Previs Pro is a 3D previsualisation tool for filmmakers planning virtual sets, character placement, camera angles, and editorial timelines. Its simulation follows real-world optics rather than working as a flat drawing canvas. It imports screenplay files from Final Draft, Fountain, Open Screenplay Format, Fade In, and Celtx. Exports include PDF, JPEG, PNG, MP4, and NLE projects; the NLE export is a Final Cut Pro 7 XML project compatible with Adobe Premiere Pro and DaVinci Resolve. The free plan allows one animatic per project and watermarked exports. Paid plans include unlimited projects, scenes, shots, and animatics, with AI generation charged by use: Annual is 9.99 USD per year, billed $119.99/year; Monthly is 39.99 USD per month; Lifetime is 359.99 USD per once. A purchase works on up to five personal devices using the same Apple ID. Previs Pro runs on iOS and macOS, but has no Windows or Android version or roadmap. The minimum memory listed is 4 GB, with 6 GB or more recommended for comfortable use.
