Pocket FM-parent launches webcomic platform Pocket Toons

Pocket Entertainment, the newly restructured parent company of Pocket FM and Pocket Novel, has launched Pocket Toons, an AI-first comics (webcomics) platform that uses AI to transform storytelling and content creation.

AI-powered studio Blaze! enables creators to produce high-quality, episodic content 20 times faster than industry standards, all while slashing production costs to just a third of the usual.

According to the company, Blaze! automates complex processes such as background rendering, scene composition, coloring, and quality control, allowing artists to focus on storytelling and character development rather than production bottlenecks.

With Blaze!, Pocket Toons claims to release three episodes per day for a comic—where the norm is just one per week. This represents a 20x improvement in speed at one-third the cost. 

Since its beta launch in January 2025, Pocket Toons has gained traction, already hosting over 30 comic titles and achieving strong product-market fit, with users engaging for an average of 60 minutes every day.

To ramp up its next phase of growth, Pocket Entertainment has committed $15 million in 2025 for scaling up Pocket Toons and is targeting $100 million in ARR by 2026.
