FlyAIgh vs Boords

Collaborative storyboarding and client sign-off with AI frames and animatics

Quick verdict

Boords is a polished storyboarding and client-review tool — script-to-frames, AI stills, character consistency, and animatic previews built for agencies getting sign-off. What it does not do is generate actual video: its animatics are timed slideshows of still frames. FlyAIgh Director runs the same script to storyboard flow but turns each shot into a real video prompt rendered on flagship models. Pick Boords for collaboration, comments, and version-controlled sign-off; pick FlyAIgh when the storyboard needs to become actual footage.

Pricing note

Boords prices a flat per-workspace fee with a user cap and a monthly AI-image allowance, verified on boords.com/pricing in June 2026; annual billing is shown as a discounted monthly rate (e.g. Pro $50/mo billed yearly) and annual totals are inferred, not quoted. Critically, Boords AI output is still frames and timed animatics (MP4 slideshows) — not generated video — so its AI-image allowance is not comparable to FlyAIgh video credits. FlyAIgh has a 25-credit free tier with no card.

FAQ

Does Boords generate video?

No. Boords generates AI still frames and builds timed animatics — MP4 slideshows of those stills with audio and subtitles — but it does not generate actual video footage. FlyAIgh generates real video clips for each shot on flagship models.

Is Boords or FlyAIgh better?

Boords is better when your workflow centers on collaboration and client sign-off on illustrated storyboards — comments, review links, version control, and animatic previews. FlyAIgh is better when the storyboard has to become generated video, or when you want flagship model access and a lower entry price.

Which is cheaper, Boords or FlyAIgh?

FlyAIgh has a 25-credit free tier and paid plans from $11.99/mo. Boords has a free tier capped at 5 boards and 10 AI images; meaningful AI-image volume starts at the $75/mo Pro plan ($50/mo billed annually). For AI generation volume, FlyAIgh is cheaper to start.

Can I use Boords and FlyAIgh together?

Yes, and many teams do. Storyboard and get client sign-off in Boords, then generate the actual shots in FlyAIgh once the board is approved. They cover different phases — review versus production.

Does Boords keep characters consistent?

Yes, across its still frames — Boords detects characters from the script and keeps them consistent frame to frame. FlyAIgh keeps characters consistent across generated video shots as well, using identity references that follow the cast across models.
