Your story, taken seriously.

Submit your screenplay and Mila — our reader — goes through every page and writes you honest coverage: what works, what doesn't, and what to do next. When a script is ready, a person makes the certification call, and you receive a certificate anyone can verify.

How it works

Four steps. No mystery.

The whole process, exactly as it runs — nothing happens to your script that isn't written here.

01

Submit

Upload your screenplay as PDF or Word, add a title and logline, and pay the reading fee — priced for your region, shown before you pay.

02

Coverage

Mila reads every page and writes your coverage: strengths, weaknesses, and concrete next steps. A person reviews her read before anything is decided.

03

Certification

The decision is human. If your script is certified, your certificate is issued with a unique ID and QR code. If not, you get a note that says why — and what to revise.

04

Production

Certified scripts can move into a full production workspace: scene breakdown, cast and star dates, shooting schedule, call sheets, documents and team.

The certificate

Proof, not a badge.

Every certified script receives a certificate with a unique ID and a QR code. It is a forensic timestamp: proof that this exact file, with this exact content, existed on this date.

Anyone can check it on a public verification page — no account needed, no need to take our word for it. Producers can verify what they're looking at; writers keep dated evidence of their work.

Your copyright stays yours. The certificate documents your work — it never takes it.

Your team

Five companions, one studio

Nova isn't a tool that sits beside you. It's a small studio team — each companion named, each leading a part of the journey from story to release.

Clara

Watches over the platform and points you to wherever you need to be.

Mila, Noah, Levi, Elia and Clara are digital companions — software with a name and a job. They read, draft, flag and organise. People make the calls that matter: certification, curation, deals.

Who certifies

One standard, applied by a person.

Certification at NOVA is led by Than Mahebadevan, film producer — through Orange Pictures Ltd, United Kingdom. Every certificate carries a decision someone put their name to. That is the whole point.

Pricing

One fee. Everything included.

The price below is set for your region — and it is exactly what you'll see at checkout. Payments run through Stripe.

Everything in Standard — your script simply moves to the front of the reading queue.

We price by regional purchasing power, so the fee is fair where you live. And to be clear: the fee pays for the reading and the process — it never buys a certification. Optional services are always priced up front before you commit to anything.

For producers

Certified material, honest paperwork.

We are building a curated slate of certified scripts — deliberately small, deliberately vetted. If you want early access as one of our first producers, we'd like to hear from you.

Coverage on record

Every certified script arrives with its written coverage — you see what was praised, what was flagged, and how it was resolved.

A certificate you can check

Verify any NOVA certificate on a public page before you spend a minute on the material.

A workspace ready to go

Scene breakdown, cast and star dates, shooting schedule, call sheets, documents and team — built in, from day one.

Straight answers

The questions writers actually ask

Who reads my script?

Mila, our reader, drafts the coverage. A person reviews her read and makes the certification decision — no script is certified or declined by software alone.

Who sees my script?

Your script sits in private storage. It is not public, not listed anywhere, and not shared with anyone outside the review process without your involvement.

What does the certificate actually prove?

That this exact file, with this exact content, existed on this date — a forensic timestamp with a public verification page. Your copyright remains yours throughout.

Does paying guarantee certification?

No. The fee pays for the reading and the written coverage. If a script isn't ready, it comes back with a note that says why and what to revise.
