Genèse

A platform for TF1's literary team, handling everything from receiving to distributing all their scripts

Genèse dashboard

Script management for TF1’s literary team that replaces spreadsheets with a focused, collaborative app. Built after shadowing the team, Genèse turns files into structured scenarios in seconds with automatic metadata extraction and an email-to-Genèse capture flow.

It offers Kanban and table views with fast search, versioned comments, and role-based access for producers, readers, editors, and admins. Same stack as Cinetwork for easy deployment and upkeep. From a five-week PoC, it moved into daily use and frees several hours each week.
