SceneCraft is a web-based platform that helps educators transform instructional ideas into interactive stories that students explore through a digital narrative environment.
With SceneCraft, teachers design narrative-driven learning experiences by entering ideas for a story that fits their instructional needs and classroom contexts. The system generates scenes, characters, dialogue, and other story elements based on the prompt provided.
At every stage, teachers review, revise, and guide the AI-generated content.
You review, revise, and guide the AI throughout the entire process. SceneCraft is a co-authoring tool — your expertise and instructional goals lead every decision.

Create dialogue for each scene.
SceneCraft creates a downloadable script and a shareable link to the final story.
Use the link and script to play through the story with your students.
