What is Drawstory?

Drawstory is an AI storyboarding tool for directors, producers, agencies and production teams. You upload a script as a PDF, paste text or drag in images, and an AI assistant director identifies shots, characters, locations and camera angles, then produces a shot list and storyboard frames. Characters stay consistent across frames, and you can upload your own characters or choose from several styles including storyboard, comic, manga and storybook. A shot editor lets you change camera angle or composition, and an object remover takes out elements you do not want. Teams can share boards, comment and give editorial access to others. Scripts of up to 100 pages are supported. A free plan includes 10 image generations. Paid plans run from $16 to $150 per month depending on how many image generations you need, and team or enterprise terms are available on request.
