The storyboard maker with
room for the whole sequence.

Break the script into scenes, then each scene into shots. Give every shot one frame showing the framing and the action, and write the shot size, camera move and any dialogue or voiceover under it. Put the frames in order, read the sequence for gaps and repeats, and share it for notes before the shoot. In Storyflow the AI does the first pass from a pasted script, laying out one frame per shot on the canvas, and you redraw, reorder and annotate from there.

Four things: the picture, the shot size and angle, the action or camera move, and the sound, meaning the dialogue, voiceover or music cue that plays over it. Add a shot number so the frame maps to the shot list, and a duration if timing matters, as it does for ads. In Storyflow each frame is a card on the canvas, so the notes sit under the image and a reference photo can sit beside it without crowding the panel.

One per shot, not one per second. A 30-second ad usually needs six to twelve frames, a three-minute brand film twenty to forty, and a short film one per planned setup. Board every shot that involves a move, a stunt, an effect or a product, and skip frames for simple coverage the crew already understands. Storyflow has no frame limit, so a long sequence stays on one board instead of splitting across pages.

Yes. Most storyboards for ads, YouTube and corporate video are made from photos, stills, simple shapes and written shot notes rather than drawings. In Storyflow you can ask the AI to lay out the frames from your script, drop in reference photos or YouTube and Vimeo stills, or, on Pro and Max, generate images for frames with the AI. If you do want to sketch, the pen tool draws straight onto the canvas.

A storyboard maker helps you plan a video, film, or ad shot by shot, laying out each frame in order so you can see the sequence before you shoot. Storyflow does this on an infinite canvas where every frame is a real card you can move, edit, and annotate, rather than a fixed grid on a page.

Not during early access. Storyflow is paid-only right now, with Plus starting at $7.99 a month billed annually ($9.99 month-to-month) for unlimited boards, AI usage to generate and expand frames, unlimited file uploads, and view-only sharing. A free plan is planned before the end of 2026, and anyone a paid member invites to a board joins free today.

This is the broad storyboard maker: the full workflow of generating, arranging, noting, sharing, and exporting a board. If you mainly want to generate frames from a script or prompt, the AI storyboard generator focuses on that step, and the free storyboard maker page covers what is coming when the free plan launches.

Both. You can start from a blank canvas and place, order, and annotate frames entirely by hand. The AI is there when you want it, to generate a first sequence from a script or to board a scene you point it at, but the storyboard is always yours to reshape.

Yes. Attach images, PDFs, video, GIFs, and links to any frame, and grab stills straight from YouTube and Vimeo onto the canvas. Location photos, lookbooks, and reference shots live beside the frames they support instead of behind a link.

Yes, and that is the point of boarding in Storyflow. Ask the AI to turn the board into a shot list or a production plan and it builds the new board on the same canvas from the frames you laid out. The storyboard becomes the plan instead of a screenshot you set aside.

Yes. The AI reads your active board, so frames and notes already on the canvas shape what it generates. You can also attach up to five documents and three boards, such as a script or a creative brief, for it to work from.

Yes. Share a view-only link so a director, client, or teacher can review the full board in their browser without an account, invite collaborators to build it with you, or export the storyboard as a high-quality image or PDF for decks and call sheets.
