stated — the pilot under-sells its own runway.

Executive summary

Rich interiority and a strong sense of place give this a credible prestige-limited path, though the plot is more interior than a feature can comfortably carry.

Key risk · Adaptation value skews television; the film case depends on a structural device the book never resolves.

Executive summary

A promising world and a marketable genre lane, but the treatment leans on premise over story — the protagonist has a situation, not yet an arc.

Key risk · No clear escalation or turn; the central conflict is asserted rather than dramatised. Not ready for development.

Process

Four moves from draft to decision.

StoryHQ keeps the work legible: upload the material, run the analysis, review the evidence, then generate the production-ready outputs.

01

1 · Upload

Drop the PDF

Bring in a script, book, article, outline, or treatment. StoryHQ extracts the project facts and prepares the workspace.

02

2 · Analyse

Run the read

Generate structured coverage, scoring, synopsis, buyer fit, risks, strengths, and evidence-backed notes.

03

3 · Review

Interrogate the result

Use Q, report sections, comps, and draft evidence to pressure-test what the material needs next.

04

4 · Generate

Create the package

Export notes, scene breakdowns, cast lists, HOD lists, comparisons, and clean PDFs for the room.

Solution

A development room with memory.

StoryHQ gives teams a shared place to read, score, discuss, compare, export, and return to the same evidence later.

01

Coverage

Executive-grade reports without the coverage bottleneck.

Scorecards, commercial analysis, buyer fit, comps, synopsis, and development notes live in one structured report.

02

Workspace

One slate for the whole development room.

Active projects, library submissions, pinned priorities, team messages, and activity history stay in the same workspace.

03

Drafts

Track what changed, not just what uploaded.

Compare drafts, generate notes from the report, and keep every decision attached to the material that caused it.

Built for the room

Less chasing. More deciding.

Uploads, reports, notes, comments, draft comparisons, and Q conversations stay attached to the project. The next person gets the context, not a cold folder.

Project assistant

Ask Q about the draft — not the internet.

Q is a scoped assistant tied to each project. It answers from the material you uploaded, the StoryHQ report, generated notes, and draft comparisons — so every answer is grounded in this script, with the evidence attached.

Grounded

Did draft 3 address the act-two stakes note?

Partly. The midpoint reversal now lands on p.58 (was p.71), which tightens act two. But the report’s key risk — the antagonist’s leverage isn’t dramatised before the climax — is still open in this draft.

Q stays inside the project. It will not invent facts or answer off-topic — every reply traces back to your materials, report, and notes.
