Zhura (/ˈzɜːrə/ ZUR-ə) is a free, web-based screenwriting software application for writing and formatting screenplays to the film industry standard, as well as other formats. Zhura allows users to collaborate on scripts in public or private groups and uses Creative Commons Licensing for all work in the public workspace.[1]
On March 29, 2010, Zhura announced its merger with Scripped. Scripped's CEO, Sunil Rajaraman, remains the company's Chief Executive Officer (CEO) as of 2022.[2] The Zhura CEO was Eric MacDonald, a former Cascade Communications engineer.[3] Scripped later closed on April 1, 2015 after a catastrophic, irrecoverable data loss.[4]
