  • A comprehensive design system and component library tailored for storytelling workflows

  • Intuitive UX flows that seamlessly integrate AI capabilities with human creativity

  • Collaborative features that enable team-wide story development

  • User-validated interfaces based on feedback from leading game industry professionals

  • A scalable MVP that demonstrates the platform's potential
