StoryboardCanvas AI is a web application suite for video, motion picture, TV, and film production. Its 20 connected apps share a project file, and its DollyAI assistant is described as an AI director available across the suite. The AI Artist creates storyboard images with a style-lock engine. A change to a scene heading can update dependent production documents such as the breakdown, schedule, call sheet, and storyboard. For drawing and motion planning, the suite includes a browser based drawing app with more than 450 brushes and an Animate app that turns storyboard frames into an animatic. Screenplay imports include FDX, Fountain, Celtx, PDF, DOCX, RTF, and HTML; animatics can be handed off in formats for Premiere, DaVinci, and Final Cut Pro X. Teams can collaborate in real time, leave comments, hold review sessions, use role based permissions and team chat, and invite unlimited free read only viewers. The maker lists plans from Free through Enterprise, with paid plans starting at £19/mo. Free includes all 20 apps and 2 GB of cloud storage, but no monthly AI credits. Apps are designed for tablets, laptops, or desktops; smaller phone screens direct users to a larger device. StoryboardCanvas AI is based in the United Kingdom.
