Hey Product Hunters 👋 I’m one of the screenwriters behind Story Department. We built this because we kept hitting the same wall: an international opportunity would appear, but translating a full screenplay professionally before funding was too expensive. Generic AI tools flattened dialogue and broke formatting. Translating it ourselves meant weeks of late nights. So we built the tool we needed. Story Department translates full FDX screenplays while preserving structure, scene numbering, and character voice. You can lock terminology decisions and export a clean Final Draft file in minutes. A few things were non-negotiable for us: – We don’t sell data – We don’t train general AI models on your scripts – We don’t store content beyond what’s needed to deliver the translation It started as an internal workflow tool for our own films. Now we’re opening it up. I’d genuinely love feedback, especially from anyone working across languages in film or TV. Happy to answer anything.
