Final Draft vs KIT Scenarist

Final Draft comes bundled with over 100 screenplay, teleplay and stageplay example templates.

Final Draft is available on Windows and OS X with companion applications available for the iPad and iPhone.

Kit scenarist does not require a constant Internet connection in order to use it.

It includes research tools, a cards tool and enables documentation on everything used in the story.

Kit scenarist can be downloaded and used absolutely free of charge.

The statistics tools can permit you to keep track of how long each character talks along the script, check your action to dialogue times, complete character analysis, and tons more. It also has some real life statistics, like how many scenes you cast will have to speak in, or how long the film in a certain location will be.

The character and set management tools in Kit scenarist extend the flexibility of the software by allowing writers to add descriptions to each character or location, along with some pictures, URLS, or "mind maps". These tools can be especially useful for small crews who need an easy and integrated way to keep track of everything they have.

Supports Windows, Mac, Linux, and even has Android and iOS apps (although the last two are not free). This makes sharing easier in studios and diverse work situations.

Kit scenarist contains support for multiple languages and spell check. This includes some standard languages such as:
English, French, Spanish, Russian, Arabic, and others.

KIT scenarist supports the industry standard .FDX format.
It can both import and export your files as such.

Kit scenarist provides for online collaboration service, under a subscription fee.
