Focal
Focal is an online video creation software that helps you tell stories using AI. You can bring your own script, and Focal will adapt it faithfully. If you just have an idea, Focal can help you turn it into a script first. You can edit your script with commands like "make this conversation shorter" or "replace this with a series of over-the-shoulder shots aimed at the person who is speaking." Focal supports traditional timeline editing tools to polish your work and provides features of the latest models, like video extension and frame interpolation. Focal integrates best-in-class models for videos, images, and voices, including Minimax, Kling, Luma, Runway, Flux1.1 Pro, Flux Dev, Flux Schnell, and ElevenLabs. You can generate and re-use characters and locations in your projects. Anything you make on a paid plan is yours to use commercially, while the free plan is for personal use only.

StoryBirdie
StoryBirdie turns a screenplay into a shot list and storyboard, so directors plan coverage in minutes rather than across an afternoon.
Upload a script as Fountain, PDF or DOCX. StoryBirdie flags continuity, logic and formatting problems against the passage that caused them, then breaks the script into shots — one row per beat, carrying shot size, angle, camera movement, blocking, action, and the characters and props in frame. Every row links back to its lines of script, so a rewrite shows which shots it touched. Storyboard frames render from that same list and hold character consistency, the 180-degree rule and blocking across a sequence.
You refine rather than build: merge shots, split a beat, reorder, or regenerate one frame from a plain-language note.
Export the shot list to XLSX, CSV or Markdown, the boards to print-ready PDF, or a generation brief formatted for Veo, Sora, Runway and Kling.
Free to start with 20 credits. Priced per plan, not per user.
