About AniShort

AniShort is an AI-driven, end-to-end collaborative platform designed for the industrial-scale production of short dramas and other video content, primarily targeting professional creators and creative teams. The platform integrates the entire creative workflow, from script creation and storyboard generation to video production, intelligent editing, and team review, into a single, cohesive system often described as the "Feishu of the AI short-drama world." AniShort's core technology enables the automatic conversion of scripts, even up to 100,000-character novels, into detailed storyboards and subsequent video scenes, drastically reducing production costs and timelines. The company claims its system can lower production costs by over 85% and increase efficiency by more than tenfold, allowing a small team of three to produce a 100-minute short drama in just three days.The platform was globally launched in March 2026 by its parent company, Nanjing 8.8 Digital Technology Co., Ltd. (八点八数字). 8.8 Digital, founded in 2014 by CEO Geng Guangxing, is a national high-tech enterprise with over a decade of experience in the AIGC field. Before launching AniShort, the company had invested tens of millions of yuan in R&D, developed the XMEN.AI digital human generation model, and holds nearly a hundred core patents in AI digital human technology. This deep technical background allowed 8.8 Digital to pivot its expertise into the burgeoning short-drama market. The launch was met with significant market traction; within three months, AniShort secured nearly 100 million yuan in financing in June 2026, a record for a domestic AI short-drama tool that year. The platform reported monthly subscription revenues approaching ten million yuan with a 500% month-over-month growth and an 85% user repurchase rate.AniShort's business model revolves around subscriptions and providing a comprehensive production system that solves key industry pain points like high costs, long production cycles, and inefficient team collaboration. It integrates leading global AI models like Seedance 2.0, Gemini, and Deepseek to power its services. A key feature is its "3D Director's Console," which establishes a stable 3D space to ensure character and scene consistency, addressing a common problem in AI video generation. The platform is aimed at creators and production teams, offering a system for scalable content creation and resource management. Creators can also publish and monetize their content on AniShort, receiving 70% of revenue generated from user payments and ads.
