Hi everyone!
My name is Logan. I'm the maker behind Story — thanks for checking it out!
I started building Story because I felt that all the major productivity tools and project management apps seemed to have a fundamental problem.
Which is that while many of these tools do a great job at helping you organize and control "WHAT" you are doing. (Creating and prioritizing tasks, making assignments etc.)
None of these tools seemed to be built from the ground up to help you connect with "WHY" your work really matters.
That's what I felt was missing from so many of the work experiences I was a part of, "Why do these tasks matter?"
I built Story because I think meaningful work is less about "creating tasks and making assignments" and should be more about feeling like you're playing a necessary role in a bigger story.
So I spent 10 years working to deeply understand what's wrong with our current paradigm for work, and how it could be changed to make work more meaningful for everyone.
I founded my company (The Elkadeo Way) to build resources and tools to help people learn and apply the principles I discovered in work and life — and Story represents one of the biggest efforts of this mission that I'm excited to share with you!

If I was part of a larger team, I'd 100% buy this. No brainer.
I love your video on your page, I'd love to hear how you made it! I didn't listen with audio but was able to get the point.
This feels like something really important as I see everyone move towards gig economies.
Probably not fitting for a comment here, but while I'm thinking about it...
Maybe we're seeing a move towards (as a founder/owner):
Full time employees - Desperate need for this type of tool, huge alignment needed to avoid principle/agent issue.
Contract workers/freelancers - Don't need this tool, hired for a job.
Agencies - Hired specifically for X or Y, nothing else.

Thanks for the launch and creating such a thought provoking tool!
Hey @esus thanks for checking out Story! It's great to hear your thoughts and feedback.
Regarding the video, I have a background in video production and used and Adobe Illustrator and After Effects workflow for most of the graphics and animation. Thats also me doing the voice over 😅
Yes, love your thoughts on the future of work. Different people in different situations will want or need different levels of context and connection. In cases where you have more fluid or creative teams, you can take advantage of more of those emergent 'role building' features like what's shown in the video. And in situations where roles and expectations are more defined and straightforward, you could easily run things that way as well. My hope is people discover the tool has the flexibility to help support them in telling whatever story it is they are a part of. Thanks for your thoughts Esus!

I love how Story app zeroes in on how each team member starts with vision and the why behind their role for the shared goal. 25 years, working for 7 different managers, all with varied styles of assigning tasks has always felt it was missing the key elements to stay engaged. Story truly feels different. I am really excited to see how this tool changes how my team connects and works towards our shared vision!
This is seriously unique app! Thank you
Whoa! This seems interesting. It's like giving a meaningful purpose to regular activities. Tech savvy HRs and product managers would probably love it. Best wishes!
Very intriguing. Purchased the lifetime membership. Think it will work great for my marketing business throughout its growth. Love the concept and looking forward to exploring it in depth!
@leisha_volmer_montoya Thanks Leisha! I love that so much. The video focuses a lot on the context of using this in a work team, but it's totally something you can use to help organize your family life too. Anything where a person has a story they want to help tell 😊

Last week I went to a meeting for an activities committee that I am a part of. We are planning a Christmas musical program and a New Year’s Eve party etc. An app like this would really come in handy for helping a large group of people manage, who is doing what, and when!
