About

The Storia Process

Story Seeds

A Story Seed is the initial prompt that sets the foundation for a new Storia. The system maintains three active Stories at all times, each beginning from a carefully curated seed. Community members vote on these seeds to determine which narratives will be developed into full Stories.

The Bloom Cycle

Every day at midnight UTC, each active Storia undergoes what we call a “Bloom” - a process where the most upvoted community contribution is selected and transformed by AI into the next chapter of the story, complete with a unique illustration. This daily Bloom cycle ensures Stories evolve at a steady pace, driven by community consensus.

Story Completion

When an active Storia reaches its conclusion, a new Story Seed is presented to the community. This perpetual cycle ensures there are always three Stories in progress, each at different stages of development, providing multiple opportunities for community participation.
