Panel.Studio
What it is
Panel.Studio is a web-based AI animation and storyboarding studio for storytellers, animators, and screenwriters. Users build scenes by placing characters on settings, arranging storyboard frames, and prompting AI to animate selected scenes. Characters can be generated in different art styles or uploaded as references. Settings can be generated or uploaded, with controls for mood, time of day, and camera angle, and locations can be reused across scenes and episodes. Audio Lab supports assigning voices, generating or recording lines, and layering sound effects and music; the site identifies ElevenLabs as a provider. Output can switch between 16:9 widescreen and native 9:16 vertical formats for TikTok, Reels, and Shorts. The free demo supports hand-built panels and screenshots, but excludes AI generation and saving. Plans range from Free to Feature, with paid plans from $7/month. Video editing is marked Coming Soon.
