![]() So what does it take to get started with WriterDuet? Is is affordable? What I find interesting about WriterDuet is, it is online based. And then the other screenwriting software was just so cost prohibitive. And invariably, there was a lot of stuff that you could plug into Microsoft Word, but those solutions were just never quite there. Jason Brubaker: Early in my career, I would scour the internet for free screenwriting software. We have developed the product based on the writer’s feedback and experience. I’ve been part of some screenwriting communities where we get a lot of feedback, and that has been why we’ve grown. Jason Brubaker: Is that because you’re very open to feedback from screenwriters? Fortunately, we’ve gotten pretty good traction that way. We just make the product and assume that screenwriters like it enough to tell their friends. And we have a very dedicated, passionate user base. Guy Goldstein: We have hundreds of thousands of users on WriterDuet. Jason Brubaker: And by caught on, and you don’t have to get into any specific numbers, but I imagine you have a pretty good user base at this point. That product itself is now plugged in inside Writer Duet, but Writer duet was the one that actually caught on. It had the ability to have humans record their lines so you could actually have a full cast of people recording scripts, and that got me down this direction. So I ended up making it as a real product. ![]() ![]() And different computer voices would read each character, so you would wind up having a few people interested in it. Guy Goldstein: I could get through a lot of scripts that way. Jason Brubaker: That’s sounds like an awesome way to read scripts! Guy Goldstein: The first thing I built was not Writer Duet, the first thing I built for writers was something called Read Through, which allows you to hear computer voices perform your script and that was just written as a thing for myself, so I could I listen to my own scripts and other people’s scripts in the car rides that I was taking in L.A which could take anywhere between 20 minutes and 3 hours. Jason Brubaker: So what was the first thing that you built? Screenwriting Software: Why WriterDuet Is Awesome I got a job doing software, and decided I just wanted to make tools for myself. So I was writing for a few years, trying to see if I could get into Hollywood but at the same time, I’ve been a computer programmer since I was 13. Guy Goldstein: Yeah, unfortunately, along with want to be, not very talented would also describe my screenwriting experience. I mean, you are a self-described ‘want-to-be screenwriter’ yet you’re running this really cool tool, to help other screenwriters succeed. So tell me a little bit about how you got started in this whole thing. If you’ve ever tried to write a screenplay, I think this tool will really help you. Guy is the founder and CEO of WriterDuet, a really awesome collaborative screenwriting software program. Jason Brubaker: Today, we’re talking to Guy Goldstein. And I reached out to the CEO to find out how I could become an affiliate (and receive compensation to promote WriterDuet). That started a dialogue which led to the interview I’ve included below: ![]() WriterDuet solves this by allowing any number of people collaborate in real time and see each other’s changes.Īffiliate Disclosure: I was super excited about this screenwriting software. But aside from assuring proper format or making exporting easy, very few options allow you to collaborate with other writers. When it comes to screenwriting software, there are lots of options on the market.
