Why use Beatra instead of calling model APIs directly

• One account for every model this skill uses — Text to image 10; Image to image 10; Image editing 7 (Qwen Image 3.0, MiniMax H3 Image, Qwen Image 2.0 Fast, Qwen Image 3.0 Pro, GPT Image 2.5 Flare, GPT Image 2.5 Sunburst, GPT Image 2, Wan Image 2.7 Fast, Qwen Image 2.0 Pro, Wan Image 2.7 Pro) (as of 2026-11-14), behind one Beatra sign-in; no keys from individual model providers to manage.
• You decide what gets paid for — Paid renders run only when you ask for that exact render or approve its card, which shows the live credit estimate.
• Direction before rendering — the skill plans, directs, and reviews the work, then renders it on Beatra.
• Files you can verify — every file under skills/ matches the release archive on cdn.beatra.ai byte for byte, checked by SHA-256 before each push.
• Updates you control — no self-updater; update with the tool you installed it with.
• Runs in your agent — Claude Code, Cursor, Codex, Windsurf, Cline, OpenClaw.

What you get

• Plan before rendering — Define each beat, shot size, composition, camera intent, timing, dialogue, and sound before committing to visual frames.
• Generate only decisive frames — Choose one to four shots that need visual alignment, keeping the board focused and reviewable.

Use cases

• Short films and vertical drama — Translate a scene into an ordered shot plan with clear beats, camera choices, timing, and continuity cues.
• Advertising concepts — Map the product message, hook, action, and closing beat into frames that creative and production teams can compare.
• Animation and creative pitches — Establish composition, character placement, locations, and visual rhythm before a larger production begins.

FAQ

What do I need to start?

A script, scene outline, ad brief, or story concept that includes the core action, audience, and intended format.

How many storyboard images can I create?

One to four key frames, drawn as individual storyboard images alongside the full shot list.

Can I use character or location references?

Yes. Provide them in a clear order and say what each one is for; the key frames are drawn from them.

you installed it with — npx skills update ai-storyboard-generator or gh skill update ai-storyboard-generator.
