About TabStory
TabStory converts text into comics without drawing skills. You paste a novel, script or story outline, choose an art style and format, and the AI analyzes the plot, identifies characters and scenes, generates storyboard scripts and creates artwork for each page. Styles include manga, webtoon, American comics and ink wash, with custom styles possible, and character recognition keeps characters looking consistent across scenes and pages.
Pages can be edited, with compositions adjusted and dialogue changed, and finished work can be exported as high-resolution images or shared online. Output formats cover webtoon, traditional page and storyboard layouts optimized for phones, tablets and desktops. A Character Library and a gallery of trending works are on the site. Pricing uses credit packs with no monthly fee, starting at $10 for 1,400 credits, and credits never expire. Starting is free with no credit card.
