Who We Are
Storyvolt is a German AI startup in the field of AI-based micro entertainment. The company operates the Smart Entertainment Factory (SEF) – an AI end-to-end content engine that automates and industrializes the entire production process of serialized fictional entertainment: from trend analysis, predictive analytics, and idea development, through the production of text, audio, and video, to personalized delivery via digital interfaces.
Storyvolt's content is called LelaShorts – entertaining, fictional series averaging 50 episodes of two to three minutes each, created by Lela Volt, the company's personified AI author. Each series is available in three formats: as text to read, as audio and audiobook to listen to, and as a micro drama – vertical video – to watch. All content is available in any language and can be customized for brands, target audiences, and contexts.
Through a B2B2C model, Storyvolt serves content platforms, streaming services, telecommunications providers, and media companies that want to offer their users exclusive, scalable series content – without their own editorial team and without production risk. Content is delivered via an API or a white-label app.
