How it works

A studio clearance department, run by agents

Drop in a screenplay. Five minutes later: every rights problem, rating risk, safety hazard, and censorship trap — cited, verified, priced, and anchored to your pages. Here is exactly what happens in between, and what you can do with each piece.

The one non-negotiable rule: a finding without a citation does not appear in your report. Anyone can ask an AI "what's risky in this script" and get a confident paragraph. SCRIPTRISK returns claims you can hand to a lawyer — verbatim sourced text, re-checked by an independent verifier before it reaches you.

1 · Parse & triage

Deterministic parser + a fast reading pass

Your screenplay is split into scenes with exact page anchors — no AI in the parser, so scene references are always right. Then triage extracts every clearance-relevant entity and writes each desk's worklist.

From a real run "Hallelujah" → MUSIC, plot-critical · Coors Light → BRAND, depicted negatively · burning boat + minor → SAFETY worklist

2 · Clearance Counsel

Rights & clearances · live web research

Does this use need a license, from whom, and at what cost? Music gets the full chase: composition and master are separately owned, and the desk follows both chains to the current rightsholder.

What you get F101 · sync license — "Hallelujah" · OBTAIN_LICENSE · est. $10,000–$50,000 · cited to easysong.com & Variety

3 · Ratings Board

Evidence-based MPA prediction · 2,487-film corpus, updated Aug 2026

It counts your rating drivers — never estimates them — then finds the released films whose content sits nearest to yours and reads their actual ratings. If you target a lower rating, you get the exact beats that buy it.

What you get Predicted R vs PG-13 target · 7 of 8 nearest comparables rated R · "Cut 2 of 3 F-bombs, keep the one in S011"

4 · Safety Underwriter

Reads like a completion-bond underwriter

Hazards stack: a boat fire is one risk — a boat fire at night with a child and a dog in an adjacent skiff is a much bigger one. Each hazard gets the specialists, permits, and rule-of-thumb costs an insurer will demand.

What you get Stacked pyro + water + night + minor · marine coordinator, fire marshal permit, safety boats · est. cost & added days

5 · Territory Censor

US · UK · China · UAE

What gets cut or blocks release, market by market, under each regulator's actual rules — with an honest account of the creative cost when a required cut touches the heart of your film.

What you get Ghost played straight → likely CN refusal · remedy options: reframe as memory, or release without that market

6 · Verify & adjudicate

The quality gate — findings can die here

An independent verifier re-reads every claim against its sources — blind to the desk's reasoning. Unsupported claims are rejected, and your report shows each rejection with the verifier's reason. Then an adjudicator merges duplicates and resolves conflicting remedies.

From a real run territory uae drug use — REJECTED: "the excerpt is a general statement about media regulation; it does not support the claim"
