Financial Forecasts

What is the Financial Forecast Feature?

Our Financial Forecast feature provides a detailed profitability projection for your screenplay, helping you make informed decisions about your project’s financial viability. Whether you’re a writer, an independent filmmaker, a producer pitching investors, or a studio executive assessing risk, this tool gives you a comprehensive breakdown of potential revenue across different distribution channels and market scenarios.

How It Works

With the Financial Forecast feature, you’ll receive a data-driven analysis of your project under different outcome percentiles—ranging from low to high budget. The forecast includes:

    • Production Budget: Estimated costs for production at different success levels.
    • Domestic & Foreign P&A (Prints & Advertising): Expected marketing and distribution expenses.
    • Revenue Breakdown: Earnings projections from theatrical rentals, TVOD (Transactional Video on Demand), SVOD

       (Subscription Video on Demand), and home entertainment sales.

    • Domestic & Foreign Margins: A clear view of potential profits across different markets.
  • This feature is only available to Essential or Pro tier subscribers.
    Cost: 1 Greenlight Token.

Proven Success in the Industry

The same financial model powering our Financial Forecast feature has been used by production companies and financiers to greenlight over 40+ feature films in the past 10 years, representing hundreds of millions of dollars in production budgets. This methodology has helped filmmakers and studios make data-driven decisions, optimizing projects for financial success before they enter production.

Why This Matters

Traditionally, filmmakers and writers rely on gut instincts and limited industry data when estimating the financial outlook of a script. Our new feature eliminates the guesswork by providing real, actionable financial insights based on data-driven models. Here’s why it’s a game-changer:

Pitch with Confidence – Show investors concrete financial projections.

Optimize Your Strategy – Adjust your production budget based on realistic market expectations.

Assess Market Viability – Understand how your project might perform in different distribution channels.

Plan for Success – Develop a clear roadmap for profitability before you even start production.
