# Tab Story > Tab Story is AI comic and webtoon software for people who already have a story. You lock a cast, pick a style, and generate chapter by chapter — Classic Wizard for a fast first book, Make Studio for chat-driven revisions, plus tools for portraits, camera angles, line art, and regional edits. For the generated complete reference, see [llms-full.txt](https://www.tabstory.net/llms-full.txt). ## Verified facts - The working comic is the source of truth: story text, characters, style, and generated panels live on one project instead of a pile of disconnected chat images. - New accounts receive a signup credit grant. The live amount is shown after sign-in and can change independently of marketing copy. - Live checkout sells credit packs in USD through Stripe. Pack sizes and bonuses are server-driven; /pricing is authoritative. - Most public AI tools include a daily free quota, then charge credits. Infinite Canvas opens after sign-in; each generate uses credits. - Projects stay private until the owner publishes or shares them. Sharing does not grant edit access to the original project. - Tab Story is a web app. It is not a replacement for Clip Studio, Photoshop, or a studio inking pipeline. - AI still misses faces, outfits, and panel continuity. The product is built so creators can regenerate, edit, and keep the story they wrote. - The closest product competitors are story-to-manga studios (MangaFlow, Anifusion, TaleAtelier), not general image boards. Midjourney and Canva compete for search traffic, not for the same job. ## Core pages - [Homepage](https://www.tabstory.net/): AI comic and webtoon overview - [Features](https://www.tabstory.net/features): Product capability guides - [Alternatives](https://www.tabstory.net/alternatives): Honest competitor comparisons - [AI Tools](https://www.tabstory.net/tools): Working public tools with daily free quota - [Character Library](https://www.tabstory.net/character-library): Public reusable characters - [Pricing](https://www.tabstory.net/pricing): Live credit packs - [Blog](https://www.tabstory.net/blog): Craft and product guides - [Create](https://www.tabstory.net/create): Start a comic from text ## Product features - [From a Chapter in Your Notes to a Book You Can Hold](https://www.tabstory.net/features/ai-comic-creator): Most of us already have the scene. What we do not have is forty hours to draw it. Tab Story starts from the chapter you pasted, not from a blank prompt box. - [The Same Face on Page Twelve](https://www.tabstory.net/features/character-consistency): Readers forgive a stiff pose. They do not forgive a heroine who borrows a stranger’s jawline every other page. - [A Board You Can Argue With](https://www.tabstory.net/features/ai-storyboard): A pretty splash is not a comic. A comic is the breath between two panels — the glance before the punchline, the silent gutter before the door opens. - [Throw Away One Page, Keep the Chapter](https://www.tabstory.net/features/panel-generation): The unit of a comic is not “the book.” It is the page that almost worked. Tab Story bills and regenerates at that unit. - [One Art Language for the Whole Book](https://www.tabstory.net/features/comic-art-styles): A series has a face. If episode three looks like a different artist woke up in the file, readers bounce — even when the plot is good. - [Fix the Hand. Keep the Splash.](https://www.tabstory.net/features/infinite-canvas): The page is good except the fingers, the storefront sign, or the extra face in the crowd. You do not owe the model a whole new splash. - [Borrow a Face, Write Your Own Night](https://www.tabstory.net/features/character-library): Picking a cast is half the joy of a new book. The library is a shelf of looks you can walk around before you spend a single panel credit. - [The Workbench Around the Chapter](https://www.tabstory.net/features/ai-comic-tools): A chapter is the main stage. These tools are the side rooms: turn the camera, pull a city into a plate, clean a sketch, cut a spread. - [Five Seconds for the Page That Slaps](https://www.tabstory.net/features/comic-shorts): Feeds do not wait for chapter six. They wait for the one frame that moves — the coat, the rain, the door. - [Show the Chapter. Hide the Draft.](https://www.tabstory.net/features/share-and-explore): Ugly first pages are sacred. They should not appear in a stranger’s feed because a generator was feeling helpful. ## Honest comparisons - [Tab Story vs MangaFlow: Two Ways to Turn a Story Into Manga](https://www.tabstory.net/alternatives/mangaflow): Choose MangaFlow when you want Story → Cast → Layout → Draw → Export as one finished manga, with locked reference sheets, six genre styles, and a print-ready PDF.

Choose Tab Story when you need AI storyboard and a cast that survives panel five. - [Tab Story and Dashtoon Studio: A Pipeline Worth Studying After It Closed](https://www.tabstory.net/alternatives/dashtoon): Do not choose Dashtoon Studio in 2026 — [dashtoon.com/create](https://dashtoon.com/create) says it shut down on 15 August 2026 and points at Frameo, an AI video / short-drama app, not a comic tool. Study the old Story Mode if you care about product history. Make comics on a tool that still opens. ## Pricing Credit packs are sold in USD through Stripe. Allowances are server-driven.
