The projectionbooth.
Your settings, for your library only. Films are made free by the StoryReel Studio — or start at once with your own Claude key. Pick your defaults, carry your library to another device, and meet the voices.
The terms
Used only for your books
Only films you make from this library use it — never anyone else’s requests.
Stored encrypted
Encrypted on the server and never shown again in full — only its last four characters.
Films start immediately
No queue: Claude starts adapting Part 1 the moment you press Make it a movie.
You pay Anthropic directly
Usage is billed to your Anthropic account. Every studio shows the estimated cost before you start.
Library ID
There’s no account: a private cookie ties this browser to your library. Keep the ID somewhere safe — it’s how you get your books back on another device, or after clearing your cookies. Anyone with it can open your library, so treat it like a password.
Films are narrated by Kokoro, a neural voice engine running on this server — no third-party speech service. Every character gets their own voice, the narrator gets the best one, and exported videos include the narration.
Switch between Natural and System voices, pick an accent and the narration speed from the Voice menu in the player.
- Your library
- Private. Your books and films are only shown to browsers holding your library ID — nobody else on this server can list or open them.
- Studio requests
- Only the parts that get made. The text of the parts being adapted is processed by the StoryReel Studio — Claude, run by this service’s operator — and the finished screenplay is added to your library.
- Your own key
- Sent with your key, to Anthropic. Book text goes to Anthropic’s API, again only for the parts that get made. Your key is stored encrypted, used only for your books, and the browser only ever sees its last four characters.
- Offline preview
- No AI service at all. It runs on this server from the book alone.
- Voices & score
- Made here. Narration is generated on this server by the natural voice engine (or your device’s own speech voices), and the score is synthesized live in your browser.
- Quizzes & cards
- Stay in this browser. Quiz answers and flashcard progress never leave it.

How it works
From pageto screen.
You don’t wait for the whole book. See it on the homepage
One
The book
Drop in a DRM-free EPUB, a PDF textbook, or plain .txt and .md course notes. StoryReel reads the chapters, the figures and the metadata into your private library.
Two
Part one
The first twenty-five pages or so become Part 1 — free through the StoryReel Studio queue, or right away with your own Claude key. Stories get a cast and scenes; textbooks get a teacher, a board and quizzes.
Three
The rest
Press play as soon as Part 1 lands. While you watch, the next parts are made ahead of you — like a video buffering — and read aloud by natural voices.
