G-Script

Client overview

G-Script was launched in Germany by a screenwriter and his team with the goal of improving the efficiency of traditional screenwriting tools. By transforming Google Docs into a professional screenwriting editor, G-Script combines the flexibility of a web application and a browser extension to provide an unparalleled screenwriting experience.

Project development

G-Script's journey unfolded through three main iterations over the course of a year, evolving from an initial concept focused on enhancing Google Docs for screenwriting to a robust SaaS platform equipped with a custom browser extension. Each iteration brought us one step closer to solving the core problem: simplifying the process for screenwriters to share scripts and receive feedback.

Iteration 1: The challenge was integrating screenwriting features directly into Google Docs, which ran into difficulties due to the platform's limitations.

Iteration 2: We experimented with a standalone web application aimed at combining the benefits of a dedicated screenwriting tool with the convenience of Google Docs exporting. However, we encountered limitations in providing a fully integrated Google Docs experience.

Iteration 3 (Final Solution): The breakthrough was the development of a web application paired with a browser extension. This version layers a professional screenwriting editor on top of Google Docs, combining the simplicity of Google Docs with advanced screenwriting functionalities. Features include industry-standard formatting, dynamic and static variables, AI-powered writing tools, and real-time synchronization with Google Docs.

Innovative web design

‍At the core of the project is an intuitive and visually appealing web design, meticulously planned in Figma and developed in Webflow. The website serves as the gateway to the G-Script application, reflecting the platform's unique blend of functionality and aesthetics. The design prioritizes ease of use while embodying G-Script's vibrant identity, ensuring screenwriters can navigate the platform effortlessly.

Technical implementation

Utilizing Next.js for both frontend and backend development and Supabase for database management, we created a scalable SaaS platform and an admin panel for managing users, administrators, and viewing usage statistics. This final iteration offers seamless two-way synchronization between the G-Script editor and Google Docs, ensuring that changes made in one are instantly reflected in the other. Furthermore, we established separate development and production environments, guaranteeing a secure space for future enhancements without compromising the user experience.

Results and impact

G-Script has redefined screenwriting by eliminating the constraints of sharing scripts and receiving feedback. With its launch on major browser stores, screenwriters now have access to a powerful tool that integrates seamlessly with Google Docs, supports real-time collaboration, and offers advanced screenwriting features accessible from any browser. The platform’s language switching capability, including support for Arabic, broadens its reach and utility across global markets.
