1How this tool boards a script

Toonkit turns a script into cut-by-cut panels that record framing, character placement and mood, and advises writing the camera angle into each scene. Characters are generated first and mentioned with @, region editing changes one part of a panel, and the board goes on into AI animation with no export step; a board export exists, with formats that vary by feature.

What the storyboard comes back as: Image panels

Each panel captures framing, character placement, and the mood of the scene.
