Showrunner is an AI streaming and animation platform built by Fable Simulation (founded by Edward Saatchi) and billed as the "Netflix of AI." It lets users create and watch AI-generated serialized animated television shows across genres, acting as directors to write, produce, voice, and remix full episodes within simulated worlds such as Sim Francisco, alongside flagship series like Exit Valley. The platform is powered by Fable's proprietary SHOW-2 model and is delivered as a consumer iOS app and Discord community. Showrunner publishes no first-party developer API; its public site is a Wix-hosted marketing property that exposes the standard Wix Site MCP endpoint for agentic access to public site content.
Showrunner is profiled on the APIs.io network. Tagged areas include Company, Artificial Intelligence, Generative AI, Animation, and Entertainment.
Showrunner’s developer surface includes support and 6 more developer resources.
Create-or-Update Ergonomics could not be measured. We hold no machine-readable contract for
this provider to read, so there is nothing to measure a write surface against. Excluded rather than scored zero:
never-measured and measured-empty are different facts. Publishing an OpenAPI is what makes this facet — and
several others — scorable at all.
Improve this rating by publishing the missing artifacts — every area above can be raised, and the full rubric is at apis.io/rating/. Every facet and dimension name above is a link: it opens that measurement's own page — what it means, the exact checks that feed it, how the whole catalog distributes on it, and the providers at the top of it. This rating is computed from github.com/api-evangelist/showrunner: open an issue to ask a question, or submit a pull request to add artifacts.
