Looks awesome! Do you plan to support templates? We'd love to add voice bots to https://botmakers.net.
@agamanyuk that's the secret plan! Our app makers already built a few ready to use :) We definitely need to chat 😉
@vasili_shinkorenko sounds good, let's start with something simple and see how It goes. We have good organic traffic for alexa skills on chatbottle.co, I believe there is a demand.
What's the pricing model? Can't find anything on your landing page and I would like to know in advance to the registration.
@farbodsaraf right now Storyline is totally free and will remain free for that functionality. We are adding PRO plan with new features like API and modules very soon, stay tuned! But that's a good point, we'll add that to website, thank you @farbodsaraf!
Wow, this product is 👌👌👌
Reminds me a bunch of Twine (https://twinery.org/) - the text based non-linear story creator, but you guys have managed to take something similar to that and allow users to create Alexa apps!
@kevinguebert Thanks, Kevin! Yea, I've used Twine before, it's great, but we're taking it to the next level 🔥
Request for product: Someone please make the Goosebumps Choose Your Own Adventure books from 3rd grade into Alexa voice apps
Amazing! Congratulations on the launch, guys! I know it was a long way for you - and I am so excited to see your well-balanced, mature product released. Grow fast!
Thanks for sharing Storyline, @chrismessina!
Hey everyone, welcome to Storyline! 👏
15 years ago, when I was watching Star Trek, I was amazed.
They could literally make machines do something using only their voice.
Now, it’s happening everywhere. There’s no doubt that voice applications are going to completely change the way we all live our daily lives.
But the creation of voice apps is still broken.
We believe that you don’t have to be a developer to share your story and create a presence in the emerging voice space.
We keep complex tech behind the scenes and make it easy to create, test, and publish voice apps in minutes, using simple mind-map interface and pre-built templates.
There’s no need to code anything and setup servers.
And this is all available today!
Sign up for Storyline and let us know if we’ve simplified the process of creating voice apps.
P.S. check out our special template for Product Hunt, it’s fun and has a question about @rrhoover! 😉
@vasili_shinkorenko Nice one, thanks! I've just set up a simple app to ask my kids in the morning if they're feeling happy or sad, and respond accordingly (with a 'great! have a fun day' if they're happy, or a joke if they're sad). I can't wait to try it out tomorrow morning! There's a load of potential in this!
Congrats on the launch, guys! I’ve been looking forward to Storyline for some time now. Can’t wait to use it 🙂
@juannikin thanks! You can start from creating an app from Product Hunt template, it's only available for a few days 😱
This is so cool! I built and shipped an Alexa app in under 15 minutes. This is the future. Thanks guys :)
Congratulations on the launch, @vasili_shinkorenko and @maximabramchuck! You know my Echo Dot is on the way. I'll get started as soon as it's here. ;)
@arunsathiya really excited about it, let me know if you'll be stuck with something, would love to help!
That is so cool! Congrats on launching it. Have been playing around with it a littlebit and the user interface is one of the most convenient ones I've seen around 🙌 Now just gotta build something useful on it!
Are you planning to build something where we can send the response to an API, parse it and get Alexa to send a response.
Pros:Simple to use and a easy to understand Interface.
Doesn't take much time to setup and get started
Cons:How do I use APIs? Couldn't figure that out yet.
You guys are on 🔥. Congrats on a successful launch! My guess is that Storyline will dominate voice apps market. Looking forward to making my first Alexa skills app without coding 😎
Excited to build something!
Pros:Super Simple. Makes it so easy for a beginner to work with Alexa.
Cons:None.
The simplest of interfaces, nice work! How do you anticipate connecting to 3rd party services?
@matthew_clementson that's the most requested feature right now! We are going to integrate with Zapier first and give you an ability to create an API module right from the canvas (like @mygooglespreadsheet). Then you'll have another tab where you can set up & customize these API modules
@vasili_shinkorenko nice, I think Zapier opens a lot of doors very quickly.
Looking forward to see where it's implemented within the UI.
Which useful usecases have you seen prior to allowing 3rd party integrations.
@vasili_shinkorenko Any way to get on a notification list for when this is in place? It's really not useful for me until you have this, but I want to remember to give this a try then.
@vasili_shinkorenko Would love a way to query an API and parse the JSON response. Your UI for setting up the flow is great, but maybe take a look at Losant's UI for parsing JSON when the time comes. But this is definitely the easiest method I've seen for creating a skill.
Congrats on the launch guys! The interface looks really nice and it's really easy to use. Literally everybody can build a voice app now :)
Ingenious product! Glad to see more and more startups catering for the non-techies out there who have a passion for development and want to execute ideas in the tech space, but lack the skills to do it - well done guys!
Used this to prototype an Alexa skill. The tool was fit for purpose and easy to use.
Pros:Great tool! Easy to learn.
Cons:N/A.
I had never previously built an app with Alexa, but now I have one live on the Alexa store. I am non-technical. It is awesome.
Pros:Makes Building an Alexa app as easy as 1, 2, 3
Cons:Nothing
This is such a simple tool to design conversations. I remember following a workshop on chatbot summit in Berlin from Amazon. So complicated with github etc... this is flawless! Great 👍 work!
