STORY by never.no

STORY is the latest management platform from never.no, designed for news journalists, sports or entertainment producers as well as brands looking to bring dynamic and social interaction into advertising spots. It was also built with the strong belief that one need not be a technical wizard in order to create and manage social TV. STORY can publish to multiple destinations including web, mobile, apps and leading broadcast graphics systems such as Vizrt as well as receiving traditional broadcast triggers for 3rd party synchronisation via never.no's DCS automation tool. What the market needs today is a product that guides you through the necessary steps for researching, formatting and publishing social segments in an intuitive way, hiding all underlying technological complexities. This is precisely what STORY achieves.
