Import any script, and review it before it lands
The Import script window in the Narration Studio was rebuilt from the ground up: it reads more kinds of text, shows you exactly what it will create, and never deletes work by default.
- A review pane before anything lands: Paste, upload or dictate, and the right-hand pane shows the sections, blocks and speakers the import will create. Rename or merge sections, keep or drop any block, and map a detected speaker to one of your characters, all before you press Import.
- Transcripts, screenplays, captions, documents and slide decks: "HOST: line" transcripts become speakers, screenplay cues become turns with their parentheticals as styles, SRT and VTT captions become timed blocks, DOCX and EPUB chapters and PDF outlines become sections, and a PPTX becomes one section per slide. Page numbers, running headers and footnotes are left out, with the reason shown.
- Put it where you want it, and undo if you change your mind: Append after the last section, insert after any block, replace one section, or replace the whole script. Every import can be undone from the toast or the Activity panel, and a replaced script comes back exactly as it was, audio included.
- Update from a file without regenerating what did not change: Import a new version of the same file and only the paragraphs you edited become new blocks. Everything else keeps its row and its audio.
- Tag lint, @ autocomplete, and Structure with AI: Mistyped tags, pauses without a unit and one speaker spelled two ways are listed with a one-click fix. Typing @ at the start of a line suggests your characters. Structure with AI can find the speakers in unattributed dialogue, split prose into scenes, or clean up a scanned document, for credits, with your words kept intact.
- Large imports run in the background: On plans with batch document import, very long scripts and web pages are imported in the background with progress in the Activity panel, so the studio stays responsive.
