What is an AI treatment generator?

A treatment is the document that sells a film or TV project before the script exists: a few present-tense pages that tell the whole story, introduce the characters, and set the tone, sitting between a one-line logline and a full screenplay. Producers and commissioners read treatments to decide whether the idea is worth a script, which makes the treatment one of the highest-leverage documents a filmmaker writes, and one of the easiest to stall on.

An AI treatment generator takes the first pass off your hands. Describe the premise, the genre, and the format, and Storyflow lays out the treatment as cards on an infinite canvas: a logline, a synopsis, the principal characters, the tone, and the act-by-act story. It is not a locked template. Every section is a real canvas card, so you can rewrite the synopsis, drag the act breakdown, deepen a character, and cut what does not sell the story.

That is the difference from a static treatment template: the treatment is the starting point, not the only deliverable. Ask the AI to sharpen the tone or expand the second act, then turn the story into a beat sheet, a storyboard, or a pitch deck on the same canvas. Your treatment becomes the pitch instead of a document that gets buried in a folder.

HOW IT WORKS

Generate a treatment with AI in four steps.

You bring the project. The AI drafts the structure, so your attention stays on the story.

01

Open a free canvas

Start in the browser with a free account. There is no app to install and no card to enter, just an empty canvas ready for your project.

02

Describe your project

A logline plus the format is enough: a feature, a series, a documentary, or a commercial, with the genre and the tone you are going for.

03

AI drafts the treatment

The AI lays out the treatment as cards on the canvas: logline, synopsis, characters, tone, and the act-by-act story, arranged so the whole pitch reads at a glance.

04

Rewrite, expand, turn into a pitch

Sharpen any section, ask the AI to deepen an act, then turn the treatment into a beat sheet, a storyboard, or a pitch deck, share a view-only link, or export as image or PDF.

A treatment generator that thinks past the document.

Most treatments die in a folder. These ones become beat sheets, storyboards, and pitch decks.

A treatment from a single logline

From one premise to a full pitch

The AI drafts the logline, synopsis, characters, and act breakdown as cards on the canvas. See the whole pitch first, then sharpen the section that is not landing yet.

Tighten the story into beats

Treatments become beat sheets

Take the act-by-act story and ask the AI to break it into beats, the turning points underneath, on the same canvas the treatment came from.

From treatment to screen

Carry the story into a storyboard

A treatment for a film or a spot becomes a storyboard and a shot list. The AI builds the next board from the story you set, not from a generic template.

Room for tone, references, and rewrites

An infinite canvas for the whole pitch

Treatments carry tone references, alternate versions, and notes from every read. With an infinite canvas and no object cap on the free plan, nothing gets cut for space.

BUILT FOR THE PITCH

Made for the way filmmakers actually pitch.

Draft the sections, rearrange them by dragging, and keep the whole story visible while you sharpen it.

Treatment sections arranged as movable cards by an AI generator

Sections you can rewrite, move, and split

Treatment cards that behave like a pitch board

The pitch as movable cards: Logline, synopsis, characters, and acts are cards on the canvas, so the shape of the pitch is visible without a rigid document locking it down.

Drag to restructure: Reorder the acts or move a character beat earlier and the treatment reshapes with your instinct. Restructuring is a drag, not a rewrite.

Expand any section: Ask the AI to deepen the second act or flesh out a character while the rest of the treatment stays exactly as you set it.

AI treatment generator building on a character profile for context

Context from the board you are working on

AI that builds on your premise and tone

Reads your active board: The AI uses what is already on the canvas, so the treatment connects to the references, characters, and tone you have started gathering.

@-mention your sources: Bring in up to one Blueprint and three documents as context: a character profile, a research doc, or a structure framework the treatment should follow.

Re-prompt to refocus: Ask for a darker tone, a tighter logline, or a more commercial angle. The AI reworks the treatment while keeping your edits.

AI treatment with tone references, stills, and notes on the canvas

More than text on every section

Tone references, stills, and notes beside the pitch

Drop in anything: Tone references, stills, video, GIFs, PDFs, and links attach to the canvas next to the sections they support. A treatment with a lookbook built in.

Frame grabs from video: Capture reference stills from YouTube and Vimeo straight onto the canvas when a film sets the tone better than a paragraph.

Notes where you need them: Longer thinking lives as documents on the same canvas, so the treatment stays scannable and the depth stays one click away.

A treatment turned into a storyboard and pitch deck on one canvas

The treatment is step one, not the end

From treatment to finished production

Carry the story into real boards: Turn the treatment into beat sheets, storyboards, shot lists, and pitch decks on the same canvas, with the AI carrying the story over.

Share the pitch: Invite collaborators free, or send a view-only link so a producer or commissioner can read the treatment without an account.

Export as image or PDF: Need the treatment in a submission or a deck? Export it as a clean image or PDF in one step.

WHO IT IS FOR

Who generates treatments with AI?

Anyone who has to pitch a story before they shoot it.

Filmmakers and directors

Draft a feature or short treatment, pressure-test the act structure on the canvas, then carry the story into a storyboard and a shot list on the same board.

Screenwriters

Turn a premise into a treatment that sells the story, then expand it into a beat sheet and scenes before opening the script.

Documentary makers

Lay out the world, characters, and arc of a documentary as a treatment, with research and footage references pinned beside the sections they support.

Producers pitching

Build a clean, on-tone treatment to take into the room or attach to a deck, and update it live as the project develops. Free, with no time limit.

Commercial and branded creatives

Draft a treatment for a spot or campaign, attach the tone references, and turn the approved direction into a storyboard without switching tools.

COMPARED

How Storyflow compares to other treatment tools.

Plenty of tools give you a treatment template. The question is what happens to the treatment afterwards.

What creators are saying

Join early creators getting structured workspaces and AI that remembers their projects

Storyflow has sped up my workflow by at least 3x, which means more flow state and more projects I can actually ship. It truly changed the way me and my team create.

One prompt gets me a structured board. But the tactics are my favorite. I run my YouTube scripts through them and my intros and retention got better. It's amazing.

I used to juggle five apps to plan a project. Now I describe what I am making and get boards, lists, and a schedule. All in one place.

AI treatment questions, answered.

Everything people ask about generating treatments with AI in Storyflow.

An AI treatment generator turns a premise you describe into the sections of a film or TV treatment: a logline, a synopsis, the characters, the tone, and the act-by-act story, drafted for you instead of written from a blank page. In Storyflow the AI lays those out as cards on an infinite canvas, so the treatment stays fully editable and can grow into a beat sheet, a storyboard, or a pitch deck.
