CineMe
CineMe lets you see a film before it is made. The UK-owned, AI-native platform turns a concept or a script into a production: everything needed to see, shape, cost, sell and make a film or series, derived from the source material and held in one collaborative hub.

CineMe is a UK-owned platform for AI-assisted film and television production. Built on a proprietary control layer, CineMe converts a screenplay into a structured story canon that defines each character, location, costume and prop, and holds them consistent from scene to scene. That canon drives every output on the platform: visual development, storyboards, image and video, script breakdown, scheduling and budgeting. CineMe Create gives independent creators a cloud studio for original films and series. Slate brings the same capability to production companies and studios across development, pre-production, production and post. Both run on CineMe’s model-agnostic control layer, with a full audit trail supporting chain of title. Founded by BAFTA- and Emmy-nominated filmmaker Dan Hartley and former Amazon Prime Video UK Managing Director Chris Bird, CineMe is based in London. cineme.ai | ops@cineme.ai
