Dawnwood

What is Dawnwood

Dawnwood is an AI studio for short-drama series, not a video generator. It turns a premise into a delivered 10-episode vertical drama series, including season bible, scripts, consistent cast, renders, cut and captions, with quality control on every take. The studio itself — bible co-writing, consistent cast, orchestration and QC — costs nothing extra. Dawnwood is designed for serialized short drama, with output in 9:16 vertical masters and support for 16 languages with lip-synced dubbing.

Pricing

Dawnwood offers a credit-based system with plans that bundle credits. Sign up and get 500 credits once, good for 30 days, never granted again on any plan. Those credits are enough to write the bible, build your cast, and render your first segment in Super mode with no plan at all. Monthly plans put credits in your account below the pack rate and carry them forward month to month while the plan is active, plus worlds and queue priority.

Rendering costs: 5 credits per output second (2.0 standard 6 credits · Super mode 10 credits; signup credits render any mode at the base rate). Failed jobs are never charged. Every shot group includes one take — trim, remix, and re-cut for free. Any further take bills again per second, whether ordered or required by quality check. Finished episodes can be released in other languages for 80 credits per episode per language.

Plans:

• Free: $0, 500 credits one-time trial (30 days), 1 active world, top up any time.
