Who We Are & Our Story
What is Storyboard That?
Storyboard That is an easy drag-and-drop creation platform. We offer a free version and a premium subscription version with extensive abilities. The Storyboard Creator allows people of all skill levels to create amazing visuals for teaching, learning, and communicating.
Started as a desktop application in 2012, Storyboard That has grown into a platform where teachers can create materials and lessons for their classes, students can take ownership of their voice and learning, and businesses can more effectively grow and communicate both internally and with clients.
Our Mission
Our mission is to provide simple and clever visual tools for people of all ages around the world, focusing on the Four Cs (Critical Thinking, Creativity, Communication, and Collaboration) in order to help improve the world's thinking capabilities and potential.
Storyboard That is a small team based in the historic Boston, MA area who are enthusiastic about bringing digital storytelling to everyone, no matter who or where they are. Our dedicated staff includes artists, teachers, developers, and innovators. Whether you're in an office or a classroom, communication and critical thinking is something we believe is paramount to success, and we've created resources to help accomplish that.
Users have made over 25,000,000 storyboards and Storyboard That ranked in the top 1,500 sites in the United States and top 7,500 sites in the world. We may be small and bootstrapped, but we are a very passionate team hitting well above our weight class!

Our Story
Aaron Sherman created Storyboard That as a desktop application. SBT was recognized as a Mass Challenge Semifinalist in 2012, but ultimately the desktop application ended up being a failed project. He re-launched Storyboard That in August 2012 as the web application we know and love today.
Storyboard That received the 2015 Best Website for Teaching & Learning by the American Association of School Librarians. Photos for Class was launched in November 2014 and Quick Rubric in September 2015. Photos for Class was recognized as the 2016 Best Website for Teaching & Learning by the American Association of School Librarians.
In August 2015, the one millionth storyboard was created using Storyboard That! And that number just kept growing and growing. The team at Storyboard That continued to improve the Storyboard Creator and added many resources for teachers to use.
We reached 10,000,000 storyboards in the fall of 2019 and 14,000,000 just a short while later during early spring 2020! We continually add artwork and functionality to the Storyboard Creator to give everyone a chance to create something amazing.
