StoryboardCanvas AI vs StoryboardHero

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.
