Message 1: r/Screenwriting (PRIMARY)

Send to: https://www.reddit.com/message/compose?to=%2Fr%2FScreenwriting

Subject: Request: Beta testing recruitment post for screenwriting tool

Hi r/Screenwriting moderators,

I'm reaching out to request approval for a beta recruitment post I'd like to share with your community.

**What we're building:**
Scripter is a new screenwriting platform created by writers, for writers. We're launching a 3-week beta program (May 3-24) and looking for 100 serious screenwriters to test it out.

**Why I'm asking permission first:**
I know r/Screenwriting has rules about self-promotion, and I want to respect that. This isn't a typical promo post - we're offering:
- Free lifetime Pro access (no catch)
- Direct input on product development
- Weekly 5-min feedback surveys
- Bug bounties for critical issues

**What the post includes:**
- Honest comparison to existing tools (Final Draft, WriterDuet)
- Clear beta requirements and expectations
- AMA - I'll be in comments answering questions for several hours
- No spam, genuine engagement with the community

**The ask:**
- Post date: May 3, 2026
- Title: "Beta testing a modern Final Draft alternative - looking for 100 writers"
- Full post draft available for your review: [link to draft if needed]

I'm happy to:
- Adjust the post to meet your guidelines
- Provide any additional info about the product
- Remove the post if it's not a good fit

**About me:**
I'm a screenwriter building tools I wish existed. Our team includes working screenwriters who understand the pain points of Final Draft's expensive, outdated software.

Thanks for considering! I appreciate the work you do to keep this community valuable.

Best,

Send to: https://www.reddit.com/message/compose?to=%2Fr%2Filmmakers

Subject: Request: Cross-post for screenwriters in your community

Hi r/Filmmakers moderators,

I'm reaching out to request approval for a cross-post that would be relevant to the screenwriters in your community.

**What we're building:**
Scripter is a new screenwriting platform, and we're launching a 3-week beta program (May 3-24) looking for 100 serious writers.

**Why this might fit r/Filmmakers:**
I know many filmmakers here also write scripts. This beta offers:
- Free lifetime Pro access
- Real-time collaboration (great for writer-director teams)
- Direct input on product development

**The post:**
I'd like to cross-post from r/Screenwriting with a note that it's specifically for the writers in your community. Happy to tailor the message to fit your guidelines.

**Timeline:**
- Post date: May 3, 2026
- I'll be available for AMA-style comments

I'm happy to adjust the post to meet your guidelines or remove it if it's not a good fit.

Thanks for considering!
