Fountain Man

Fountain+ Man is a screenwriting bot that turns any script in your Discord server into an industry-standard screenplay in one right-click - no uploads, no sign-in, no tab switch.

There are no magic servers, generated content, AI or LLMs.

It's just you fighting against the paper to write the next screenplay, storyboard, manga, comic or webtoon - and a one-click export to Final Draft (.fdx) when you're done.

Paste a scene or drop a file in the channel, right-click it, and get it back formatted.

Convert a draft to any screenplay format and open it in your favourite screenwriting software - solo, or collaborative screenwriting with your co-writers in the same channel.

The Mangaplay format is a superset of the Fountain markup language, with flexible tags to produce storyboards, comics, manga, webtoons and manhwa - one-click export to professional screenplay formats when you're done.
