FAQ

Questions we hear

Is ekonte an AI video generator?

No. Generators make footage; ekonte makes the plan. It turns a reference video into a storyboard with hooks, beats, narration, and shot notes. You film that board yourself, hand it to an editor, or feed it to any generator. It's the pre-production step every generator skips.

What does "ekonte" mean?

It's the Japanese word for a production storyboard, the document every anime and film shoot is planned on. Japanese story craft runs through the whole tool: every board follows a four-beat arc (setup, build-up, twist, payoff) so your video tells a story instead of listing features.

How is this different from a UGC marketplace or an agency?

Marketplace videos are cheap because you pay before you know what you'll get. Agencies show you quality after a retainer and weeks of lead time. A board flips the order: you see the whole video, cut by cut, before anything is filmed.

Do I have to film it myself?

The board works with whoever presses record: you, a teammate, a presenter, an editor, or an AI tool. That's the point of a storyboard. It's a document anyone can execute.

What does it cost?

Free during the private beta. Pricing comes later, and waitlist members hear first.

Can ekonte just make the videos for me?

Yes. The ekonte studio plans the series, writes every board, and produces the videos end to end. Book a call and we'll come back with a point of view on your product.
