9 guided beat pages — 36 questions, every one with its own answer box, including the two pinch points most outlines skip

A beat calculator that places each beat at a chapter number, for novels of 20, 25, 30, 35 or 40 chapters — and shows you exactly how much book sits between your two plot points

Story Foundation: logline, premise, theme, and the Dramatic Question your three acts exist to answer

Character profiles: protagonist at the start and at the end, want against need, antagonist, an ally or confidant who carries the theme, and supporting cast

Worldbuilding: setting and rules, what stands to be won or lost, and how the world closes in through Act 2

Progress ring, questions-answered counter, act-by-act tracking, and a quick-note pad

About this tool

Setup, confrontation, resolution is a description, not a plan. What makes three acts work are the load-bearing points inside them: an inciting incident that makes the ordinary impossible to continue, a first plot point that shuts the door behind your protagonist, two pinch points that show what the opposition can do, a midpoint that changes what the story is about, and a second plot point that removes the last option. This dashboard is built around those nine.

This is an interactive digital tool, not a static PDF. Open the single HTML file in any browser — no install, no account, no internet needed after download. Work through each beat one at a time: what it does, guided questions with space to answer each one, and a mark-complete tracker with act-by-act progress. Everything you type saves automatically in your browser.
