Overview

StoryboardHero takes a brief or an existing script and produces a structured storyboard: generated frames in a chosen visual style, with character consistency held across scenes, editable scripts and frames, PDF export under your own branding, and commenting for client review.

Character consistency is the requirement that makes or breaks a storyboard tool. A board exists to show a client how a film will feel, and a protagonist who becomes a different person in frame four undermines exactly that. Offering hand-drawn frames from a real artist team as a paid add-on is an unusually honest acknowledgement that generation does not cover every pitch.

It is co-founded by Sophie Normand and JC Bougle, at $19, $59 and $199 a month by seat count with a 7-day trial and no card, plus hand-drawn credits at $99 for ten. Premium AI images are capped per tier while basic generation is unlimited, generated frames still read as generated to a discerning client, and 15-plus styles for 2D animation is narrower than it sounds once a house style is fixed.
