Melted Crayons TV is a browser-based AI storytelling studio for making comics, graphic novels, storyboards, animated videos, and published story pages. Character references help keep figures visually consistent across panels, clips, and pages, and creators can choose from more than 30 art styles, including anime, watercolor, and cyberpunk. The studio supports per-shot motion direction, character voices, and narration. Finished work can be exported as interactive comic pages, MP4 video, narrated read-alongs, PDF and print, or social cuts. Published stories can use trackable short links and QR codes with click analytics. The free Sketch tier includes 30 monthly credits for image-only use; its 1080p static comic video exports are watermarked, and panel animation is not included. Paid plans start at 9.99 USD per month, with higher tiers listing different credit allowances, video resolutions, voices, and commercial-use terms. Character photo background extraction runs in the browser, and the maker says the photo stays on the device during that step. Account content is retained while the account is active; backups may take up to 30 days to expire after deletion.
