What is a Zapter?

Your cast.Your world.Your story.

That’s a Zapter — a complete short-form story you direct and AI brings to life. A first episode, a new cliffhanger, a reason to come back. Keep your cast and world together, and let one story grow into a recurring show.

Make the show you wish existed.

The character you’ve been imagining. The anime, comedy or fantasy series you wish you could watch. A world your audience can return to. Start with one episode, and see where your story goes.

Start with Storymode

  • Choose your visual style.
  • Pick a story template or start from scratch.
  • Make it your own with Storymode—build your characters, locations, and script.

Direct each Zapter

Turn your story into episode beats. Write the dialogue, frame the shots and refine each take, with your cast and locations close at hand.

Finish your story

Cut your takes, add voices and music, and export a finished vertical episode. Share it with your audience, then come back for part two.

From yourimagination.

To thescreen.

The engine room

Every frontier lab. One director’s chair.

Zapters brings image, video, writing, music, voice, and mastering into one creative workflow. You direct the story; the studio handles the models.

About the private beta

A few good questions.

What is a microdrama — and what is a Zapter?

A microdrama is a short, story-led episode with characters, stakes and a reason to keep watching. A Zapter is the short-form story you make in the studio. It can stand alone or become the next episode in your series.

Do I need a finished script to start?

No. Start with an idea and develop your premise, cast and world before moving into episode scripts and shot direction. You decide what becomes part of your story.

Can I keep the same cast across episodes?

Yes. Your project keeps its cast, character design sheets, locations and story bible together, so you can build each episode around the same world. Review and refine generated takes as you go.

Which formats will Zapters support?

Zapter is a format-independent idea, but the initial release is focused on vertical viewing. Other formats can come later as the studio grows.

What styles can I create in?

Zapters is animation-first. At launch you pick your look from a set of animation styles — modern anime, 3D animation, western animation, whacky cartoon and painterly 3D — with more added over time.

Where will I be able to create?

The initial release is an iOS app. More platforms can follow as the studio grows.

Can I share what I make?

Yes. Every finished Zapter exports as a vertical video, ready to post to your feed.

Are my stories private?

Your content is private to your account by default. Generation sends relevant prompts and media to AI providers so they can create your results. You choose what to export and share. See our Privacy Policy for details.
