### Character names that fit the decade[](https://www.inkwell.software/de/changelog/2026-08#period-character-names)

A free name desk for period work. Give it a story year and an age, or a birth decade, and it rolls given names people were actually being called when your character was born.

- Place a name by story year plus age, by birth decade, or by period, and the desk works out which records to pull from.
- Filter by gender, popularity, first letter and an avoid list. Shuffle, lock the ones you want to keep, and reroll the rest.
- Check a name you have already drafted and it tells you whether that name belongs in that decade.
- Names come from the US national birth records from 1880 on, and from curated period lists before that — the desk says which, and where the records run out.
- It runs in your browser. Your cast list is not sent anywhere.

### What screenwriting actually pays[](https://www.inkwell.software/de/changelog/2026-08#screenwriter-pay-desk)

A free desk on screenwriter pay: the 2026 WGA minimums by contract family and writing step, what residuals add on top, and how the floors sit against published earnings for writers generally.

- Look up a Guild floor by contract family, writing step and year, for feature and television work.
- See what residuals add, with High-Budget SVOD shown as the three-year total it is rather than a floor.
- Read the floors next to published earnings for writers generally, so a minimum is not mistaken for a salary.
- The explorer is a tool in its own right, and the family, step and year you pick live in the link — send someone the exact readout.
- Every figure names where it came from.

### Faster everyday writing in Plot[](https://www.inkwell.software/de/changelog/2026-08#faster-everyday-writing)

Typing, ghost text and returning to your projects all respond faster.

- Typing stays smoother in longer drafts, with less delay between a keystroke and the updated page.
- Ghost text appears sooner, and a closed sidebar doesn't slow the page.
- Your projects page shows your projects sooner, and fills in the totals without holding you up.

### Free screenplay format converter[](https://www.inkwell.software/de/changelog/2026-08#screenplay-format-converter)

Open a Final Draft .fdx or a Fountain draft in your browser, read it as real screenplay pages, and take it out as a PDF, Fountain, or plain text.

- Pages are laid out in industry format — Courier 12pt, the 1.5-inch binding margin, scene numbers in the margins — using the same page-break calculator as Inkwell's own PDF export, so the page count is the page count.
- The PDF comes from your browser's print dialog.
- Every conversion reports what it costs in that specific file: which elements come across unchanged, which arrive as action, and what production state stays in Final Draft.
- Scene numbers print in the margin, where a shooting script puts them.

### Screenplay pacing desk and pacing map[](https://www.inkwell.software/de/changelog/2026-08#screenplay-pacing-desk-and-map)

Page count says how long a draft is; pacing is how that length is spread. A new desk shows how produced screenplays pace themselves, and a pacing map places your draft on the same curves, right in your browser.

- Measured action share, scene density, and speaking-cast arrival across ten equal stretches of a screenplay, with the middle half of published practice shaded behind each curve and every value listed in a table beneath it.
- Pacing map reads a Fountain or Final Draft file in your browser and draws your draft's curves over the produced range, with a scene-length ribbon and where the draft sits on eight whole-draft measures.
- Reports position, never a grade: it does not detect an inciting incident, an act break, or a midpoint, and it states when a draft is outside the population it is being compared to.

### Reviewable AI writing controls in Plot[](https://www.inkwell.software/de/changelog/2026-08#reviewable-ai-writing-controls)

Bring the right part of a screenplay into an AI conversation, compare inline alternatives or skill-generated takes, and review proposed writing changes in the editor before they join the draft.

- Mention a scene or act in Ask so the conversation starts with the context you chose.
- Compare inline-edit alternatives in place, or generate skill passes as separate takes without overwriting the working draft.
- Open proposed changes as reviewable editor hunks, keep or reject each one, and incorporate the result only when it is ready.

### Screenplay length desk and private checker[](https://www.inkwell.software/de/changelog/2026-08#screenplay-length-desk-and-checker)

See how screenplay length varies by format and genre, then place a laid-out PDF page count against those ranges with optional Final Draft story context in the browser.

- The research desk separates format conventions from measured screenplay-length distributions instead of presenting one universal target.
- Enter the page count from a laid-out PDF; an optional Final Draft file adds story-word and scene-count context, not pagination.
- Results describe the draft and its comparison range; they do not grade the story or upload its text.

### Free script breakdown tool[](https://www.inkwell.software/de/changelog/2026-08#free-script-breakdown-tool)

Break down a Fountain or Final Draft screenplay privately in the browser — scene sheets, eighths, cast, locations, and exportable CSVs — then read how the inventory differs from coverage.

- Private first-pass ledger from Fountain or FDX: scenes, eighths, cast, locations, and day/night.
- Interactive stripboard plus CSV exports, all in your browser.
- Learn guide and glossary now point at the same production inventory Plot uses for reports.

### Private screenplay review and submission tools[](https://www.inkwell.software/de/changelog/2026-08#private-screenplay-review-tools)

Inspect a Final Draft file, compare two screenplay drafts, check a submission PDF, and explore screenplay structure, all in your browser.

- FDX Inspector shows the document structure and production data inside a Final Draft file before a move or cleanup.
- Screenplay Diff compares two drafts by scene and text while keeping both files in the browser.
- The Submission Center pairs current opportunity profiles with a browser-local PDF preflight, and the Screenplay Anatomy Atlas publishes aggregate structural patterns from 2,077 screenplays.
