Product basics
What is StarVeil AI?
StarVeil AI is an AI-powered webtoon creation tool. Enter a story outline or novel text, and AI helps plan storyboards, design characters, render images, and assemble publish-ready vertical comics in multiple styles.
Do I need drawing or design experience?
No. StarVeil AI is built so people without drawing skills can still create professional comic episodes. You bring the story idea; AI handles character design, panel composition, rendering, and speech bubble layout. Artists can still edit scripts for more control.
What is a webtoon, and how is it different from traditional comics?
A webtoon is a vertical-scroll comic format designed for mobile reading. Instead of turning pages, readers scroll through panels from top to bottom, which makes pacing smoother on phones.
Who is StarVeil AI for?
It is for anyone with a story to tell: novel authors, independent creators, social media teams, game and film concept teams, educators, and anyone who wants to turn imagined scenes into comics.
Technology and features
How does AI character consistency work?
The character library stores each character’s visual traits as structured descriptions and reference images. During generation, those traits guide the image workflow so the same character stays consistent across scenes and episodes.
What comic styles are supported?
We currently support Japanese manga, Chinese manhua, Western comics, realistic, ink wash, and more. You can also guide a specific visual direction with your own description.
How does smart storyboarding work?
AI analyzes your story text, identifies scene changes, dialogue rhythm, and emotional beats, then plans shots, character placement, speech bubble order, and reading pace. The generated storyboard script remains editable.
What is the highest supported resolution?
Exports support up to 4K width (4096px). The default 2K output works for most publishing platforms, while 4K is useful for print or large-screen display.
How long can one generated comic episode be?
A single generated episode usually contains 8-12 panels. You can create multi-episode series where each episode is generated separately while sharing the same character library.
Pricing and credits
What are the free plan limits?
The free plan includes 50 credits so you can try short-comic generation. Core features such as character consistency, smart storyboarding, multiple styles, HD export, and commercial-use rights are included.
How many credits does one comic generation cost?
The first batch for a new comic currently costs 75 credits. Continuing with the next scene costs about 25 credits, regenerating a panel or scene also costs about 25 credits, and creating a character reference image costs about 20 credits.
What happens when I run out of credits?
Choose a membership that fits your creation rhythm first; when you temporarily need more, buy a one-time credit pack billed in USD starting at $6. Credit packs do not auto-renew and remain in your account until used.
Will I be charged automatically?
Memberships can be managed or canceled anytime through the Stripe Billing Portal in your profile. Credit packs are one-time purchases and do not auto-renew.
Which payment methods are supported?
Payments are securely processed by Stripe and support major credit and debit cards including Visa, Mastercard, American Express, and Discover. Apple Pay and Google Pay are available in some regions.
Rights and usage
Who owns the generated comics?
You keep ownership of your original story content and project materials. AI-generated visuals may be used for personal and commercial purposes, but you should review outputs to avoid third-party rights issues.
Can I commercially publish generated comics?
Yes. All plans, including the free plan, include commercial-use rights. You can publish generated comics on comic platforms, social media, your own site, or in commercial projects.
Is my story data safe?
We care about data safety. Your story text and generated works are stored in cloud services to provide the creation workflow. You can export or delete your content when needed.
Other questions
Can I write stories in English?
Yes. StarVeil AI supports both Chinese and English story input, and AI can generate comic text in the corresponding language.
How fast is generation?
A single episode with 8-12 panels usually takes 2-5 minutes, depending on visual complexity and server load. Paid plans receive higher priority.
