Working with Nisaba#
Meet your AI writing partner — who she is, how to talk to her, and everything she can do to help you finish your screenplay.
Nisaba is the AI collaborator inside Nabu. She shapes your structure, keeps track of characters and continuity, watches your arcs and threads, and reads your script like a development executive when you ask. She can also draft scenes and revise prose when you're ready.
She appears as a chat panel on desktop and a floating button on mobile. Ask her a question, ask her to write something, or think out loud.

A few things worth knowing#
- Small edits arrive as suggestions; bigger changes happen immediately. Tweaks to scene text appear as suggestions you accept or dismiss. When you ask her to write or rewrite a scene, change a character, or reorder or remove scenes, she does it straight away — undo with
Cmd+Zor restore from History. - She adapts to your story. Once you pick a genre, her voice shifts to match — a thriller and a tender drama get different instincts.
