Elser AI helps creators turn ideas into full anime story videos. Just enter an idea, Elser AI could create long-form videos with consistent characters, clear story flow, and cinematic styles, all from a single prompt. In long-form benchmarks, Elser achieves 30%+ higher character consistency than other AI video tools across 180+ scenes. Built for storytellers, animators, and creators who want more than short clips.

Hey Product Hunt! 👋
I'm Phil Liu, CEO & Founder of Elser AI. We built an AI video platform for creating full anime story videos, not short clips or one-off demos.
I previously led content strategy at ByteDance, working with thousands of creators. Their challenge was always the same: great stories, but animation production was too expensive, too slow, and too complex.
🎬 What is Elser AI?
Elser turns any prompt into a complete anime story video with consistent characters from start to finish. Script → storyboard → final video, all in one workflow.
🚀 Why this matters
Most AI video tools excel at short clips and visual experiments. But long-form anime storytelling breaks easily, characters drift, faces change, styles collapse across scenes. We optimized for solving that first.
🔍 Real creator proof
Stable character identity across 180+ scenes
One continuous 30-minute anime video without visual drift
One creator already generated $300K+ revenue from an Elser-made series
Working with streaming platforms on original series production
🧠 What's inside
✨ Character consistency across every scene and episode
📜 Story-to-screen pipeline—script, storyboard, video in one place
⚙️ Built for long-form, not one-off experiments
🎨 20+ animation styles (anime, comics, pixel, manhwa, realistic, more)
🤖 10+ AI models automatically selected per scene
🧩 Specialized agents maintaining continuity and stability
🎁 Product Hunt launch bonus
Create your first full anime video for free. Experience what long-form AI storytelling actually feels like.
We're not replacing professional studios, we're making anime series creation accessible to solo creators and small teams priced out before.
If Runway and Pika are for clips, Elser is for stories.

@ushnos Thanks friend!
Congratulations on the launch!
This looks like something you could actually publish. Does it support longer timelines without breaking?
Elser AI
@sandy_liusy It can support more than 30mins without breaking
Elser AI
@sandy_liusy Thanks Sandy! Yes, we've tested it on 30-minute videos with 180+ scenes and it stays stable. Built specifically for multi-episode series where consistency matters.
Elser AI
@sandy_liusy Thanks, appreciate it.
Yes, longer timelines are a core focus for us. We start with a script and storyboard, then build the video scene by scene, which helps keep characters and story flow consistent.
That structure is what lets longer projects hold together instead of breaking apart.
Elser AI
@vouchy Yeah, There were so many creators with complete story ideas in their heads — fantasy series, coming-of-age narratives, entire character arcs mapped out. But the moment we talked about actually producing it, the numbers made it impossible. Even a basic pilot episode would cost $30K-50K+. I'd see their eyes light up talking about their stories, then watch that excitement fade when they realized they couldn't afford to make it real. That frustration stuck with me. That's exactly the gap Elser is meant to fill.

I like that this focuses on finishing videos, not just generating clips. Curious how stable character consistency is over longer scenes.
Elser AI
@carlvert That’s the hard part, honestly. Short clips are easy; longer scenes expose all the consistency problems.
Our approach is to treat characters and scenes as first-class objects in a project, not just prompt artifacts. It’s early, but this is where we think the real moat will form as models improve.
Elser AI
@carlvert Appreciate that! Character consistency holds across 180+ scenes and 30-minute videos. We engineered specifically for long-form stability, the main issue with other tools is they "forget" character features after 20-30 scenes.
Elser AI
@carlvert Thanks, glad that stood out.
Character consistency over longer scenes is a big focus for us. We start with scripts and storyboards, then build scene by scene, which helps keep things stable instead of drifting.
Elser AI
@carlvert Thanks, appreciate that.
Keeping characters stable over longer scenes is something we spend a lot of time on. We lock in characters early through the script and storyboard, then carry them through each scene so they don’t gradually change as the video gets longer.
This looks really impressive — especially the long-form animation and video generation.
Curious who you’re mainly building this for right now, and how you see it evolving.
Are you focusing more on pro / B2B users who want powerful timeline control,
or on creators and consumers who care more about speed, simplicity, and easy long-form output?
Elser AI
@tristan_ruan Great question! We're primarily focused on creators and small teams right now, people who have stories to tell but were priced out of traditional animation production. The goal is to balance simplicity with enough control for serious work. Think: easy enough for a solo YouTuber, powerful enough for a small studio prototyping pilots.
Elser AI
@tristan_ruan Thanks for your question!
Right now we’re mostly building for creators and storytellers who want to finish long-form videos quickly without needing a big team or complicated tools.
As the product evolves, we’re gradually adding more advanced timeline and workflow controls for pro and B2B users, especially for larger and more complex projects.
Great Tool. It is really great to us.
My query is
Are voices and music customizable across a long video? Audio voices we can select based on available options? How about the scenes customized sound prompts?
Elser AI
@jesna_sajan Thanks for using Elser, Jesna! Yes, all of these are supported:
- Voices: You can assign different voices to different characters in the cast stage, and they stay consistent across all scenes
- Music: We have a music library you can browse, plus AI-generated options
- Sound effects: We have an effects library, and you can also upload your own custom sounds
All of this is available in the final cut stage. Would love to see what you create!
Character consistency is arguably the biggest bottleneck in ai video generation right now. Seing a tool specifically tackling this for long-form storytelling is huge!!! Congrats on the launch! and curious, regarding the 'script -> video' pipeline, does the app currently handle ai voiceover generation and lip-syncing directly from the script, or is the focus purely on the visual storytelling layer for now?
Elser AI
@huseyingungor Thanks Huseyin! Yes, we handle both. You assign character voices in the cast phase, then during storyboarding, dialogue and voiceover are automatically generated from your script with full lip-sync, including multi-character scenes. So it's truly script-to-screen: you write the story, and the platform handles visual and audio production in sync.
