Slatefox is a web-based production planning tool for indie crews taking a script toward a shoot. Paste script text to create scenes and characters, or use its AI Script Parser to produce scenes, cast, and breakdowns in one pass. Build a stripboard, arrange shoot days on a calendar, and view page totals. Slatefox generates PDF call sheets with sun, weather, and cast call times, and creates day-out-of-days reports automatically. Continuity notes and photos can be pinned to scenes. The Day Simulator updates overtime, daylight, turnaround, and day structure as you try schedule changes. Auto Day-Out proposes scene groupings based on location, interior or exterior, day or night, and cast availability, which you can review before applying. Slatefox says it works offline, requires no account, and keeps scripts on users’ devices; cloud sync is available to carry productions across devices. The Free plan is free. Indie costs 19.00 EUR per month, and Studio costs 59.00 EUR per month.
