Looking for a simplified, affordable alternative to Boords? You’ve come to the right place.
With Plot, the online storyboard maker, you get an all-around more intuitive option that can deliver what you need for half the price.
Here’s a list of 5 key benefits you’ll get from switching.
1.) Over 50% Less expensive
Plot costs over 50% less and doesn’t funnel you into complicated pricing tiers as your needs increase. If you have a team of 5+ on Boords, you would instantly save at least $600/year by switching, because Plot currently offers all it’s features on a base plan of just $10/mo or $90/year.
2.) Unlimited Collaboration
A big part of storyboarding is working with other people. That’s why Plot lets you invite unlimited team members, clients and colleagues to review and leave comments on your storyboard, without funneling you into new expensive pricing tiers. There’s also a Public Links option built-in, so you can share a read only version of your project without requiring people to signup or login. View a sample project.

3.) Less clutter, Easier to Work With
Designed with everything you need—and nothing you don’t—so you and your team can focus on what’s most important: your story. Plot keeps onscreen elements and buttons to a minimum to give you (and your collaborators) a distraction free work area. The simplified look is welcoming to those that aren’t as familiar with the storyboard process so they can make reviews in confidence. Overall movements such as window resizing and edits also feel much snappier.

5.) Flexible image creator
Upload your own images, paste graphics from other websites or quickly draw your own, no matter your experience level. The built-in tool offers incredible flexibility for artists and non-artists alike, by allowing all layers to be moved and edited even after they’re placed.

5.) Make outlines in seconds
You can transform your script into a perfectly formatted storyboard by adding scene breaks with a shortcut; all while keeping context of your narrative from toolbar on the right. Even if you delete a scene, your script will simply be moved to the scene next to it. This flexibility let’s you experiment with dicing and chopping your story into all sorts of configurations until you get scene placements just right, without a bunch of tedious copy and paste.
