Greenlight Coverage is an AI-powered screenplay coverage platform built for screenwriters, producers, and development teams. It delivers professional-grade script feedback, the kind traditionally produced by studio readers and development executives, in minutes rather than days.
The platform is used by more than 40,000 writers, producers, and filmmakers worldwide, including independent screenwriters preparing scripts for submission, producers evaluating project slates, and development teams at production companies and entertainment studios.
What is Screenplay Coverage?
Screenplay coverage is a professional script evaluation report used by producers, studios, financiers, and development executives to assess a screenplay’s strengths, weaknesses, commercial potential, and production readiness. It is the standard evaluation document in the film and television industry. Greenlight Coverage automates this process using AI trained specifically on screenplay structure, not generic text.

Our Story
Greenlight Coverage was founded by Jack Zhang, CEO of Greenlight Essentials Inc., out of the University of Waterloo in Waterloo, Ontario, Canada.
The platform originated as a research project exploring how technology could better model audience demand and story structure. It has since grown into a full development suite used by emerging writers, independent filmmakers, working producers, and executives at some of the world’s largest entertainment companies.
The company has spent years refining proprietary screenplay analysis technology designed specifically for scripts. The core goal has remained consistent: make high-quality story feedback faster, more accessible, and more actionable without replacing the writer’s creative voice.

Greenlight Coverage is built on the position that AI should support creativity, not replace it. The platform gives writers and producers a faster, more consistent layer of analytical insight to assist them in identifying what is working, what needs development, and how a project may be positioned in the marketplace. The creative decision-making remains with the writer.
Greenlight Coverage’s mission is to make professional-quality screenplay analysis accessible to every storyteller and development team — from a writer working on their first feature to a producer managing a full project slate.
