Volta Studio is an AI film and microdrama production platform, from script to final delivery. You write the script in a real screenwriting editor, break it down the way a production office would, build the shot lists and the schedule, then generate stills, video and voice directly from the shots themselves. It is the production, not a chat window: every page knows about the others, and everything leaves as ordinary files. The premise is that the movie in your head should not need a studio budget to exist.
One studio. Every department.
Everything a film or a vertical series needs, from the first line to the delivered file: the script, the breakdown, the characters and locations, the shot lists, the schedule, the cut, languages and delivery.
Every page is a real page.
Not a chat window with a film-shaped prompt. The tools a production actually runs on, each one aware of the others.
Every model. One crew. Zero API keys.
The best image, video and voice models, wired into your shot list. You spend tokens; Volta holds the keys. New models land the week they ship.
It remembers the whole story.
Every copilot shares one long-term memory of your project: the bible, the beats, every scene, your notes, and what you decided last week. Every answer names the passages it came from.
Films are not made alone.
Invite the people you actually work with into the project and choose how much of it they get. You see each other work, in the same script, at the same time. A studio goes further: the whole crew on one budget, with roles, review and sign-off, and a nightly backup.
Yours, in formats that open anywhere.
Write it, plan it, generate it, cut it, then take the whole thing away. Everything leaves as ordinary files, or as a timeline for Premiere or Resolve, so nothing you make here is locked in here.
Common questions
What does open beta mean for me?
It means you can sign up today with no waiting list and no invitation, and everything you can see works: writing, breakdown, shot lists, scheduling, generation and the community. It also means Volta is young and ships most weeks, so you will occasionally meet a bug or find something has moved. Telling us is the fastest way it gets fixed, usually in days.
Is my work safe while Volta is in beta?
Your projects, scripts and generated files are stored the same way they will be after the beta. Work in a studio is also copied every night to a locked backup in a second European location and kept for 30 days, a deleted project waits 30 days in Recently deleted, and everything exports as ordinary files that other software reads, so nothing is trapped here. Volta is where the work is made, not its only archive: keep your own copies of anything you would hate to redo, which is good practice with any tool.
Will prices change when the beta ends?
Plan prices and token prices can change at any time, in beta or after it, because the model providers change theirs. What never happens is a retroactive change: a new price applies only to what you generate afterwards, and the charge for any generation is the one shown before you ran it.
What happens if something breaks and I lose tokens?
A generation that fails after taking tokens is refunded to your balance. If something else goes wrong, tell us in the Discord, where the founder reads everything, or email support@voltastudio.app and a person answers.
What is Volta Studio?
Volta Studio is an AI production platform for films, series and microdramas. You write the script, break it down into characters, locations and props, build shot lists and a shooting schedule, and generate stills, video and voice from the shots. It covers everything up to the shoot, plus a community to publish into and a place for finished films to screen.
What is the best software for making an AI microdrama?
Look for software that plans the season, keeps one cast across every episode and finishes each one in 9:16. Volta Studio does all three, from script to final delivery, with a choice of video models paid from one balance. The guide to choosing microdrama software compares it with the other tools.
Does Volta go from script to final delivery?
Yes, for AI films and series. Write or import the script, break it down, plan and generate the shots, cut the episode, add captions and languages, and export for each platform. Anything with filmed footage is handed off to Premiere or Resolve to finish.
Can Volta make a hybrid series with real actors and AI?
Yes. A Hybrid project keeps filmed and AI shots on one shot list and one schedule, records consent for real actors, and hands the filmed footage to your editor.
Who is Volta Studio for?
Filmmakers, writers and small production teams making short films, features, series and commercials, whether the finished thing is shot on a camera, generated, or a mix of the two. It assumes you know how a production works and gives you the real documents rather than a simplified toy.
How is it different from an AI tool that makes video from a prompt?
A prompt box makes one clip. Volta makes the production around it. The script, the breakdown, the shot list and the schedule are real linked pages, so a generation starts from a shot that already knows its scene, its characters, its location and its look, instead of from a blank line of text.
Can I plan a scene in 3D before generating it?
Yes. The Stage puts your location in 3D, with stand-in figures for the cast and a camera for each shot on a timeline. You block the scene, record a guide, and the video model follows it, so a take keeps your framing and your set. A scene can also skip all of that and be made the regular way.
Is Volta Studio free?
Opening an account is free, and the production pages are free to work in on every plan: writing, breakdown, shot lists and scheduling. AI is the part that costs: copilots, AI tools and generation are paid in tokens, a little for words and more for pictures and video.
Do I need my own API keys?
No. Volta holds the model contracts and the keys. Every model in the shelf is reachable through the same interface and paid from one wallet, so there is no separate subscription per model and nothing to configure.
Can a whole production team work in Volta?
Yes. The Studio plan puts a team on one pooled budget priced per seat, with roles and what each member works in, review and sign-off in the Review room, a budget per project, recorded consent for real actors, two-factor sign-in and a nightly locked backup. Reviewers and viewers join free.
Who owns the work I make in Volta?
You do. Scripts, boards, shots and takes belong to you, and everything exports as ordinary files that other software already reads, so your project is never trapped in the tool. Note that AI-generated material carries its own copyright questions in most countries, and those are yours to weigh for your own project.
