What free means here

No trial that expires. No page cap.

Many so-called "free" screenwriting platforms hit you with limits the moment you try to use them seriously—capped at two or three scripts, locked behind page counts, or stamped with watermarks that scream amateur hour. 熙熙 takes a different approach: the writing core remains free forever, because our business model sits downstream from the page itself, in the storyboarding and production pipeline where the real work begins.

No trial period, the free plan does not expire
No limit on projects or pages
PDF and Final Draft export included
You upgrade only if you want storyboards or production

When the project grows

Storyboard your script without starting over.

When you're ready to visualize your film, everything stays inside the same unified project. 熙熙 automatically breaks down your screenplay shot by shot and generates a complete storyboard populated with your own characters and locations—no need to export files, migrate data, or manually retype scene descriptions into a separate tool.

iPad? 熙熙 runs entirely in the browser, which means it works seamlessly on Mac, Windows, Linux, iPad and Android tablets without requiring separate downloads or installs for each platform.

back to the cloud when you reconnect to the

internet. Are my scripts private? Yes, completely. Your projects are treated as private creative work and are never published, scraped, or shared with anyone without your explicit permission—what you write belongs entirely to you. What is paid, then? Only the

For the actual writing process

, yes: you get professional industry-standard formatting and Final Draft export at no

cost, which covers the core workflow most screenwriters need.
