Compatibility & release status

Page & Frame is preparing an Apple Silicon Mac beta. Signing, distribution and clean-machine checks remain; Windows and Intel Mac need separate validation. There is no public download or checkout yet.

FDX import is the intended launch path for existing Final Draft scripts. Full revision/version-history transfer, guaranteed edited round trips and exact page-for-page parity are deferred. Keep your original and review imported work.

Our current build exports storyboard PDFs and silent WebM animatics. Previs Pro’s AR, FaceCap/PoseCap, animated-camera and MP4/NLE workflows are not covered. Across these products, full feature parity is not the current claim.

Purchase, AI & project privacy

The announced price is US$69.99 at launch and US$99.99 regular. Final licence scope, tax and update terms will be published before checkout opens. Unlimited AI generation and lifetime updates are not included promises.

Core writing and planning use local project files. Optional AI uses your own provider key, sends the requested material to that provider and may incur separate charges. The launch list stores your email and platform preference, not your screenplay.
