    Pitch The Script. Without The Exposure.

    CREATORSEAL™ creates documented proof that your script, treatment, pitch deck, or rough cut existed in its exact form — before it went to producers, financiers, collaborators, or festivals.

    Built for filmmakers who have to share early — before the project feels fully protected.

    If You Have Ever Sent Materials And Instantly Wondered What Happens Next, You Already Know The Problem.

    • You share scripts, treatments, and pitch materials before the relationship feels fully established.
    • You want industry access and momentum — but handing materials to people you barely know feels like the most exposed moment in development.
    • You want a clear record of what your version looked like before outside hands, notes, or the industry machine touched it.
    • You want to protect your premise, your structure, and your creative vision — without acting paranoid or damaging relationships before they start.

    Filmmakers consistently describe having to share early as the most vulnerable part of the process — well before any formal protections are in place.

    The tension is real: you need industry access to get your project made, but the industry's culture makes formal protection socially costly to ask for.

    The anxiety is not only about bad actors. It is about version confusion, who-saw-what ambiguity, and having no record of what the materials said before the room got involved.

    The Risky Moment Is Not Getting Greenlit. It Is The Pitch.

    For most filmmakers, the vulnerable moment comes well before production:

    Sending a script to a producer or production company
    Sharing a treatment or one-pager before a pitch meeting
    Circulating a pitch deck to financiers or development executives
    Passing a lookbook, sizzle reel, or concept deck to collaborators
    Sending rough cuts or scene edits before festival submission
    Giving development materials to people outside your inner circle

    That is when the work is still unfinished, unregistered, and hardest to trace.

    CREATORSEAL™ is built for the moment before the handoff.

    The Common Workarounds Leave Gaps.

    These approaches feel like protection, but each one has a real limitation.

    Email timestamps

    A sent email shows a date. It does not document the contents of the attached file, which version it was, or whether that file was modified before or after it was sent.

    Cloud version history

    Platforms change, links break, and version logs are records inside systems you do not control. A cloud timestamp is not portable proof in an industry dispute.

    NDAs alone

    An NDA creates a legal obligation. It does not create a timestamped record of what was in the file you handed over, what version it was, or when that specific version existed.

    Posting or publication dates

    A public posting date shows when something appeared. It says nothing about what existed in the draft before the share — which is usually the real question.

    Verbal trust

    Trusting the people you work with is reasonable. But trust is not documentation. It protects neither party when memory gaps and version confusion come up later.

    Old drafts without timestamps

    Having an old file on your hard drive does not prove when it existed or that the version you shared was the one you created. An independent timestamp ties the proof to a specific moment.

    Filmmakers need something between silence and asking every producer to sign an NDA.

    Send with proof

    Post anywhere. The receipt rides along. Anyone can verify, on any machine, offline.

    Real Film Workflows

    Seal the version before any of these moments.

    Script before producer sharing
    Treatment before pitch meeting
    Pitch deck before financing conversation
    Lookbook before collaboration
    Sizzle reel before circulation
    Rough cut before review or submission

    Ways Filmmakers Can Use CREATORSEAL™

    CREATORSEAL™ documents that a specific file existed in a specific form at a specific time. Here is where that matters most.

    Seal scripts, treatments, pitch decks, lookbooks, and production decks before pitching
    Seal rough cuts, sizzle reels, trailers, and scene edits before sharing with collaborators
    Seal project files or exports before sending to editors, producers, festivals, or financiers
    Seal version milestones during development so there is a record of what existed when
    Seal proof before a producer meeting or pitch session
    Seal creative materials before sending to actors, crew, or contractors

    What You Are Documenting

    • That a specific file existed in a specific form at a specific time
    • A cryptographic fingerprint tied to that exact version
    • A trusted timestamp you can verify independently by Seal ID
    • A clear reference point before notes, revision, or outside circulation
    • A version chain if you seal multiple versions over development

    What CREATORSEAL™ Does Not Do

    • Determine or prove legal ownership
    • Replace copyright registration
    • Replace a lawyer or legal advice
    • Prove no one else had a similar concept independently
    • Upload, host, or store your original file
    • Guarantee any specific legal outcome

    Questions Filmmakers Ask

    No. WGA registration is a separate service that registers scripts with a guild database. CREATORSEAL™ creates an independent proof record showing that a specific version of your file existed at a specific time. It works for scripts, treatments, pitch decks, lookbooks, rough cuts, and any other file you are about to share — not just finished screenplays.

    No. CREATORSEAL™ fingerprints your file locally in your browser using SHA-384 cryptographic hashing. The file itself never leaves your device. Only the resulting fingerprint is used to create the proof record. Your script, treatment, or cut stays completely private.

    No. CREATORSEAL™ does not create legal agreements between parties. It documents that a specific version of your work existed before you shared it. Think of it as a proof record that sits alongside your workflow — not instead of it. Note: asking a producer or studio executive to sign an NDA before reading your materials is widely considered a red flag in the film industry. A timestamped proof record is a much less costly alternative.

    Seal each major version. CREATORSEAL™ lets you build a documented development timeline — first draft, revised draft, pitch-ready version, final version. Each seal is tied to a specific file at a specific time. If the timeline ever matters, you have a chain, not just a snapshot.

    CREATORSEAL™ does not prove no one else developed a similar concept independently. It documents that your specific file — your exact script, treatment, deck, or cut — existed at a specific moment in time. Establishing creative priority is about documenting your version, not eliminating the possibility of parallel development.

    Trust and proof are not opposites. Even with someone you trust completely, having an independent record of what you sent and when is good creative hygiene. It protects both of you from version confusion, memory gaps, and misunderstandings — not just from bad actors.

    No. Drop your file, get a proof record. There is no blockchain jargon, no legal forms, no waiting period. You receive a Seal ID, a timestamped fingerprint, and a verifiable evidence record you can keep alongside your original work.

    Seal The Script Before The Pitch.

    Get your project in front of people. Keep a record of what you sent.
