88stacks
88stacks combines scripting, storyboarding, animation, audio, repurposing, and distribution in a subscription studio system.
About 88stacks
88stacks puts a studio production pipeline in one subscription platform. A team can begin with an idea, shape it into a structured script, generate a storyboard and animatic, create reusable characters and environments, and move on to animation, voice, sound, music, and publishing. It suits creators and studios that want fewer handoffs among separate writing, design, editing, audio, and distribution tools. The multiplication workflow can reshape one episode into short videos, podcast audio, comics, books, newsletters, activity materials, and merchandise designs for several channels. Plan choice changes the day-to-day workflow. Creator and Starter depend on manual publishing or distribution, whereas Pro Studio and Scale Studio add automation. Monthly prices range from $99 to $4,999, so buyers should weigh episode volume, rendering demand, collaboration needs, and publishing automation before subscribing. The creation engine also covers tone control, dialogue polish, arc structure, shot planning, camera direction, timing, auto-animatics, image and asset creation, 2D and 3D hybrid animation, dialogue timing, sound design, music layering, and lip-sync. Distribution targets named on the site span social video, connected TV, podcasts, RSS, comics, books, newsletters, activity books, print-on-demand products, licensing, and syndication. For recurring production, the practical appeal is keeping script, assets, animation, audio, derivatives, and release work inside a connected system. The tradeoff is that capabilities vary sharply by tier: the entry plan caps episode volume and rendering, the middle plan still uses manual distribution, and the automated studio tiers carry much higher monthly prices.

Features
Episode production
Develop a production-ready episode from one idea by moving through story structure, a locked script, storyboard, animatic, reusable characters and environments, animation, synchronized voices, sound effects, and music in one connected workflow.
Content repurposing
Repurpose a finished episode into short social videos, podcast audio, comics, activity books, newsletters, and merchandise designs so one production can supply several formats without rebuilding every asset from scratch.
Multi-channel publishing
Prepare and distribute recurring content across social video, connected TV, podcast, RSS, written, and visual channels, using manual distribution on lower tiers or automated publishing on the studio plans.
Recurring studio workflows
Maintain an episodic production schedule by reusing characters, environments, props, style rules, and orchestration steps, which reduces repeated setup work when a team creates related releases on a regular cadence.
Pros
- One platform covers the workflow from structured script through animation, audio, and distribution.
- Reusable characters, environments, and props can reduce repeated asset work across episodes.
- Higher tiers automate publishing and content multiplication across many listed channels.
Cons
- The $99 Creator plan limits production to four episodes per month and offers limited rendering and exports.
- Creator and Starter users must handle publishing or distribution manually, adding operational work.
- Pro Studio costs $1,499 per month and Scale Studio costs $4,999 per month, a substantial commitment for small teams.
