Serial work: what each tool documents about continuity
What Novi AI gives you for a whole season
Novi AI states that when a character is created the system locks their appearance, and that consistency is then maintained across the entire project. Serialized mini-dramas are said to be creatable from scripts, novels or story outlines. As of 2026-09-22.

The three season-scale steps, for Novi AI. Read from the vendor's short-drama generator page on 2026-09-22.
Inclusion rule. The same three steps are recorded for every tool here. A step the vendor does not publish is recorded as nothing published rather than inferred from the interface. Order. Fixed step order, identical on every tool page.

Every tool on one step, with Novi AI marked. Rows read between 2026-09-12 and 2026-09-22.
Inclusion rule. Tools whose public pages describe at least one of the three season-scale steps. A tool silent on this particular step keeps its row, marked hollow. Order. Alphabetical by tool name.

Two things are named in that sentence: an act by the user, and a moment at which the lock happens. Knowing the lock lands at creation tells a producer that the time to get a character right is before the first shot, not during it, and that a character invented halfway through a run is a new object rather than an edit to an old one.
The scope given is the project, which is the same scope most of this file works in. LTX Studio is the exception that scopes its cast wider than a single production, and the difference decides whether a returning series rebuilds its lead or reuses it.
Fig. 5 Knowing when a lock is applied tells a production when a mistake becomes expensive to correct.
3A novel as an accepted input is a statement about volume
Scripts, novels and outlines are listed together. A novel is two orders of magnitude longer than a scene, and a product that accepts one is claiming something about how much text it will read before it decides where the episodes fall. Nothing on the page says what it does with that text, so the cell records the claim and not a mechanism.
Length is given as under a minute to several minutes, which is a range rather than a frame. No aspect ratio appears anywhere on the page, so a buyer planning for a vertical app is left inferring the shape from the samples, and the field page for the shape of a deliverable explains why that inference is not safe.
Each reading below takes one column, quotes the sentence this vendor published on it, and says what the sentence declines to settle.
Novi AI on the cast — The lock is placed at creation time and the span given is the entire project, which makes the moment of the lock the interesting part of the sentence.
Novi AI on the split — Serialized mini-dramas are stated to be creatable from scripts, novels or story outlines, with the input list precise and the split itself undescribed.
Novi AI on the shape — Short dramas are stated to run from under a minute to several minutes, with nothing anywhere on the page about the frame they are delivered in.
