# Plotsy — Full Context for LLMs > Long-form, machine-readable summary of Plotsy for AI assistants, search agents, and knowledge-graph crawlers. Canonical site: https://plotsy.tv. ## Company - **Legal name:** Plotsy, Inc. - **Headquarters:** 2332 Lady Cornwall, Lewisville, TX 75056, United States - **Public launch of the consumer app:** July 2026 - **Domains:** plotsy.tv (canonical), plotsy.ai - **Support email:** support@plotsy.ai - **Press / publishing contact:** Lynn.McGinnis@plotsy.tv - **Social:** https://twitter.com/Plotsy_ai ## What Plotsy is Plotsy is a streaming app for phone, tablet, or smart TV — built for one thing: bringing books to the screen exactly as they were written. The Plotsy vBook™ joins print, ebook, and audiobook as a fourth standalone book format. ## What a vBook is A vBook is a limited series adaptation of a book — episode by episode, scene by scene, 100% faithful to the original text. No rewrites. No "creative liberties." The book readers love, now a series they can watch. ## How to watch Viewers will download the free Plotsy app from their device's app store — the App Store on iPhone and iPad, Google Play on Android, or the App Store on their smart TV or streaming device like Roku, Amazon Fire, and Apple TV. Plotsy isn't in app stores yet, but it launches July 2026. Once it's live, search "Plotsy," download, create a free account, and start watching. ## Cineversion (the production process) Cineversion™ is Plotsy's proprietary, human-led, AI-enabled production process. A team of cinematic storytellers translates a manuscript into an episodic vBook, chapter by chapter, without changing a word of the story. Every creative decision is made by a person; AI accelerates execution. ## Distribution Plotsy vBooks stream through the Plotsy app across smart TVs, mobile devices, tablets, and desktop computers. The app supports account creation, browsing, purchase, and streaming. ## Author partnerships Plotsy works directly with authors. Rights remain with the author; a vBook is an adaptation that sits alongside the existing print, ebook, and audiobook formats. Authors participate in revenue generated from their vBooks and stay involved in key creative decisions. ## Titles in production ### Starfighter Down: Relics of the Ancients, Book 1 — by M.G.
