**Subject:** Request: Beta testing recruitment post for screenwriting tool
Hi r/[Subreddit] 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/[Subreddit] 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
- 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
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]
Thanks for considering! I appreciate the work you do to keep this community valuable.
Best,
