A small but satisfying improvement!

When you navigate from the grid to the frame editor or animatic view and then head back, Boords now remembers where you were. No more scrolling back down to find your place.

We've tidied up the animatic timeline and made a few changes to how things are laid out.

The biggest difference: the button is now much more visible, sitting clearly in the timeline where you'd expect to find it.

Same as before - just a lot easier to spot.

You can now share an animatic without leaving the animatic tool.

Previously, sharing meant heading back to the storyboard view to grab the link. Now there's a dedicated button inside the animatic tool. Manage sharing settings, copy your link, and get right back to what you were doing.

You can now copy a direct link to any comment and share it with your team.

Click the ⋮ menu on a comment and select . Anyone who follows that link will land in the same view - storyboard, editor, or shareable - with that comment highlighted so it's easy to spot.

No more "see my note on frame 2" messages. Just share the link and everyone lands exactly where they need to be.

Keep your team aligned on where each storyboard is in the workflow, from Draft to Approved.

Every storyboard version now has a clear status, visible in the Project Dashboard, Edit View and on shareable links.

✅

See whether a storyboard is Draft, In Progress, Review Needed, Changes Required or Approved.

✅

View storyboards grouped by status and drag them between columns to reflect progress. Status updates automatically when a storyboard is moved.

✅

Only team members can change statuses, keeping workflow management in your control.

✅

Every status change is recorded in the activity panel, so you can see who updated a storyboard and when.

✅

Clients and other guests can see the current status on shared storyboards, helping them stay informed.

Keep your projects moving smoothly from first draft to final approval with everyone on the same page.

Now you can take an existing storyboard frame and give it a fresh new look.

Open the image generator and select .

Boords will keep your scene as it is - layout, characters, poses - while transforming the image into the style you choose.

Try shifting styles to test out a new tone, or explore multiple styles for client options.

Image restyles are powered by Nano Banana Pro to apply different styles while keeping your scene intact. You can choose between for quick results or for more detailed images.

A quick, flexible way to reimagine your frames without rebuilding them from scratch!

The Activity Log is now clearer, faster and more helpful for tracking what’s happening across your team.

✅

See a streamlined history of actions with less noise and clearer summaries.

✅

The feed stays up to date as you work, refreshing in the background.

Jump straight to the relevant storyboard or frame, with guest actions clearly labelled by their display name.

Track changes across your team with more clarity and less digging. Everything you need is now right at your fingertips!

You can now add multiple consistent characters to your Boords storyboards! Place up to 10 characters in a frame, position them how you like, and keep their look consistent across every scene.

Build a custom character library in the new Playground by uploading reference images or designing your own characters. Reuse them across projects, tweak poses, outfits, or expressions, and even change art styles while keeping the core character the same.

✅

Add up to 10 characters per frame, with full control over how they interact and where they appear.

✅

Create, save, and reuse characters across projects, with variations in pose, expression, outfit, or style.

✅

✅

Reframe scenes into wide shots, close-ups, or anything in between while maintaining character consistency.

Character libraries are shared with your whole team, ensuring consistency across every project.

You can now use your own images as references when generating Similar Images with Boords!

Until now, you could only use AI-generated images as references, but now, any image you upload can help guide the results.

This makes it much easier to personalise your storyboards, maintain visual consistency, and get the exact look you're after.

✅

Generate Similar Images from any image you’ve uploaded, not just those created with Boords AI.

✅

Use your own characters, assets, or sketches to guide the AI in the right direction.

Mix and match image uploads and AI-generated images to explore different directions and styles.

This update makes the Similar Image feature more powerful, more flexible, and much more personal, especially when working with existing visual styles or brand assets.
