AIM Previz vs StoryboardCanvas AI

AIM Previz is a pre-visualization platform for creative work from script planning through screening, with continuity controls to carry choices across shots. Its six modes include an infinite board, script breakdown, storyboard, keyframe, 3D scene staging, and motion generation. Users can lock cast, wardrobe, props, set, and grade. The toolkit describes more than 45 cameras, 21 lenses, and 200 graded look profiles. Outputs include progressive upscaling and named, separated layers for organized PSD export, as well as individual frames, ZIP archives, and professional formats. The maker says its orchestration routes work across 99 generative engines for video, image, audio, and 3D. Generation uses credits per action, and motion rates vary by footage duration and engine; the app shows the rate before a run. It runs on the web and through an API. The Free plan is free and provides 50 credits a month, all rooms and tools, and a seven-day Pro trial with 150 credits. Pro costs $29 a month; Creator $80 a month; Studio $199 a month. Creator seats cost $450 a month.

StoryboardCanvas AI is a web application suite for video, motion picture, television, and film production, connecting 20 apps in one project file. DollyAI acts as an AI director across the suite, while AI Artist creates storyboard images with a style-lock engine. Changing a scene heading can update related breakdowns, schedules, call sheets, and storyboards. The browser drawing app provides more than 450 brushes, and Animate turns storyboard frames into animatics. Screenplay imports include FDX, Fountain, Celtx, PDF, DOCX, RTF, and HTML; exports include PDF, PNG, CSV, MP4, MOV, FDX, Fountain, Movie Magic, Gorilla, XMEML, FCPXML, EDL, and OpenTimelineIO. Collaboration features include real-time work, comments, review sessions, role permissions, team chat, and unlimited free read-only viewers. Production apps are designed for tablets, laptops, or desktops; smaller phone screens direct users to a larger device. The Free plan costs nothing with one seat, no AI credits, and 2 GB storage. Hobbyist costs £19 a month, billed first month £9.50 then £19/mo. Paid plans provide increasing seats, credits, storage, exports, support, and API options.
