About - StorySignage Who we are, where we came from, and what that means for your project.

Our mission

StorySignage helps our customers tell their stories - conveniently, cost-effectively, and in the location and the moment where a visitor asks the question. A label on a wall can only hold so many words. A printed guide is out of date the week after it ships. Today's customer doesn't take time to wade through detailed manuals, guides, or policies to get answers. They listen, watch, and swipe to get immediate answers.

StorySignage puts your exhibit, product, campus, or location's story a scan away: audio, video, documents, or an AI assistant that answers what the visitor actually wants to know, delivered to the phone already in their hand. No app to download, no hardware to hand out, no charging station to manage."

Who we are

Story Signage is a division of Storyopolis Ventures, which with its predecessor has been building content-driven businesses since 2005. Over that time we have started, run, and sold companies across North America and Asia.

Storyopolis invests in content creation and distribution - businesses that help tell stories. StorySignage does exactly that.

Where we came from

Our founders came out of publishing and printing. One of us entered publishing in 1996 and moved to the printing side about five years later; among other things, our team has run large-scale printing and print distribution operations for the world's largest commercial printer.

That background shapes what StorySignage is. We are not a software company that discovered printing. We merged our early experience in online, interactive content with our deep understanding of production, materials, lead times, and what it takes for a printed label to hold up where it is installed.

What that means for you

  • We print and ship the physical side ourselves. Labels, stickers, tags, and posters come from an operation that produces and fulfils orders every day. Most QR code companies hand you a file and wish you luck.
  • Your codes stay in your control. Change what a code points to without reprinting anything. Update your content when your exhibit, your program, your products, your equipment, or your schedule changes.
  • We are built to still be here. Printed signage is a long-term commitment - the tag you mount today should still work in three years. We have been operating businesses for two decades, and we plan accordingly.

Who we work with

Museums, galleries, tours and tourist attractions, and nature centers use StorySignage for audio guides and exhibit interpretation, without the cost and hassle of handset hardware.

Colleges and private schools use it on recruitment posters, campus signage, and admissions materials, where an AI assistant can answer a prospective student's questions at the moment they are standing in front of the poster.

Short-term rental owners, self-storage, laundomats, equipment rental centers, gyms, retailers, and small businesses use it for check-in instructions, house guides, product information, and anything else a guest or customer needs to know on the spot.
