My Beat Board tool makes your episode structure visible — act by act, beat by beat. With storyline color coding and turning points wherever you need them. For 25-, 45- and 60-minute formats.
Assign each beat a storyline — color coding instantly shows which narrative threads run through the episode, where they intersect, and whether the balance is right.
Double-click to mark any beat as a turning point — visually highlighted and instantly recognizable. So you can see at a glance whether your episode’s turning points land exactly where they belong.
Each beat gets its own card — resizable! Episode structure becomes immediately visible. And you know at a glance whether you have enough beats. Or too many.
Ready-made act structures for all common series formats.
Four fully completed example series built in — in German and English. See how pros structure their beats and use them as inspiration for your own work.
Print the finished Beat Board as PDF or share digitally — ideal for writers’ room meetings and quick feedback rounds.
Your stories stay on your computer. No cloud, no account.
Complete interface and all examples available in German and English.
