When storytelling meets animation, it's easy to imagine how it would turn out to be. Podcorn co-founders Agnes Kozera and David Kierzkowski have proven that this can happen in the blink of an eye.

With the launch of Storiaverse, the newest short-form entertainment platform, users can enjoy reading short stories like never before.

We usually read stories in digital print, but witnessing how the characters "literally" move throughout the scene is a creative discovery that is unique to our minds.

A New Era of Storytelling

Storiaverse attracts a lot of people who are into adult animation and graphic novels. If you're a fan of either of these two, you know how it feels to peruse your favorite story from a digital book.

What's good here is that the app offers a diverse range of original stories, presented in an engaging format designed to captivate audiences and bring narratives to life.

At the heart of Storiaverse lies its innovative "Read-Watch" feature, according to TechCrunch.

This patent-pending format aims to appeal to visual readers while offering a refreshing twist on traditional storytelling.

An Abundance of Original Content

With its launch, Storiaverse introduces 25 captivating titles spanning various genres, including science fiction, fantasy, horror, mystery, and comedy. There's more room to explore different stories depending on your preference. The sky is the limit to satisfy your kid-at-heart longing to read stories.

Partnerships with Industry Leaders

Storiaverse has forged strategic partnerships with industry giants like HarperCollins to adapt popular book series for the platform. Collaborations with TikTok sensation King Science and other independent creators further enrich the app's content, promising an entertainment experience you've never seen before.

Empowering Creators

In a period where creators seek new avenues to showcase their talent, Storiaverse presents a lot of opportunities for artists. The platform not only offers creators an additional revenue stream but also provides a supportive ecosystem for collaboration and growth.

Pioneering Monetization Strategies

Drawing inspiration from successful platforms like TikTok and YouTube Shorts, Storiaverse explores various monetization avenues, including ads, merchandise, and subscriptions. The company also considers integrating product placement into videos, offering creators diverse ways to monetize their content.

Empowering Creativity with Storiaverse

Driven by a vision to democratize storytelling, Storiaverse welcomes submissions from writers worldwide. Accepted writers are paired with talented animators who breathe life into their narratives, fostering a dynamic community of storytellers and artists.

"There is a vast community of independent writers who often struggle for recognition and compensation. We believe their content can be invigorated in a more modern format to reach new readers," Kozera said.

She added that animators and writers' fees depend on various factors. The complexity of the story and its length can dictate how much these artists will receive from them.

Unveiling the Creator Suite

In addition to fostering collaboration, Storiaverse is developing a Creator Suite to empower creators with valuable insights and monetization opportunities. This suite promises to redefine the way creators interact with the platform, providing a toolkit for success.

At the moment, the available stories you can find in the app are the following:

• The End of the West
• The Kelpie
• A Night at the Park
• A Last Taste
